Do You Like: Hair Loss or Breakage

Black hair tends to grow slower at an average rate of 1/2 inch per month. There is nothing you can do to your hair strands to make it grow any faster, but there is several hair care maintenance procedures you can implement to keep your hair strands healthy and help you prevent breakage and hair loss.



 However, cutting your hair can help it grow faster and make it appear a whole lot healthier since your damaged ends are being removed via your split ends.
The natural spiraled pattern of black hair can appear to grow much slower because it's not stretched out like most other types of hair textures.If properly cared for your hair will and can grow.
 The internal structure of black hair surely makes it more receptive to breakage than other hair types. Relaxing and coloring your hair can add to the possibility of breakage too.
Use hair care products to hydrate and strengthen your hair will help repatch your hair's structure and help minimize breakage. Essential oils help restore your hair's elasticity and strengthen it, at the same time seals in moisture.
Brushing can also lead to hair breakage, especially if your hair is relaxed.

 Heat styling too can actually cause serious damage to your hair, especially if done too often or use excessive high temperatures. When using heat on your hair, you're temporarily altering your protein bonds in your hair's chemical structure and also weakening it's structure.
A good thermal protectant should always be used when you're heat styling.

Although there are many hair vitamins and supplements on the market today to boost your hair growth, this step is optional. Vitamins: B6 and Biotin are both great aids in hair growth. Vitamin B6 is a great supplement as it blocks testosterone receptors at your roots. Way too much of  this testosterone's release can make your hair become thin and also slows down your hair's growth.
Biotin is considered one of the best vitamins to boost hair growth. It's available in capsule form and helps to renew the hair's cell and allows faster hair growth.











The tips of your hair strands are the most brittle and damaged being the most prone to breakage. Relaxing the hair and putting in a pony or a bun using bobby pins to keep your hair in place every so often can help relieve your hair's stress and breakage.



Finally, braiding hair also keeps your ends from being exposed and damaged any further. Small or large braids, are fine. Just keep in mind, keep your ends free of rubber bands so you won't rip out strands when removing your braids. Black hair can be prone to breakage and loss, but yes, black hair can grow. https://facebook.com/5deescollection/
