So the hair growth challenge by organicallyanna

ran from June 1st through September 1st. It mostly consisted of weekly flax gel scalp and hair treatment - I slathered it on my scalp and hair and left it on about 30 minutes before shampooing and conditioning to wash out the gel, and a tea rinse which I did post shampoo and conditioner. The first month the weekly tea rinses I did were green tea, the second month they were nettle tea and the third month they were chamomile. I tried them various ways, such as leaving in at the end, rinsing them out well at the end, leaving them on longer or shorter, etc.  I thought chamomile was supposed to be good for my hair but I seemed to have a lot of hair fall with it which I didn't like seeing as my hair is fine and thin anyway.

As for supplements I used 10 drops of Jarrosil most days

a B complex vitamin (Jarrow B right)  in addition to a multivitamin/multimineral for women over 50, calcium and a vegan Omega 3 supplement. I have used a couple of those, currently using Ovega. I have been taking KAL Uric Acid  flush

because I had an attack of gout at the first of the year and don't ever want it to come back and I have moved to a mostly vegetarian diet because of that. Not sure if that has anything to do with hair growth though.

At the beginning of the challenge my hair measured 18 and 1/2 inches measuring from center part down the sides. I just had a 3" hair cut Sept 20th and forgot to measure it before but measured it after and it was 18 and 1/2 inches again so I got 3 inches of hair growth in 3 months and 3 weeks. I was kind of sad to lose 3" of growth but I had been gradually having bad layering cut off and I think that was the last of it. Layering is not good with fine thin hair when it gets longer. Get it layered, they said, It will look thicker, they said - wrong!
