Long hairstyles - The good, the bad and the.. you know the rest.... For anyone stuck with a celebrity inspired short hairstyle they regret...
follow the long hairstyles or long haircuts and "growing your hair long" advice from the experts because ``I hate my short hair'' are words familiar to many women.
 While a long updo hairstyles or a jessica simpson long hairstyles looks great after a professional blow dry with plenty of styling product, it is difficult to perfect that straight, glossy look at home, let alone cope with it falling in your eyes.
So, for anyone trying to grow out their latest Jennifer Aniston (Kate Moss and Geri Halliwell were also part of the bob fad) hairdo here's some advice from the experts.
HAIRDRESSERHair grows about one centimetre a month. Trichologist Philip Kingsley, an expert in problem scalps, says this can be increased by 10 per cent.
But for those with fine hair, Kingsley says, they must keep it trimmed every six weeks otherwise the hair splits up the shaft, stunting growth.
Stylist Rachael Nau says a trim every 10 weeks is enough to keep hair looking good while allowing it to grow. Nau also says it's best to avoid colouring hair as ``the more bleach and tints you put in, the worse condition the hair will be in because of the chemicals''.
Perms and waves are also out if you want to keep your hair in peak growing condition. Kingsley points out hair will grow to a certain length and stop and that everyone's hair grows at different rates. However, during summer hair grows more rapidly.
HOLISTIC APPROACHHowever good a diet is, stress stops the blood flowing through the body efficiently. If the circulation is sluggish, minerals and vitamins cannot be absorbed properly and the growth rate is slowed and that's not ideal if you are considering long wavy hairstyles.
Anxiety can also lead to the body releasing hormones that block the hair-lengthening process. Tension in the neck, shoulders and jaw can decrease the blood supply to your head, says London-based Dr Jaimini Raniga, nutritionist and holistic therapist.
People trying to grow their hairstyles long can try relaxation treatments which involve loosening up the muscles with gentle massage. Yoga promotes better breathing techniques. This, in turn, clears the head area of mucus and stops the blockage of essential vitamins and minerals hitting the right spot.
Getting a good night's sleep is also important if you want to have want for instance a long updo hairstyles. Stylist Rachael Nau says: ``Hair grows at one centimetre a month and there's not much you can do to speed that up. ``Stimulating the scalp to get the blood circulating is about the only thing you can do and you can give yourself a head massage.''
SUPPLEMENTSHomeopaths often prescribe silica or sepia. As each patient requires different treatment it's best to have an individual consultation. Raniga suggests for long bangs hairstyles or any fashionable and "current" 2010 long hairstyles taking silicon supplements and adding coral calcium granules to a daily intake of two litres of drinking water, as this balances the Ph level of the body. Ayurvedic herbs can also promote hair growth. And aloe vera taken in juice form will give slow but visible results.
NUTRITIONHair will grow more efficiently with the right nutrition, Raniga says. She advises clients to eat organic, fresh food which will have maximum nutrients for healthy looking hairstyles.
Long hair and in particular, long bangs hairstyles, requires a good diet that should be high in vegetables and fruit and low in junk foods for good hair health. The body does not view hair as being essential, so when the diet is lacking the right nutrients, hair will suffer, Kingsley says.
Shane Brennen, of Advanced Hair Studios, agrees and says a healthy lifestyle including regular exercise, eating well and not smoking will help hair growth. ``Smoking is the number one culprit,'' Brennen says. ``Smoking will make your hair go fine and suck the life out of it. ``In women, because their hair or hairstyles are longer, they get a wispy and ghostly look to their hair and you can tell they have been smoking.''
CHEATFor those desperate for 2010 long hairstyles or long wavy hairstyles there is the option to fake it. Good quality hair extensions look realistic and last three months. However, having them attached takes about four hours, involves uncomfortable braiding and paying $1000 to $2000.
