Whether you are transitioning to natural hair or have simply decided to grow your hair long, it is a process that requires patience and consistency. Growing natural hair requires regular moisturizing and upkeep. If you are transitioning from relaxed hair, you have to choose whether to do a big chop and cut off all the permanently straightened hair or cut off the relaxed end gradually as your hair grows out.

Steps to grow your Natural Hair
Clean Hair – A clean scalp promotes healthy hair growth by removing build-up, dead skin, and other unwanted debris. Cleansing more frequently than once a week or twice a week is perfectly fine if you’re using a gentle sulfate-free cleanser.
Moisturize Your Ends – A lot of times we pay less attention to the oldest part of our hair, the ends. They are the last part to receive moisture and product, but they are the first to lose these things. In addition to trimming split damaged ends, you should apply your product from ends to tips. Always, always moisturize and seal your ends.
Trim Your Hair – Although getting regular trims to cut splits won’t make your hair actually grow faster, it will keep tips looking healthy and prevent splits from working their way up strands, requiring you to chop hair off more often.
Use conditioner every time you shampoo – Conditioner helps replace the lipids and proteins inside the hair shaft as well as seal the cuticle to help prevent more damage from happening so that you can get your hair to grow longer and look healthier.
Apply an oil or mask treatment weekly – Hair that touches your shoulders or beyond can be several years old and most likely needs more care than normal conditioner. Using oil weekly on the hair fills the strands with fatty acids required for hair growth.
