I'm a slow grower... nothing is working...

[yuhlovevybz]

Hey ladies. Ok so more than a month (5 weeks ago) I got my hair dyed. If I can get my phone to work I'll post a picture of now. I have less than a quarter inch of black roots showing so I can visibly see how slow my hair is really growing. Hair normally grows .5 inches a month. Mine has grown less than half average. I am doing EVERYTHING.

I'm retaining because my hair does look longer.

I take supplements (hair skin and nails, chlorella, fish oil, silica, msm).

I work out and do yoga.

I drink tons of water.

It's not that it isn't retaining, it's that it's not even GROWING. So now what? Do I just deal with the fact my hair is never going to grow back? It's just gonna be short forever? Or take forever to reach my goals. It's not fair. erplexed

Sorry I don't have any tips to share at this time. Here are some threads that might be useful.

Slow Growers Unite!

Slow Growers Unite!! -- hilarious that these two OPs did not use the search function and they started basically the exact same thread.

Any slow growers out there?

Never say never. Happy growing.

all I can say is that they say the average hair grows a half a inch a month not all, some grow slower and some grow faster. and some people have growth spurts out of nowhere don't worry, maybe for some reason majority of your hair is in the telogen phase which I don't see how when only ten to fifteen percent is suppose to be in that phase at a time

A watched pot never boils

I stopped focusing on my hair,and was focusing on my weight...that's when it snuck on me and started growing..

I'm a slow grower as well. It sucks.

One awesome thing that I've discovered lately is inversion. Normally, it takes my hair three months to grow an inch doing inversion, I got an inch in one week! There's a thread called something like "One inch in one week? Real or bs?"

I posted my result pictures in there.

Check out these videos, I got all of my inversion information from these two ladies:

BellaMarie I'll be doing inversion for the second time this Saturday. You only do it one week per month.

My hair grows 1/4 inch a month as well. I have worked out, taken supplements, growth oils, haven't seen much of a difference. I think I'm destined to have slow growing hair.
