Heat tools aren't the only things that can damage your hair growth and ends

Stop pulling on your hair and damaging your follicles by using a bath towel to wrap up your hair. A regular towel is too much weight on your scalp. You need to invest in a good absorbant hair towel if you want your hair to grow!

Stop stressing out your scalp when you tie up your hair. Give your head some relief and get a good quality Teletie! These are the only hair ties I will use as they don't pull out my hair and they don't add additional stress to my scalp.
