When I had dreads, it broke at about 4 inches. If you want long straight hair, you really just have to stick to wearing a hat or cover when you sleep and being careful about it getting wet since you may be using chemicals to straighten it.

It's my understanding that through experience as well reading about hair, it will become brittle if it's constantly pulled to tight, as for helping it grow? I do not think that stress on the roots are going to help it grow more, it's a healthy scalp, and regular washing that is going to help, also scalp stimulation that will promote healthy growth

well braids are a good way to go but you must maintain it wash your hair and before you get your braids done get your ends clipped first and if you perm your hair do it every 2 months to keep it strong then every two months get your end clipped and watch it grow ok

On some girls it looks good but When do you ever wash it?

NO! Braids won't make your hair longer or stronger or healthier! Braids, most of the time are so time that it causes a lot of stress to your hair and your hair ends up falling out when you take the braids out! I hate braids! I just had some for 2 weeks, and when I took them down and shampooed my hair, clumps of my hair was going down the drain! It causes too much breakage, so don't do it!

It really depends on your hair type. If you have fine hair then it may break your hair especially if you leave them in for a long time. If your hair is thick and strong enough it may grow your hair. You should also make sure the person who braids your hair knows what they are doing. Some people braid too tight and it makes your edges fall out. Your hair will shed once you take them out so if your hair has a tendency to shed a lot now then I wouldn't get them. I've had micros once and I only left them in a month because I wanted to see what would happen. My hair shed a lot. I haven't put anymore in, I don't want to risk it.

Personally, No. I doesn't help. Yes it makes most of us lot cutier and more boys like us because we have long fake hair. But really, you can get bumps from them being to tight, and it breaks of your hair especailly with small braids (micros) and when you use rubber bands at the ends. Also, burning it is not the best thing to do because you may burn your real hair by mistake then lose all of your hair. It also my make you bald. That happend to a girl that I go to school with. My advice: Wrap you hair often. French braid it (one big braid not tight), Comb it (not to much), Brush it 100x a day, read Black Hair Magazines for more information.

Good Luck.

actually it could help if you have thick fuzzy hair if you don't have fuzzy hair and your hair is real fine that would not be a good idea,remember to keep it oiled.....but not to oily,your braids should only last for a maximum of three weeks any more than that your hair will try to lock and when you take it out then your hair will start shedding,but to keep your hair nice and fresh while your hair is braided go to the hair store and get dry shampoo,where you put the liquid on your scalp and wipe it off with a towel especially if you like to swim you will really need that because the chlorine will eat the hair away and break it off,also what would be a better idea,rather your hair is long or short to wear weave, weave will keep your real hair protected,and who ever is braiding your hair tell them not to braid to tight or to loose.

i get my hair braided all the time and my hair grow you just need to take care of it when it is braided like put hair food greese in between of the braids so your hair wont dry out then tie it down when you go to bed so it will look neat get your hair done every two weeks thats the only thing i can say because thats what i do

Your hair is not short i keep my hair in braids (croshades) (i think that's how you spell it) and that makes it grow a lot but I keep it in for 2-3 months. you should keep your hair in braids until you think it starts looking bad or until you think it's time to take it down.
