Hair Growth FAQ

QUESTION:
"What is the best way to stimulate hair growth? My hair became thin because of medication and I'd like for it to grow back as quickly as possible."

ANSWER:
To get hair growing, start at the root of the problem—literally—and focus on keeping your scalp healthy. Celebrity hairstylist Marcus Francis, who has worked with Kirsten Dunst and Evan Rachel Wood, suggests investing in a treatment like Rene Furterer's Triphasic ($131; beauty.com) to stimulate blood circulation and trigger growth in hair follicles. "Also, when shampooing, try to massage the scalp instead of just cleansing the hair," he added. "The Carthame Oil shampoo by Rene Furterer ($23; beauty.com) is good for scalp health." Francis also suggests taking vitamin supplements like Biotin and Vivascal for assistance in hair growth.
