Unfortunately, trimming your ends does not contribute to the growth of your hair. The truth is, hair growth starts from the root, and cutting the ends does not help the hair follicles that are responsible for the growth of your hair in any way. Trimming only helps to reduce the look of split ends and not hair growth.

Shampooing your hair regularly helps to keep it clean and fresh. It also helps the hair to absorb hair growth products better, which can aid in achieving an improved growth rate. This <\/span><b>hair growth myth<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is busted. Wash your hair regularly.

Rather, more often than not, the so-called hair growth oils cause pores to become clogged; in other instances, they cause folliculitis and dandruff to form. Our hair has its own oil, commonly known as sebum. This helps to keep the hair moisturised, protects the scalp and keeps your hair strands smooth to improve shine and minimise frizz.
