Tips from our Readers 
- Use the right brush for your hair type to promote growth and reduce breakage. People with curly or wavy hair should use wide tooth combs, and people with fine hair should use a tighter brush.

- There is no quick fix for growing your hair long very fast. Be consistent with how you care for your hair, and you will eventually see results.Thanks
