100 Strokes a Day

I’m sure every girl has heard the advice:  100 brush strokes a day keeps your hair healthy/makes it grow faster.  

The truth behind this:  Running the brush over your scalp is what’s really helping your hair.  With every stroke, you’re increasing blood circulation, which in turn stimulates the hair follicles.  When the hair follicles are stimulated on a more frequent basis, it encourages growth.  Although the average hair growth is 1/2 inch per month, by practicing this everyday or every other day, you could see a gradual increase in your hair’s development.
