The key to growing your curls

If you think your hair grows faster in the summertime, you are right.  The human body has to work harder during the summer months to cool you down.  This is because of faster cell division, which is the result of more efficient blood circulation throughout your body, which leads to faster hair growth.  You hair can grow up to 10 percent faster in the summertime.  The key is to maintain this growth by keeping your hair healthy.  

You can do this by:

1.  Keeping your hair conditioned and out of the sun.  The heat from the sun can wreck havoc on your curls, which leads to breakage and lack luster tresses.
2.  Whenever possible, AIR DRY!  Blow dyers, flat irons and hot rollers can cause split ends, which means more frequent trims.
3. Which leads me to my last point, if your hair is damaged, you MUST GET RID OF IT.  Don't be afraid to trim your split ends, your hair will grow back.  If you don't trim it now, you will have to cut more off later.  Damage only increases in time....it doesn't go away.

Whether your hair is curly or straight, the key to growing long hair is having healthy hair.
