Look at your nails. Are they hard? Good. Rub your arm. Is it smooth and soft? Good. This means you have enough protein and the hair growing out of your scalp is just as healthy. Of course nails can crack on things, just like your hair if not taken care of breaks off, but at least make sure the hair growing is in good condition.

Eat a lot of protein.

Yeah! My hair has good protein. Thanks for the tip. I've been natural for almost 9 years. Most those years I had locs. Loved them but needed a change so I did the BC of my locs June 2010 and for the past 8 months loving the natural styles I've been learning and experimenting with. Still new to finding the right products for my hair type of 4A, but all you natural divas have been giving me great advice. Thanks! cheers

Interesting. I have noticed that my nails are usually growing pretty and strong when my hair is doing the same but I never put two and two together.

That pic is from Aug 2010 - I can't remember. It maybe somewhere on my blog. I tend to stick to what works. Maybe conditioner and Organics Clove & Olive oil

I'm not so sure about that.
My nails have ALWAYS been strong, long and healthy, but not so much my hair.

Very Interesting....my nails are hard, and my skin is soft, but I never connected those things to hair. Thanks for sharing!

I have naturally very soft nails that split horribly. In fact, I can tear my nails like a piece of paper. So my nails are absolutely not a good indicator of my hair health. All the women in my family have very soft nails, yet everyone's hair grows fine and when it's well taken care of, retains length quite well.

Right now, my hair is BSL and doing just fine.
