I've been reading from several websites that the best way to increase your hair growth rate is to stimulate the scalp to bring more blood near the roots, therefore increasing growth. So, my thought is, what if there was a product that massaged your scalp while you slept at night? If you could get to sleep with it on your head, wouldn't that reasonably be a good thing to do to keep blood circulating in your scalp? Since most of the body's repairing and growing goes on during prolonged, wouldn't it make since to sort of "boost" your hair growth by something that could bring blood flow to the scalp? It would be awesome if the product actually worked and sped up a person's hair growth rate... I'd buy it.
Any feedback on this subject would be greatly appreciated!
You're assuming, of course, that no one using the product should be prone to turning over while they sleep. Otherwise, I sure as hell wouldn't want to be the one who wakes up with a machine knotted into their hair.
;)
Lol! That'd be horrible!
Well, let's just assume that the machine was designed so that it wouldn't get tangled in your hair... Do you think this is practical? Think how cool it would be if it actually worked...
Maybe... but my first thought on seeing such an ad would be that it was nothing more than a scam to feed on people's hopes of growing long hair faster. I honestly doubt having something massage your scalp during the 6-8 hours worth of sleep the average person gets at night would do anything to stimulate growth. About the only thing anyone could be guaranteed is waking up with a very tender scalp (ouch!).
I don't know about you, but even I couldn't tolerate a 6-hour long massage.
hehehe
Good point... That would be too intense.
lol... Just thinking about that cracks me up...
I don't know...
either it would keep me awake...or grow my brain...hmmmm...
On ETLHS (email list for The Long Hair Site www.tlhs.org) someone posted a couple years ago information from a hair growing pamphlet that was circulated in the 60s or 70s I think. Instructions included pulling and yanking to stimulate the follicles.
Since they say increasing bloodflow to the scalp can possibly increase hair growth, HEAT would also do that. After all, they do say that your hair grows faster during the summer for that very reason, right? Therefore, I wonder if simply wearing a hat might increase hair growth speed since your scalp would be hotter. Hmmmmmm....
Hmmm... Good idea! I seriously wonder if that would work...
I think I'm going to start wearing my stocking hat to bed. It might get a little too toasty, though... I'll try that for a month and measure my hair on November 1 and see if it increased my rate of growth.
Ok! I'll let you know how wearing a hat during the day works for me. In fact, I'll be posting a couple of pics here soon to show my progress.
