    OK i know how ya feel i have the same problem, but i tries these tricks and they work real good!

    1. Scalp Massage: helps stimulate hair growth

    2. Remove scalp residue: Reduce scalp residue as it clogs hair follicles and hinder faster hair growth. Weekly hair rinse with a mixture of equal amounts of apple cider vinegar and water helps remove scalp residue and dead skin.

    3. Flip your hair upside down: Flip your head over for about 2-4 minutes daily. This may sound weird but it tends to stimulate hair follicles by reversing the flow of blood.

    4.DO NOT shampoo your hair too often and do not try to brush wet hair when striving for faster hair growth to get long hair. It is better to comb semi-moist hair with the help of a wide teethed comb.

    5.Daily wash your hair with rosemary water.

    6.Hair trimming to remove split ends.

    7. Diet matters!Nutritious diet consisting of foods rich in B vitamins, proteins, iron etc is a highly recommended solution to the query of how to make your hair grow faster and longer.

    So, replace your empty calories with healthy foods like spinach, beans, broccoli, green bell peppers, lettuce, milk, fish, strawberries, avocados, tomatoes, bananas, apricots, yogurt, soy products, oregano, flaxseeds, nuts, whole grains etc.

    Ok i know thats alot to consider doing but they really do work!

    Good Luck!! :)

    Try a Vitamin that helps your skin and hair like Fish Oil, or Try Nioxin, Its a supplement to help hair skin and nails. I tried it and my hair grew faster and healthier. Only problem is when you stop taking it -- it will stop feeling as healthy. You can find them on Amazon.com. Also rubbing Oils on your scalp help to stimulate growth!

    Your hair still may not be as long as you wish but then you can consider extensions then, but i'd use those tips first!

    Goodluck!

    (Also do no dye or bleach your hair while growing it -- it will only weaken and damage your hair and cause it to break at the ends.)

    Soak your hair in olive oil for about 30min. before you take a shower each night.I also take those pills that pregnate women take it doesnt only allow your hair to grow but it strengthins it!Also getting it trimmed never hurts.Make sure to drink lots of water and take many vitamins that helped me a lot ,dont use much hot products or hot water on your hair because belive it or not t ruins it badly and you dont want that.Anyways,if not that you can always buy luxious exstensions!!!!

    Hope this helped(:

    I read online that to get your hair to grow longer, you should get more blood to flow to your scalp. So try ponytails at the nape of the neck so it doesnt weigh you down, hang upside down, massage your scalp. Many things work. I also recommend Google. Type in How to grow your hair long quickly or something similar.

    And if you need to you can get extensions

    Yes you can grow your hair before school starts, but in order to do so you need to start school in Aug of 2012. Hair just doesn;t grow that fast. Get used to it and it'll get longer after it grows.

    One way to make your hair grow a little bit faster, is to comb it alot, spreading the natural good oils in your scalp throughout your hair, making it grow faster. Salon workers told me this, i googled it and it turns out to be true. that is the only thing i know of that would work.

    i heard that the *horse* shampoo Mane N Tail helps hair grow fast (No joke, my mom had me use it when I was little and my hair was past my waist).

    Also, avoid using heat products to keep your hair healthy. use a shine spray or a silk spray to keep it looking healthy and shiny. it'll grow out eventually, don't worry :)

    eat healthy foods, don't use hot styling tools (like hair straightener, curler, etc) too often, massage your scalp, get plenty of sleep and if you want you can use a shampoo to make your hair grow faster. i recommend F.A.S.T Shampoo and Conditoner (i use it, works great!) you can buy it at Great Clips :)
