I use this with the shampoo and scalp serum. With curly hair especially, I don't want to be skipping conditioner while I'm trying to keep the hair I already have healthy.

I've been using this for about 5 months and I've noticed some of my baby hairs starting to fill back out. I'm definitely sticking with this one and seeing where I get with it.

I've been using this and I really like it. It's one of the bigger things I've added to my hair-growth routine, and I like that I can just put it on and get on with something else while it's doing its thing. The Essential is designed for 25-minute ses...

I've seen this one recommended so many times for thinning hair that I had to put it on the list. I'd be interested to see how it compares with the products I'm already using, so far it feels so nice and refreshing!

This one isn't a hair-growth treatment, but keeping the hair I already have from snapping off is pretty important too. I'd rather grow healthy hair than grow it just to have the ends breaking off.

Especially with curly hair, I don't want to be sleeping on something that's roughing up my hair all night. A silk pillowcase is an easy little switch to help reduce all that friction and breakage.

I've got curly hair, so I'm trying to be a lot gentler with it. A proper microfibre towel is much nicer than twisting my hair up in a big rough bath towel.

I'm trying to grow my hair longer, I need to keep the ends from snapping off before I get there. This is more about strengthening the hair I've already got and keeping it in one piece.

We have hard water here and this has actually helped with the dryness and flakiness on my scalp. I noticed a difference after adding a filter, so this has definitely stayed in my routine.

Much less aggressive than attacking curly hair with a normal brush. I use things like this when my hair is wet and needs detangling without pulling through every knot.
