That depends on how you treat it. The hair is ALWAYS growing, it's just a matter of retaining length. Healthy hair grows about 1/2 a month. The trick is, keeping all that growth and preventing it from breaking off. Here are some tips:
*Wash your hair regularly with sulfate free shampoos.
*Moisturize your hair regularly with a quality leave in conditioner.
*Seal in your moisture with oils (as needed)
*Protect the ends of your hair by cutting back on heat styling and wearing hair in protective styles (like buns and ponytails)
*Trim your hair as needed to get rid of split ends.
*Eat a healthy balanced diet and take vitamins
*Deep condition your hair regularly
*Do protein treatments to strengthen the hair.

why black people have short hair?

Black people may choose to keep their hair short by trimming it often, but their hair can grow quite long. Since it is extremely curly, or kinky, it appears shorter than it actually is. If you consider the huge Afros of the 60s and 70s -- think Angela Davis -- then you will get a good idea of how long the hair of an African-American can be.
