color: #330913; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;">As soon as someone invents something that actually makes your hair grow at lightning speeds, the world will be a better place.  And that person will be a billionaire.  Until then, here are all of the tips I give my clients who are trying to grow their hair out:</span><br /><br /><div style="color: #330913; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white;">1.  </span><b style="background-color: #f4cccc;">Avoid going lighter</b><span style="background-color: white;"> - Not all hair color is damaging for your hair.  Depositing color, or going darker, is very conditioning.  Going lighter, however, strips the hair and can be very damaging.  If you absolutely have to go lighter, be patient and do it slowly over several months to avoid breakage.  </span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #330913; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="color: #330913; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><b><span style="background-color: white;">2.  </span><span style="background-color: #f4cccc;">Ease up on the heat</span><span style="background-color: white;"> - </span></b><span style="background-color: white;">Cheap blow dryers and flat irons tend to get way too hot, making them really damaging to your hair.  If you want your hair to grow, be willing to spend a little extra money on nice hair tools, they won't be nearly as damaging to your hair.  If you aren't ready to upgrade your hair tools, at least try using your flat iron/blow dryer less often.  Summer is the perfect time to wear your natural texture.  </span></div><div style="background-color: white;
