Now I had a bad experience with the sew in I had, but that was because of the way it was put in. Now that I know the proper way to put in a weave to avoid breakage, which is with vertical cornrows instead of horizontal, your hair can really thrive like this as long as you take it out every 6 weeks. My cousin did this for a few months and her hair grew at least 3-4 inches and maintained it's thickness.
The key is the vertical braids, and not leaving it in for too long.
