Helping Your Child’s Hair Grow Faster: Simple Tips
As parents, we want the best for our children, including healthy, strong hair. If you’re looking to help your child’s hair grow faster, here are a few easy tips that can make a big difference.
- Healthy Diet for Healthy Hair
A balanced diet rich in vitamins and proteins is key for hair growth. Include:
- Protein: Eggs, fish, lean meat
- Iron and Zinc: Leafy greens, beans, nuts
- Vitamins A & C: Carrots, oranges, sweet potatoes
- Biotin & Omega-3: Avocados, seeds, salmon
Good nutrition supports strong hair from the inside out.
- Gentle Hair Care
- Mild Shampoo: Wash hair 2-3 times a week with gentle, sulfate-free shampoo.
- Condition Regularly: Keep hair soft by conditioning, focusing on the ends.
- Detangle Gently: Use a wide-tooth comb or detangling brush, starting at the ends.
- Regular Trims: Trim every 8-12 weeks to remove split ends and keep hair healthy.
- Scalp Care
- Massage the Scalp: Gentle scalp massages increase blood flow, promoting growth.
- Keep It Clean: Ensure the scalp stays clean and moisturized to prevent issues like dryness.
- Bedtime Routine
- Silk Pillowcase: Reduce friction and tangles by using silk or satin pillowcases.
- Loose Hairstyles: Keep hair tied loosely or leave it down to avoid breakage.
- Moisturize: Apply a little leave-in conditioner or oil before bed to keep hair hydrated.
- Make It Fun
Turn hair care into a positive experience. Use fun accessories or let them play while you brush their hair to make it enjoyable.
With these simple habits, you’ll encourage healthy hair growth and create a routine that your child can enjoy too!

PETER SIDWELL’S HOMEMADE WAGONWHEELS & HOB-NOB STYLE BISCUITS
This month, I’m thrilled to share two of our all-time favourite bakes: our homemade Hob Nobs and nostalgic Wagon Wheels. These recipes are more than just sweet treats—they’re time capsules. The Hob Nobs came from a rainy weekend when we had oats, butter, and not much else in the cupboards. The kids loved rolling the dough into little biscuit balls and watching them flatten in the oven. Dipping them in chocolate was the final touch—well, that and licking the spoon clean!
