for relaxed hair: i have this problem but i think you need to just handle it as gently as possible - this means no raking hair brushes or combs from roots to ends; instead, comb through hair very gently and work through tangles with fingers. use a deep conditioner weekly (moisture is your friend!) and only blow-dry when hair is 90-95% dry, using above detangling/brushing technique. sleep on a satin pillow case and/or wrap a satin scarf around your head at night to avoid tangles and breakage around your hairline.

shea butter is a miracle worker, but use it sparingly as a moisturizer. and try to keep products to a minimum - find one or two (i use a hair serum and shea butter sometimes), as product buildup can further dry out hair and cause it to break.

keep ends moist.

Why black women's hair grow slower than white women?

an African American's hair grows slower because of the strand being so curly. it coils in the hair follicle make the hair harder to come out. a cacausain woman's hair doesnt have the same texture and coil as of an African American's. if an African American would like their hair to grow a lil bit faster. you should get braid, corn rows to pull the hair out of that coil.
