No, Cutting Your Hair Does Not Make It Grow Faster
One of the most popular beauty myths states that cutting your hair helps it grow faster. Whoever invented this myth probably needed people to pay for more haircuts.

Hair grows from follicles in the scalp, so cutting the tips will not speed up growth. On average, hair grows a quarter of an inch each month, whether or not you cut it. If you want longer hair, let it grow out!
