Who would have thought a scheduled trim at your hairdressers could help the overall growth of your hair? Well, according to one hair expert, doing just that can actually help the growing process of your luscious locks.
Yep, cutting your hair actually benefits the growth of it because it’s removing the dead ends, says Katie Allan, creative manager at Charles Worthington. ‘These dead ends can occur through heat, colour or chemical damage, or just because it’s old hair,’ she said. ‘If you don’t trim these ends, your hair could split and travel up the hair shaft, leaving you with dry, brittle ends and possible breakage.’
And if this happens, your hair will be getting gradually shorter and not grow to your desired length. Plus, if you leave your split ends for too long before visiting your hairdresser; they may have to cut off much more than anticipated!
But what else can you do to help the growing process of your hair?
1. Ensure your home hair care products are professionally advised. ‘Speak with your hairdresser to see what products they recommend for your hair type,’ Katie said.
2. Invest in a good hair serum. ‘Feed your hair follicles with an extra boosting hair serum to help encourage healthy hair growth,’ she recommends.
3. Stimulate hair growth by gently massaging your scalp while washing your hair.
