UPDATE: The challenge has ended and the results are posted here.
Hi Lovelies,
Get ready, get set, to retain inches! We are challenging our staff and all of you to join our summer hair challenge! Starting April 1st and ending on July 31st, we want everyone to grow two inches of hair. Hair grows ½ inch a month so four months theoretically should render two inches.
Here are the rules:
- Take a daily vitamin or hair and nails supplement (check with your doctor first)
- Limit heat usage
- Utilize more protect styles (buns, updos, etc.)
- Massage your scalp daily for 15 minutes
- Deep condition every time you clean your hair
- Drink water daily
- Intake more fresh fruits and vegetables
- Exercise daily for at least for 30 minutes
Now take a picture of your hair length on April 1st and measure it. Then on July 31st take another picture and measure. This will help you accurately determine your hair growth.
Feel free to leave encouragement in the comments and save this page for further updates! Happy Hair Growing!
Can I still join it? If not, please keep me posted about upcoming challenges and competitions. I follow almost all tips you shared in this article, except supplements. I’d really appreciate if you share a few hair and nails supplements.
Hi Miranda! Sure you can still join. We will be sure to talk about supplements soon.
Sadly I was not able to join in when you started this! The rules you shared were also tips I found useful for my own personal hair care! I’ll definitely keep this in mind. I really do love keeping my hair looking healthy and radiant.
I’m just seeing this article in late April, but I’m going to see what difference it makes this summer. It is so easy to get discouraged when growing out your hair, as two inches doesn’t feel like much on already long hair, but every inch counts! I’ll have to try some of these tips as well!
