Yes, most sources say that hair growth slows down with age.marie170 said:Do you think a woman's age has something to do with her hair growth?

desperategirlie34 said:Has anyone over 30 grown their hair from always being short to long after joining LHCF? If so, how long did it take?
marie170 said:Thanks HoneLemonDrop....I am about to be 36 and I just joined a couple of months ago. I wonder if the statement could be true about women over 30 that perhaps don't take good care of their hair. Kinda like how when we are younger we can eat eat and eat and maybe never gain a pound but as we get older, we can't do that.
HoneyLemonDrop said:I know exactly what you mean. Maybe if I had the experience of growing my hair when i was younger, i may have been able to see and record the differences...and as far as the weight thing, I too was one of those people who could eat whole refrigerators(sp?) and remain 105 pounds, I managed to pull this off until I hit 30, ...
HairPhoenix said:I had the same question as marie170 on my mind when I read this. Metabolism and fertility slows in a lot of women in their 30's, but I am pretty sure hair growth is not affected. BTW, did you know that your hair continues to grow for some short period of time after you die? I know it's morbid, but I remember hearing this fact one day. Your question made it pop into my head.

PecanSandie said:What a wonderful and encouraging thread!! All of this time I had been lurking, figuring that I was one of the older women on this board. It's nice to know that we are here in all age ranges. I'm 33 and starting a journey of my own. Thanks to all who have posted. Also, if any of you (especially Sherry and HoneyLD) could post or PM me with your successful regimes it would be greatly appreciated. In 3 years I hope to have a gorgeous album and inspirational story to share.
PS. The weight thing is no joke, especially when you tack on a couple babies in your late twenties and early thirties. I am currently killing myself w/ Pilates (but I love it) to get into shape!
