FAQ's Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my hair not growing?
The hair goes through a cycle that includes, growing phase, anagen; the regressing phase, catagen; and the resting phase, telogen. This cycle determines the length your hair will grow to. For example your hair grows to the length of 30cms long. This cycle take approximately 100 days. Once the cycle is complete the hair drops and the new hair begins the going through the cycle. Therefore, your hair is continuously growing but, may never reach your desired length due to the formation of your hair growth cycle. For longer or thicker hair, hair extensions are recommended. They can be attached using various non damaging methods to your own hair such as sew-in, clip-in, and loops. Regular conditioning treatments, scalp massage and exfoliation can help hair to grow and using heat protection products when using hot tools is also advised to minimise breaks and damage.
