Hi I've being growing my natural hair from a big chop 4 years ago and my hair has stayed the same length for over 2.5 years. My current length is 6 inches (6 inches in 4 years.). Also I am having breakage at my crown and I have been babying it since November and it has only grown 1 inch and some areas only a cm in that area (in 8 months.) It is also very rough, dry and sore no matter how much I keep it moisturized.
I have been taking good care of my hair like I've learnt on the boards, ie deep conditioning, protein when needed, satin pillowcase, only combing wash days, co washing and shampooing once a month sometimes twice a month with a sulfate free shampoo, keeping my hair moist and the odd trims when needed.
Last year I discovered I had Psoriasis but only on my body not my scalp. Do you think that has anything to do with it with it being auto immune related?
Please help I know it's not due to breakage as my roots grow in gray I am 48 and I hardly notice any growth at all say 1 cm a year. My sister is 52 and her hair is flourishing she gets her 1.5 inches every 3 months I know coz I am the one who dyes her gray hair. I am at my wits end.
