I am curious too! That's a lot of newgrowth in one month.
I maxed out this month at about 1 1/2 inches. Which is awesome 'cause I usually only get about 1/2 inch.

Hey Soslychic!
I drink plenty of water. Exercise. My vit intake includes 3 weeks out of every month: 12mg of biotin ist week 7.5 mg or biotin the other 2 weeks. I take one week off. I also take either a one a day multi vit or a hair skin and nails formula. I am thinking of giving the hair skin and nails the axe 'cause I noticed excellent results with just my multivit. That's it. I do take my vits on a day and night dose too.

I have been getting anywhere from 1 /12 to 2 inches a month. However, I have noticed that since I have been doing the protein shakes 2 X daily, my growth is much faster. I just braided my hair 2 weeks ago, and I need to take them down and redo them because I know I have a good 1 1/2 inches of growth already!!!! I've bene doing the protein for about a month and a half. I actually use lactaid with soy protein (14 gm of protien/glass), then I add a protein powder to it. So, I think I'm taking in about 25 + grams per glass. The results have been mind blowing. I also take 300 mcg of biotin and 100 mg of B-complex too. I intend to get some Oil of Olay vitamins this weekend...after reading on them, I want to try them. I'll let you know how they are after trying them a few weeks.
DSD, you always amaze me in some way. Keep up the good work!

I wonder though will it stretch out to belong 2 inches once it is relaxed. When I pull the hair to measure I don't stretch it completely. I am hoping that is the case. That will put me closer to my New Years Goal!

When I measure, I do pull the hair somewhat taunt...I don't just measure it without some tension. Hmmm, you may have more growth than you think. Cool

I know since July, I have gotten 3 inches of growth. I don't know if this is typical for me. I don't know if this is some growth spurt, but I will have a better idea over the next few months. It's possible it's a fluke and it will gradually slow down. I certainly hope not!

I only get 1/4 to 1/3" a month. But I have noticed that since I got my hair done 6 weeks ago it looks like I got about 1". So it will make it about 1/2" a month now. And that's good..I usually don't get that. It may be due to my working out 6 days a week now or maybe the Brewers yeast (6 a day or whenever I remember..lol..I bumped it from 3 a day). All I know is if this keeps up I will be a waist length by May 2004.
