[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hair is predetermined genetically as to how long it can grow, so trimming it would have some impact then. I would guess the mechanism behind this is that if you get it trimmed more often, there are less split ends. Less split ends would allow the hair shaft to remain healthier, thereby theoretically helping the follicle to be healthier. Vitamin Bs, Vitamin D, and Omega 3s are essential to good health and will help. I was celiac and did not get diagnosed until adulthood, my hair is fuller, thicker, and wavier than it has ever been. Celiac patients can not absorb certain nutrients, so if there are GI or Neuro issues, you could try being gluten free for 3 months and see if that makes a difference. Of course there are medical conditions as well like hypothyroidism, so you could have the doc run some tests if you are really concerned. Sometimes thought, it is just that the child will have really thick hair so it takes longer for it to come in. - Health Promotion specialist and mom[/quote]

That's great. Perhaps we should call the OP and let her know your wisdom - SEVEN months after this thread was started.[/quote]
