How We Grew Her Hair 12 INCHES

[@thia2345]

FINALLY another stylist who advocates less trimming if you're growing your hair out! 😂 I sometimes feel so alone in my advice.

[@tinawarren7275]

I like your thinking 👍👍

[@vastya.3255]

Yes, as long as you pay attention to your ends, you can start trimming way less often than they recommend, the 6-12 weeks they recommend should be for damaged hair that is transitioning to thicker healthier hair while maintaining the same length

[@gwene.4726]

I totally agree! Less trimming and pay attention to the scalp health and strands 💕

[@Saffins]

I only trim once a year. I take care of my ends and my hairstylist complements my hair health

[@haleybee123]

Following that old advice, my hair never went past my shoulders and I couldn’t figure out why until I stopped getting regular trims 🤦‍♀️ I used to think my hair just would not grow past that point!

[@kanvaarchana]

1. Don’t trim as much 2.rosemary doesn’t help 3. Length of the hair depends on health is the hair - strong ends will have the hair grow longer 4. Correct heat styling will grow your hair over air dried hair - straight sleek hair is better 5. Washing hair too much - thrice a week is a lot 6. Wash your hair every 3 days 7. Healthy ends = healthy mids= healthy roots= trinity routine A. Roots ~ shampoo conditioner and clean B.mids ~ lock moisturiser with leave in conditioner after towel drying hair- brush through the hair with detangler C.Ends~ after blow dry use hair oil - few drops in palm and apply only on ends to look polished . Very small amount on mids. - on other days as well.

[@mayatenshi]

Thanks 😌

[@amberenriquez6105]

I think point 6. was allow three days between touching up with heat styling.

[@KTFRabbit]

The hair oil he uses in the video is more of a silicone-based product than an oil one. Some people like this but some prefer to stay away from silicones.

It always plateoud at shoulder length. Rosemary made a big difference but diet also played a big role. And also following this guy's advice.

[@sbryant6797]

Curly hair girl here, I was laughing when I read the routine (wash/condition/leave in) because that is what I do just to get my hair manageable. And have for years. I am adding the Olaplex oil on day 2 to my ends. I’ve been drying my hair near my scalp (flipped over) and letting the mid and ends naturally dry. I can go a week. Go slow on the oil because too much is too much. I don’t section my hair to dry because 1) I’m not straightening it and 2) I don’t want to separate my curls too much. I mostly cup my curls and dry. I do put two smaller claw clips on the top of my head so my hair doesn’t dry flat. And yes, I have accidentally gone to the store wearing them. His shampoo and conditioner recommendations have been good for my hair. Not too heavy. I am curly/ wavy when long. 2c when long 3a when shorter. I haven’t found a good gel or cream for definition that doesn’t leave it heavy and/or crunchy. I would love to see a curly video from Chris.

[@JanetUK]

His advice is GAMECHANGING! My fine dry hair is in great shape now! My biggest changes: wash only every five days; dry by wrapping hair in old soft cotton tee shirt and let it soak up moisture without rubbing hair while I do my makeup; following his shampooing and styling advice…but since I began oiling the ends to mids every night with inexpensive (6.00) Hask Argan Oil before bed…WOW!

This will work, just give it a little time.

[@Aphrodite01]

Curly hair tangles more and gets single strand knots. See how your hair is at 2-3 months and see if you need a trim. 6 months might not be beneficial for your hair.

I think waiting to trim every 6 months may be a bit much for some of us to achieve, particularly if you have Type 3/4 hair. I would trim every quarter and see how you get on. But if your ends are good then no need to trim that often either.

[@NYC1025]

Thanks for the tips. I wash my hair every day for two reasons: 1. My scalp hurts to the point where my jaw and head hurt when I don’t wash every day. I know it’s odd but it’s real. 2. My scalp smells like sweat and my BF can’t stand the smell when he’s next to me (I live in south FL and the smell is regardless if I sweat or am indoors all day.) Do you have any advice or should I just keep doing what I’m doing? I have 2c curls. Stopped using heating tools over two years ago when I noticed the scalp pain and smell. Used anti fungal shampoo but it didn’t do anything. Started using your recommended Boston Products and Pureology Leave-in. Now that’s my daily wash routine.

[@ALT-vz3jn]

This is all fantastic and accurate information. I stumbled across a hair routine just like yours by accident back in 2021. I managed to grow out my hair by 8 inches in a year, and it’s overprocessed with highlights and a base color that’s 2 shades lighter than my natural color. I did have a couple of trims to get rid of the breakage, so now it’s 12 inches longer than when I started. I’ve been 6 months without a trim now, and my stylist showed me how you can still see the line of the last trim, I didn’t need one. My secret weapon turned out to be the Pureology Strength Cure Miracle Filler Spray. I used that as my leave-in and some oil at the ends (Lanza Keratin Healing Oil), and I used a heat protectant when blow-drying (Redken). I also chelated my hair once a month to keep the hard water mineral buildup away. I will try the Pureology Color Fanatic spray, I’ve heard good things about it. But their Strength Cure spray literally saved my hair and gave me the longest hair I’ve ever had in my life. The bar is set high now 😂

[@katrinakee726]

Every time I get my hair cut I tell the stylist to only cut about one inch of hair. It always seems like they cut about four or five inches though! They cut my hair when it is wet and it draws up and my hair is always sooo much shorter than what I want! So frustrating LOL! And my hair never seemed to look any better afterward, even though I thought I had all of the split ends cut off. This makes so much sense to me. Thank you so much!!!

I have noticed less hair shedding since starting this routine, as well! I am not sure how, but since others are commenting the same thing it must be a thing. I’ll take it! ❤

[@jaanal2644]

Couple points where I must disagree: 1. You CAN train your scalp and hair to stay clean for even a week without heat styling. If you absolutely need heat styling to make your hair look nice, then follow his advice regarding heat protectant and doing it as rarely as possible. But heat styling is NOT a must for going longer between washes. 2. Hair does not need or want "moisture" to be "locked in". Studies have shown that hair which the test group described as "healthy and moisturized" was actually the hair with least water content (and has low porosity). Which makes sense, because hair is not supposed to contain or hold water (note how dreadlocks can mold if they don't dry properly). Healthy hair feels smooth because the cuticles are closed and closed cuticles mean low porosity because they block out the water (and everything else) and protect the hair strand's core. 3. What hair product marketing SHOULD be saying instead of "moisturizing", "nourishing" and "hydrating" = conditioning = literally lubricating the hair. Shampoos are designed to clean the scalp and roots but basically any other product works by coating the hair strands in either a smooth residue (to make it feel smooth, healthy and conditioned and to prevent friction and tangles) or a protective residue (to block out moisture to prevent frizz and to hold your hairstyle, or a heat protectant which "takes the heat" and basically sacrifices itself to save your hair). 4. Once you understand the above, it's actually really easy to see that you don't need a million different products. You need something to get your scalp clean, something to keep your mids and ends friction & tangle free and something extra protective for your ends because they're the oldest part of the hair and been through a lot by the time they reach that point, plus when we brush our hair, the ends get the peak of the force. 5. Lastly, hair is at its weakest when wet so (unless your hair is curly) NEVER brush while it's wet, even to apply products in. Wait until it's dry, then add the products with your hands and fingercombing and then very gently brush it out. Adding products only on dry hair also helps to avoid overdoing it and ending up with too oily, wet-looking ends or mids. When your hair is wet, you don't see or feel how much product there is already. Wholeheartedly agree with these tips from the video: - As many days as possible between washes - Using shampoo, conditioner, leave-in conditioner or de-tangling spray and oil for ends - Not trimming too often (only a micro-trim if you really see lots of split ends that would take too long to weed out one-by-one by yourself, OR a proper trim to straighten out the ends if they're super wispy and thin and look bad) - Avoiding heat as much as possible BONUS TIP which I found out while going through some hair research articles (not the ones on websites promoting their products/ingredients and not women's magazines or anything else commercial): Coconut oil was proven to be helpful, both as a pre-wash treatment and applied post-washing. Coconut oil is able to penetrate the hair shaft and in this case (unlike with water), it's actually doing some good in there. It makes the hair strand's core more flexible which makes it less prone to breakage that occurs when the hair is bent. You're welcome 😘

Thank you for the hair advise especially as I have thyroid problem so my hair takes much longer to grow and I loose lots of hair when combing or washing it, so I'm going to take your advise and follow it through I'm excited to grow out my hair longer especially as I read the comments from others here how incredible 😊✨️

[@redmama6564]

Chris you are awesome. Real advice that we needed to hear. I too got off the bandwagon of regular trims every few months. Progress is so slow that way if you want to grow your hair. Like you said, good products and healthy routine is all you need in order for hair to grow naturally beautiful and faster.💕🇨🇦🇬🇧

[@Teresa-wq5nv]

Love your videos! I'm 53 with my hair grown out to the middle of my shoulder blades. And, with this advice it will be down to my butt and healthy as ever in no time! It really is about the shine, bounce & strength.... AND I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT MY HAIR!!! 💪🥳👍

[@tennilledebysingh5819]

When I had medium & long hair, I got a trim maybe twice a year. It grew healthy & fast. Now I have a pixie & want to enjoy this, but also excited to grow it out, as I'm growing out my greys. No dye, all natural, I wash 2x WK, no heat. I would love to see a video on how to care for natural gray hair as it is growing out. It is pretty solid silver in the front & salt and pepper towards the back half.

[@sarahm.8385]

I love your videos. Because of your advice I've seen an improvement in my hair over the past couple months. I've gotten an inch of growth.. in my ends! And I haven't seen that much growth in my ends since I was pregnant.. 17 years ago. Thank you so much 💜

[@lauramcdaniel3164]

Just starting my "healthy hair routine" after stumbling across your channel and watching a few dozen of your vids in the past week. Can't wait to see if I get some length in the next few months. Thanks for the great info, that actually makes a lot of sense!

[@christinakristelova]

Leslie has beautiful hair and it's inspiring to see her progress. Chris says growing your hair out is really easy... sounds too good to be true! Although, I've seen some good results since starting his trinity routine in January and I believe it's the best advice I have found for taking care of my hair, I still haven't seen very much length retention and my hair still feels thin. I've been stuck at the same above shoulder length for years and I am doing everything to follow this new healthy hair journey and hoping for growth. I'm also curious how long it took for Leslie to grow her hair out. I'm also confused as to why I can't keep a style. I have natural unrelaxed hair and on wash day I usually blow dry and flat iron but my hair tends to stiffen up and has no flow to it after I sleep on it. I've tried many different methods for preserving the style at night but nothing works. So those are my hair battles!

[@EtherealOde]

May I ask, do you have black hair? My sister-in-law is black, and every night she wraps her hair. It's kind if odd for a white person who never grew up seeing how black women care for their hair. Bit the basics of it is to brush your hair flat, wrapping it around your scalp as you go. she wears different hair wraps depending on if she is doing an overnight oil...a silk scarf, a silk cap, and something my husband calls a "do-rag" and the last is for oiling nights. She puts a shower cap with terrycloth inside over that so the oil had no chance to leak. And you don't have to be black to do this method to keep your hair straight and sleek. Look up the hair wrap for overnight hair protection and see if maybe it can help you? And maybe stop flat-ironing. Let your hair be natural. Look at a lot of natural styles. You can find something you like, I know it! ^_^

[@christinakristelova]

@@EtherealOde thanks for the reply. I wore my hair natural for many years without using heat and it broke like crazy. I could never figure out how to keep it moisturized and healthy. I tried every method, watched hundreds of KZbin videos on natural hair and I have a product “graveyard.” Nothing worked for me. In addition I live in a country in Europe where there are no salons for African hair. Well, one that is 3 and half hours away and after visiting once, I realized I do my hair almost as good as she did without paying a fortune. I started to blow dry and occasionally flat iron and my hair grew more than it had when I was using no heat. So, I usually wear straightened styles. I may just blow dry for a time and not flat iron. That’s what I just did this past wash day. I also have have grown up wrapping my hair and protecting at night but even after wrapping my hair it often doesn’t hold the style. I just have issues preserving styles at night. :) I will continue following Chris’ routine for this year and hope for the best. He believes you can have healthy hair and heat style when you have a healthy hair routine.

[@jonelle2911]

​@@christinakristelovakeep at it. It may be technique when blow drying? Because some people get the sleekest blow dried hair with medium heat 😮! I have not yet mastered that. Hopw you figure out what it is but I think it's somewhere at the heat treat/setting stage.

[@jonelle2911]

​@@EtherealOdedefinitely! Wrapping works great for my fine hair.

Do you have any tips for managing bangs? Thanks to your advice I finally manage to wash my hair every three days, but for my bangs I still end up washing and styling them everyday. A video on that would be helpful. Thank you!

Ive been trying to grow my hair out for the past few years, and my mom always says, i need to get my hair trimmed more often, and that's the only way it will grow. Ive been trimming my hair once every 6 months if not more the past year, and I'm really happy that its growing. I went from having hair to my ears, from hair to my chest in a year which might not sound like much, but when u struggle to get good hair it makes you happy.

[@SzilviK]

I trim every 3-4 months and my stylist always tells me I need to do it every 3 to 4 weeks . Uiummmm no thanks just do my color please

[@Philly685]

My sister in law is my hair stylist and she is amazing. Constantly taking classes and workshops and I trust no one else with my hair. I am also trying to grow my hair out and as I’ve gotten older, it doesn’t seem to grow as fast. 2 years ago I asked for a trim (not my SIL) and he took all my hair off. It hasn’t grown past my shoulders since! I just recently went lighter and got a trim and went back for a gloss 7 weeks later and she asked do you want a cut too? Before I could answer she said wait we are tying to grow your hair out, right? So we def will wait until late summer at least. Hearing you say don’t cut for 6 months that makes me so happy to hear. It just proves she is listening and knows what I want (I never had a doubt but nice to hear nonetheless) The one thing I need to do is use less heat. It’s so hard bc my hair never seems to stay the next day. Trying to figure out how to fix it.

Finally someone that alignes with my way of styling my curly hair. Many now days suggest to go cutly but I've been straightening my hair since I'm 11 years old and going back to curly is not an easy ride cause my hair simply wont curl anymore. I also rather straight hair. So is always a blessing to find people that teaches how to take care of curly hair that has been going thought heat.

[@trenae77]

I started trying to grow my hair out this fall. Mom insisted I still needed to get trims, but when we went to our stylist, she asked me if she could check it, ran a comb through the ends, and said she was fine with the plan since they were healthy. She’s also been great, picking up the products you recommend at the shop she goes to where she can get her discount and only charging me what she pays. HUGE help, as she can get a large bottle of the Redkin shampoo and conditioner (which she said good call on that) for less than I paid on the smaller bottles from Ulta.

[@dhall75608]

I workout 5-6 days a week and I still only wash my hair once a week. Use dry shampoo if you need to. If I need to rinse my hair only, I still apply my normal conditioner, leave in conditioner and hair oil.

[@pjk1714]

If I have to clean my scalp more than every 7 days, I oil my mid and ends before washing. Let the shampoo run through your hair during rinse but don't lather. Lose protective style during workout or yard work helps.

[@joanna675]

I think your advice is really good - it's very logical, practical and bullshit-free for which I thank you so much. I can see that my hair routine was essentially good apart from the frequency of washes. As I am suffering from PCOS, my scalp (and not not only) gets oily really quickly. I guess it's because I have testosterone sensitivity. I switched from the drugstore shampoos and daily washing to the Redken shampoo you recommend and washing it every second day. It's been a 100% improvement to me (for which I am super grateful) but as you can see, I still don't make it to your standard (wash once every third day the shortest)... It makes me feel sad and very frustrated... I know it's a vicious circle - because I wash my hair so often, they are more fragile. They are super fine by nature which means that they get broken extremely fast. And it's since I remember 😢😢 so I have to trim them every 6-12 weeks to mask the breakage as you said in the video. I so wish I didn't have to because hair is my weak point and the source of complexes since I was little. But it seems that nothing is going to help me :( now I feel I've tried it all your advice included (I follow your advice religiously). Probably because of PCOS, I will always have to wash then every second day the latest and will always have to trim every 6-12 weeks and end up with short hair... I'm sorry for this rant, I just really feel heartbroken now and needed to vent about my situation. Anyway, I truthfully thank you for the good work you're doing, you managed to help millions of people 😊 I appreciate your honesty and great experience

[@Queenieb03]

I can say, I grew my hair for over 6 months & when I went in for a root touch up, my (now old) stylist cut off an inch + claiming it needed to come off. I am now growing my hair back out. Next time, I refuse the scissors! I’m also only going to a curly specialist from now on for the same reason. They really thinned out my ends trying to “layer” it which damaged my curls 🥲

[@dedejazmin1]

It's been 6 months since I found and incorporated your tips to my hair routine. I usually wear my hair natural, though lately I've been wanting to just blow out my hair and use a protective style. I love your channel! I'm currently using the Redken line, leave in spray & the extreme length 😅 (though you don't like it) this routine has been working for me I've seen my hair go past my shoulders to below my collar bone!! 😆❤️ I will add that since I'm a natural type 3c-4a, I need to deep condition bi-weekly & I do protein treatments monthly for the past damage to my ends 😅 Question: How do you feel about deep conditioning and protein treatments? How often would you recommend outside of the salon

[@celia7288]

I personally use the mielle Rosemary oil and I have seen a huge difference in the thickness of my roots and I had a bald spot on my hairline and I am literally 17 and a women so I am not an old man lol and the bald spot is gone after about 3 or 4 months of use it really works for that but for fast hair growth my hair has always grown pretty fast so idk about that

[@judyh3707]

If it doesn't work for everyone else but seems to work for you, its more likely to be coincidence than cause. Heres an example, my hair fell out in clumps after I bleached it, and I thought bleach could be the cause; my hairstylist explained that wasn't the case, so it was more likely because I was losing weight.

[@MaraPT]

The past eight months I've gone from hair falling just below my chest, to being afraid it would be chopped off above my collarbone. My hair has always been hell, but I accumulated so much damage despite not having touched a straightener in years. After watching many of your videos and getting the right products and routines down, I already see such a big difference! I have coarse hair and now that my scalp is actually clean, I feel like I could go more than 7 days without washing. Is that something you would recommend? Or would you recommend me doing the hair routine with the bond repair treatment, shampoo, mask and leave-in once every 7 days?

[@anniewhitmore7627]

HI Chris - enjoying your videos but want to ask a few things. The derm Dr Dray recently said leaving hair without washing it leaves it prone to dandruff, oil, product and bacteria build up which can cause/worsen scalp problems - what are your views about that? Also, I am based in the UK and following your advice for fine, greasy hair I have tried to get the Redken Big Blowout gel and the Redken Hot Sets 22 spray and the former is permanently out of stock and the latter I understand has been discontinued? What advice can you give to those of us in the UK and other products that are available to us of comparable quality and effectiveness? Many thanks!

[@PeaceIsYeshua]

@@Annie, I have the same question about the scalp becoming unhealthy from not washing more frequently.

[@GoBlueGirl78]

He’s said they’re guidelines, but everyone’s different. I watch Dr Dray too! 😊 eg I have a very oily scalp & even following his techniques such as double shampoo, the most I can go is 3 days between washes. If I go any longer, it gets itchy & my eczema/dandruff will flare. So I follow his guidelines on the “trilogy,” plus Nizoral 2% treatment shampoo once a week as well; you just make slight adjustments so it works for your specific goals & needs. 😊

[@username00009]

I tend to produce more sebum so I’m also waiting for him to address this topic, but I haven’t switched to his recommended shampoos yet (I will in the next few weeks). What I did come across though are historical haircare videos, and there is such a thing as a boar hair scalp brush so I’m going to test that out.

[@julespearson]

I've noticed most Derms seem to be ok with more frequent washing. I get eczema and my scalp does seem happier with more frequent washing. I have been trying to go the 3 days and have noticed more hair shedding and my scalp isn't super happy. I guess you need to decide what works best for you. I don't use extreme heat (straighteners etc) very often and my hair is in pretty good condition now. I hear you on the products he suggests. I think a lot of people in other countries are having issues with getting Chris' suggested products. An expanded list would be good.

[@anniewhitmore7627]

@@GoBlueGirl78 I am only able to leave washing my hair to every other day and day two the scalp is oily but I tie hair back loosely in a silk scrunchy because it doesn't look great. I thought perhaps after a coup[e of weeks my hair would 'get used to' the new regime but it hasn't - still oily by day two. I also use Nizoral and Living Proof, Quai Detox. getting hold of the suggested Redken products in the UK has proved to be difficult.

I'm surprised you don't mention sleeping with your hair in a bun or bonnet so that you're not trashing it by rolling all over it all night and breaking it off. I started sleeping with my hair in a loose high bun a number of months ago and now my hair that would never get any longer than shoulder blade is now elbow length. I've now started your Trinity program in the past month and my hair is feeling softer and healthier than ever so I'm having high hopes that I can get it waist length now. Also an added bonus is sleeping with my hair in a high bun gives my hair amazing body the next day

[@petrasabina70]

I agree. I do this too, as well as the Trinity system. The bounce in the mornings when I take the loose bun out is amazing.

[@estherbuede]

I would love to see how you put it up in a bun without making it have creases. I have fine/thin hair and I can’t seem to figure out the best way to put my hair in a bun to sleep in that doesn’t make my hair all messy and have creases?

I couldn't grow my hair past my shoulders until Covid lockdowns! I spent pretty much a year in lockdown (I lived in the most lockdown city in the world!) and surprise, surprise my hair grew!

[@jacquelinepatrick5089]

The trinity plan works. I am so glad I found Chris's channel. The advice that I have gotten from many stylists has ruined my hair. First bleaching highlights destroying my hair, then suggested extensions for more volume. My hair was not getting longer but shorter. You can only imagine the damage to my hair and how much I was paying to destroy it. The lockdowns from the virus - made me realize that I did not need to ruin my hair anymore. I started just leaving it alone only adding toner to take away the harsh color line I had. Since I started photographing my progress my hair is just slightly past my shoulders. When I started my hair was just below my ears. I started in 2020 so it has taken awhile for it to heal.

[@murasaki9]

I started putting end oil on my hair in 1986 and had also gotten a leave in conditioner by mistake when I lived in Japan. I loved both so I continued with them. When I got back to the US, I've used end oil ever since. I washed my hair every single day but it was always very shiny and not very dry. The length at that time was just below my chin as I whacked off my permed ends and went with a straight style. My hair grew down to my butt at one point. However, my hair is extremely fine and now at 60, much thinner than the thin it already was. It's really fine now. I am not washing it daily like I used to. About once a week or even two if I am not going out but once a week. My issue now is that the ends always did get wispy and look bad if I let my hair down so every other year, I'd take off a few inches. The last time I had my hair cut or colored was over 2.5 years ago. I cut around 8 inches off then. I'm still using end oil so I've never had splits. Super rare. But I do get some breakage obviously. I started using a leave in cream conditioner just from my mids down last year. I only blow dry my hair, no flat irons. I only use a curling iron on the top roots to create some semblance of lift, then spray it. However, in the last two years I haven't really been using my iron. I just blow dry, braid it and that's it. I want to try to stop the breakage. My hair is in a braid 24/7 but it's not tight on the roots. I pull it out to loosen that. But I need to keep it up, and a braid is the only thing I know how to do. I'm thinking that I should start using a night time head cover for my hair. I'm also looking into end protective hair buns. If I can learn one, that might be all I need. I'd like to have more body/thickness at the ends if possible. I'm not going to cut it to my shoulders and start over though. Once this cream leave in conditioner by Schwarzkopf is finished, I'm buying the spray on you suggested. Hopefully I can stop the breakage and get more strands to stay long so my ends are fuller. I'm hoping to go to the salon in April for a color and then cut those ends a bit but I want to get it to be lying on the end of my back but have nice ends.
