Your hair does continue to grow even with split ends. Trimming split ends just makes your hair look more even at the ends. The split ends tend to dry up and look ratty. Split ends do not prevent hair from growing.

Does picking your hair make it grow faster?

Not sure. But hair grows from the bottom (aka the ends of your hair) So having your hair trimmed once in a while will help it grow faster Hope this helps :) ************************* Hair does not grow from the ends. It grows from your scalp, from the roots. Hair grows based on the nutrition you give your body and of course genetics plays a big role in how fast hair grows. Trimming helps to eliminate split ends, but does not make grow faster, that's only a myth.


Does cutting your hair help it grow?

Trimming the ends of hair improves the health of the hair by removing split ends. If split ends are not taken care of, they make split further up the shaft of the hair. When this happens, the ends of the strands of hair are more likely to break off. By trimming, you are preventing the ends of the hair breaking off and the hair is allowed to grow longer. It doesn't improve the growth of the hair on a biological level, however; hair grows at the same rate and only fluctuates with changes in diet.

Is hair grows faster when it cuts at the end?

Yes,because at the end of each hair,split ends start to develop,so this prevents hair growth.It is better to cut the tips,so your hair will grow out. //Actually, the ends of the hair has no bearing on the rate of growth at the roots. Whether or not the ends are split will not effect the actual growth which originates at the hair folicle. However, trimming the ends periodically makes the hair appear healthier since hair that is split, dry or broken off is removed, reducing the 'frizzy' look that damaged hair so often has.
