Stop making fun of scissors.
Let's start with this one and get it over with: Yes, trims appear counterproductive, and it might seem more effective to consume a spoonful of if every day, but you should still trim your hair occasionally. Trims remove accumulating damage and split ends that cost you money in the long term.
The standard benchmark is around every eight weeks, although it doesn't have to be a rigid, recurrent appointment. Just be mindful of your ends, especially if you frequently heat style, color, or have a coarse texture, and make sure your stylist is only removing what is necessary when you see them. Request a dusting (baby trim)! Or if you'd rather give it a try.
And perhaps spend less time on it.
If you frequently shampoo, think about taking a break from cleaning supplies when you're finished straining at labels. If your hair and scalp are left feeling squeaky-clean, you may be depriving them of natural oils. This can make your hair brittle and prone to breakage, and it may also explain why it has remained the same length for months.
Stop That Towel Thing, please.
Do you still use the towel trick? Flipping your head over and standing up with a stylish turban is a lot of fun, but the fabric rubbing, twisting, and strain on your damp, extremely fragile hair is not good for hair growth. Instead of rubbing, try blotting with a softer towel, like one made of microfiber. If you have curls, try the cotton T-shirt plopping technique. If you're a real purist, try blow-drying your hair exclusively with air.

When you're done straining to read labels, consider taking a break from cleaning goods if you frequently shampoo. You can be depriving your hair and scalp of natural oils if they feel completely clean after washing them. This may also be the reason why your hair hasn't changed length in months and may make it more fragile and prone to breakage.
Please stop doing that towel thing.
Use the towel technique anymore? While it is entertaining to stand up and flip your head over while wearing a fashionable turban, the fabric's stress on your wet, extremely thin hair is bad for hair growth. Try blotting with a softer towel, such as one made of microfiber, as opposed to rubbing. Try the cotton T-shirt plopping technique if you have curls. Try only using air to blow dry your hair if you're a true purist.
