Jenn’s Gem: Is it true that hanging your head over the bed for five minutes a day helps hair grow faster because of the blood rushing to your head? The Left Brain’s response:
Sorry Jenn, but that’s a myth. All that will help you grow is a headache! Hair growth isn’t just about blood circulation. It has to do with the chemistry of what goes on in your folicles, the tiny tubes beneath the scalp where the roots of the hair are. There are some drugs that can affect medical causes of hair growth – if you want to learn more, you can read our previous post on hair growth products. You can also read about how to make your hair longer by reducing breakage and splitting.

I have written several articles on the myths associated with hair growth, especially those that pertain to women of color and “ethnic” hair. Isn’t it amazing that people still buy into such far flung misinformation?
I just LOVE this blog! Keep up the good work!
