Other than time and patience, what are some affordable and safe suggestions to spark growth? I emphasize safe b/c I'm a newbie and not quite ready to get into advanced hair care methods.
Scenario: I've been attempting this HHJ for about 3 months but I'm not seeing much progress. Good news is my hair is not breaking, the moisture/protein balance seems in check except I'm not witnessing any growth. I length check monthly and the hair is barely moving; not enough growth to even measure.
Overview (in no particular order):
-Low mani, no comb reggie
-Finger comb to detangle and style
-Brush hair with toothbrush as needed (b/c it doesn't rip out the hair)
-PS (bun) non-stop w/square dancing w/bun placement; take bun down when home; never sleep in bun
-M&s twice daily with whole head baggy for ~1-2hrs at night
-Bee mine (no sulfur) growth serum daily
-Scalp massage 3-4x week for ~5min
-Poo 1x week
-C/W only if mid-week wash required
-DC w/heat @ least 1x week
-Light protein treat weekly by adding it to my DC mixture; hard protein treat 6-8 weeks
-Air dry most times; rarely rollerset; never use direct heat (flat iron, etc)
-Sleep in satin scarf
-Take daily vitamins-->prenatal, calcium and fish oil
-Good water intake
ETA: I exercise at least 5x week. Mainly cardio and some weight training.
Suggestions?
