Hey LilMizzD, welcome. First off, I'm pretty certain that your hair is growing, but just not *retaining* the length. How are your hair ends? Do you notice any short broken hairs coming off? Make sure there are no splits and be super gentle with your hair.

I don't know how you style your hair, but it's best to use the least amount of heat possible. I don't use any heat, except for when deep conditioning.

Moisturize everyday or even twice a day with a product that is water based (water as first ingredient). I would also ditch the Super Gro.

Have fun reading all the info here, you'll get tons of advice.

yes i do notice short broken ends coming off. I usually just wear it in a ponytail but sometimes it's hard for me to moisturize my ends because they are so thick. i do not use heat that much i only use it like once every 3 weeks.

Ok, if I was you I'd do a protein treament for the breakage and to strengthen your hair. One that I've used and like is Hi Pro Pac. Do a search for more recomendations.

Also, do you relax?

 

[LilMizzDede]

yes i relax

Welcome to LHCF! I'm also 14. I agree with moisturizing with a water based product. Probably keeping your hair up in a protective style, like a bun or french roll, will help you out a little more because your ends are not exposed to the air. HTH
