Really long hair is beautiful and all, but it takes a lot of effort. Either you
shell out for removable fake hair, or you undertake the painstaking process
of growing your own out. The latter is more cost-effective, but requires a lot
of willpower and patience — both of which are often in short supply.
If you want to finally be rid of your bowl cut or grow an all-natural ponytail
that skims your butt while in self-isolation, there are a few things you can do
to help the process along. First, mentally prepare yourself do a lot of
waiting; even more than you already are. Seriously — hair grows up to half-
an-inch a month max, and that’s if it’s in prime condition. It’s gonna take a
while. Next, follow these 15 hair-growth tricks to nudge those leisurely hair
follicles in the right direction.

9. Sleep on Silk
For the thousandth time, encouraging your hair to grow to impressive
lengths means treating it like the fragile baby it is, so start sleeping on silk
pillowcases to cut down on tangles, breakage, and damage, and preserve all
your hard work from following the aforementioned steps. This step is a fun
one because silk pillowcases feel really nice and are good for your face, too.

Vitamin gummies taste delicious and they probably won’t hurt (unless
you’re trying to curb a sugar addiction), but don’t put all your faith in them,
either. “Hair-growth gummies, or any hair-growth supplement for that
matter, have the potential to work, provided there is a nutritional need,”
Burg says. So if you’re extremely stressed, having trouble chilling out, or on a
restrictive diet of sorts, popping some supplements may make a noticeable
difference.
