Natural Products for Fast Hair Growth
Hair growth depends on several things, according to the Proctor and Gamble website. Genetics play a part, as do hormones and what you eat. Taking good care of your hair is important, too. Certain vitamin and mineral supplements may be helpful. Using natural bristle brushes and natural shampoos may also help efforts to grow hair. Does this Spark an idea?

Natural Beauty Companies
-
According to Karen Marie Shelton of Hair Boutique, just because a company advertises as "natural" does not mean that the product is good for your hair. It may mean that the company just uses as few chemical additives as necessary. Companies such as Aveda, for example, which is owned by Estee Lauder, have noticed that customers only want shampoos that produce suds. This requires chemical additives.
Making Your Own Products
-
Ms. Shelton suggests that the best way to ensure products are natural is to make them yourself. This is an excellent option if you are interested in truly natural products and you want to know exactly what is in your shampoo and treatments. By making your own shampoos and treatments, you can adjust the ingredients to exactly what your hair needs in the moment, and save money as well.

Vitamins and Minerals
-
Hair growth depends on certain vitamins and minerals. Vitamin B complex, antioxidants such as vitamin E, and minerals such as magnesium are important. Natural products such as Epsom salts and Dead Sea salts contain minerals known to be beneficial for hair growth. Epsom salts are extremely inexpensive. Dead Sea salts are sold through many different brand names. They vary in price and quality.
Herbal Supplements
-
Taking herbs that act to change the hormone levels affecting hair growth may help. Certain product lines offer shampoos with supplements to provide the herbs hair needs from the inside and externally. Bio Fen is one such product. It provides B complex vitamins as well as the herbs saw palmetto and fenugreek. Another company sells Hair Renew and Hair Regain for men and women. Each product provides a combination specially formulated for men and women to block the hormone DHT. This hormone may be linked to hair loss, according to Proctor and Gamble's website.
Natural Bristle Brush
-
Natural hair care products such as natural bristle hair brushes are also important to hair growth. According to Hairgrowthpartner.com, natural bristle hair brushes are essential to good hair care and hair growth. According to Jean-Pierre-Productions.com, a website dedicated to hair care, a natural bristle brush will stimulate the oil glands on the scalp, encouraging growth and healthier hair. Boar's bristle brushes have many benefits, including being able to clean the hair shaft while you brush. Vegetable bristle brushes are also available.
Considerations

These are just a few of the natural hair care products to encourage fast hair growth.
