Let’s shed some light on hair growth and how to fully harness it.
How fast does hair grow?
On average, hair grows at a rate of about 0.5 inches per month, or 6 inches per year. However, it’s greatly influenced by genetics, age, gender, season, stress and scalp health. What’s more, half an inch of growth in curly or coiled hair won’t look much compared to straight or wavy hair. And if you’re prone to excess breakage, growth will appear far slower than it really is.The hair cycle
Better understanding the three stages in hair’s natural growth cycle helps identify what’s happening and how it can be boosted:1. Anagen | Active growth, lasting approximately 3-5 years. Around 90% of our hair is in this phase at any given time.
2. Catagen | Transition, lasting 2-3 weeks. Hair stops growing.
3. Telogen | Resting, lasting 3-4 months. This accounts for the 100-150 strands of hair we shed, on average, each day.
Enhancing growth
While scientists continue to study how to prolong or speed up the anagen stage, following a routine that supports across all the hair growth cycle will optimise hair strength, breakage protection and length during and after this active growth phase.Top 3 hair growth tips
