1. 

   Trimming your hair is an important aspect for healthy hair.

   Cut your hair to help make it grow. According to Lucky magazine, keeping your hair trimmed and healthy will help it grow faster and eliminate the chance of breakage. Hair with layers is often more difficult to keep healthy because it splits faster. Keep the ends trimmed often (usually every six to eight weeks). Find a good stylist to help you achieve your goal.

2. 

   A healthy diet promotes healthy hair.

   Eat properly to promote hair growth. It is essential to have a healthy, nutritious diet to have healthy hair. Dairy foods and fish can help with your goal of growing long, luxurious hair. You can also eat foods that contain zinc and iron, such as some leafy vegetables and meat. You might also consider eating foods that contain vitamin E or taking a vitamin E supplement to help with the process.

3. 

   Brush your hair to improve circulation.

   Brush your hair and massage your head every day by rubbing your scalp vigorously with your fingers. Remember the old tip from years back about brushing your hair one hundred times a day? There is still some truth to that. Brush and massage to promote circulation. Use a natural bristle brush to prevent breakage.
