What are some good ways to make my hair grow fast?

if what works or works best. Hairdressers say trim your hair regularly and read once to stimulate your scalp how I forget, probably with a type soft bristle brush or a massage.  
Cheapest place also is Acadamy Hairstyling on 6th and princess doing a $10.00 treatment that they say will help, also the end of your hair from damage. It includes a 3 minutes (i would call it massage) each with the shampoo, the deep treatment, and the conditioner.  
Also to my own opinion is as anything else to have healthy hair

Is right about healthy hair and scalp massage. The massage will stimulate the blod flow and encourage growth, do not brush your hair vigorously that is a myth and will cause breakage. Just massage gently when you wash, and once a day maybe when you are watching tv, even if it is for 5 minutes and this will also give you shiny hair. Try to keep the styling products to a minimum and be gentle and your hair will be healthier and grow faster. Go and get a trim just a trim tell the stylst only the ends, do this when you see the ends getting split and dry. If you have a regular stylist go and get a massage and shampoo from her/him when you can.

Main and Tale shampoo. It's a "pet" shampoo I think lol but it works wonders on hair, makes it thicker and grow better. Lots of people use it, so I'm not just some weirdo telling you to use dog shampoo or something lol google it!!

There are a million commercial products that claim to stimulate hair growth. ALL scams. Hair is dead. Cutting, washing, twirling... it won't do anything to make it grow. Scalp massage to increase blood flow? The scalp is highly vascularized. Ever see a head wound bleed? So forget massage. Hair grows from the root, from the hair follicle. The only way to increase growth rate is healthy diet. Protien rich food. (meat, fish, dairy, eggs). Also stress can decrease growth rates.

How can hair be dead, hair stops GROWING when it falls out. Hair is alive and grows when you massage you increase blood flow and this stimulates growth. Diet is also important but it can also be fruit and vegetables. If people have not been trained in a topic do not give advice. I woud ignore Bigmoe.

The best way I've ever had luck in growing my hair is eating a healthy diet and keeping myself healthy. I use heat protectant when styling with hot tools. Not using hot tools every day. One thing I will say is I do notice is when I drink my Shakeology, my hair and nails do appear to grow maybe a bit faster than normal, but nothing that's instantaneously. But, that being said I am eating quite healthy when I am including my Shakeo.

I find my hair and my nails grow way faster from a high in protein diet and little to no stress (i have a easy no stress way to look at things lol) .... im no expert in this, but am speaking from personal exp.

Get pregnant! Lol  
 
My hair grows really fast when I'm pregnant!

Actually, hair once it is out of the follicle IS dead. Still in your scalp...alive.  
 
I was told that eating gelatin will keep your nails strong and your hair strong as well. Styling products can coat and give it pseudo strength, but your best bet is to keep it strong right from the start.  
 
Hair grows approximately 1" every 6 wks. according to an all about hair book that I read once. Keep it strong by eating healthy, using no styling products and no hair dryers, etc...This from someone with long hair who has been told by a hairdresser that it is nice and healthy with very few split ends.  
 
Good luck!
