There is a list of 2o things to do to achieve healthy hair and/or long hair.
This is a few of them:

1. Start with healthy hair to grow long beautiful hair. Trim, cut off those split ends. Damaged hair doesn't grow, it breaks.

2. Avoid using heating apliances whenever possible.

3. Don't use any harsh chemical on your hair. For color use non-peroxide or henna .

4. Avoid chlorine & saltwater, shampoo hair as soon as possible after exposure.

5. Be very careful of what kind of hair jewelry you use. Never use metal barrettes, never use rubberbands, they will tear your hair when you try to remove them. If you take anything out of your hair and hair comes out with it, never put it back in, use scrunchies.

6. Never put your hair in any style that will put undue stress on the individual hairs, meaning no tiny braids, no extremely tight coils.

7. Avoid extreme diets. Every part of the body is affected by the foods we put in our mouths.
