Ready to grow your hair out finally? Plenty of people dream about having long flowing natural hair, but not everyone is able to achieve that reality.
Naturally long hair is a beautiful thing to have – and it’s a major flex!
TikToker @shaielexis, aka Elexis, shared a video highlighting three tips anyone can follow to grow their hair out to longer lengths. Find her on Instagram @shaielexis.
Tips for growing your hair
Elexis starts her TikTok video showing off her beautifully luxurious hair. There’s no denying the fact that her hair is STUNNING.
Her caption says, “Curly hair can be a little more challenging to grow long, but it’s definitely possible. It just needs the right care and time [heart emoji]. This is the longest my hair has ever been. I thought I’d be good at this length, but now I’m aiming for the booty.”
Elexis says, “I’ve tried everything on the block… the inversion method, scalp massages, the greenhouse method, supplements. I’ve tried a lot.”
Keep up with trims
The first tip from Elexis is to prioritize health over length. She says, “Get those ends clipped!”
Split ends and damaged hair will never grow to the length of your dreams. The worse your split ends are, the less chance you’ll have of growing your hair out.
Elexis gets her hair trimmed every three to four months. That’s a solid timeframe for anyone hoping to maintain healthy hair.
Deep condition on wash days
Whenever you take time out of your schedule to fully wash your hair, don’t forget to deep condition it.
Elexis says, “Your hair needs moisture. It needs love. So, love it.”
Find a deep conditioner brand that works well with your hair and incorporate it into your wash day routine.
Oiled scalp massages
The third tip from Elexis revolves around oiled scalp massages. If you’ve ever heard of this or tried this, it’s time to open your horizens.
She says, “Scalp massages with Rosemary oil and a carrier oil… Rosemary oil has been proven to be as effective as Rogaine!”
Ditch the Biotin
The final piece of advice from Elexis is to ditch your Biotin. You might have Biotin in gummy or pill form sitting on your counter right now, but you don’t actually need it.
“MSM and Vitamin C together is all you need,” Elexis says.
Get ready to forget about your wigs, weaves, and clip-in extensions after following this advice and growing your natural hair out to impressive lengths.
