Yeah! I had hair 3/4 of the way down my butt. I got it trimmed and now its a little above my tail bone. If you want to grow your hair, you need to make sure that you don't live in a lifestyle where you would not have enough time to take care of it properly. To me, shampoos and conditioners don't really matter, though I am very fond of Garnier. Split ends can be caused by not conditioning hair well enough. I only wash my hair twice a week or so and I use lots of conditioners. If you want to, just let it sit for a while and then wash it out. You should get your hair trimmed every 6 months or so--depending on the health of your hair. If your hair looks fine, then you can wait until you think you need one. There are no specific vitamins I know, but I do have some tips:

~Break a few eggs and mix ONLY THE WHITES in a bowl. (If you mix in the yolks as well, your hair will stink.) Put the egg whites all around your hair: at the roots, scalp, everywhere. Let it sit for a while (you can tie it into a bun) and wait until the egg white has hardened to the touch. Then wash it out. It makes your hair shine and brightens your color!

~You can also rinse your hair with nonalcoholic beer. It is said to help make your hair shine.

~Don't use a brush on wet hair--it causes breakage and split ends. Always use a wide-toothed comb.

Remember, this is YOUR HAIR. Don't do anything with it that you don't want to do. Treat it carefully, and stay away from maniacs with scissors! :-)

Shampoo and condition it only when needed, every 2-3 days. Deep condition once and month and try not to dye it. Also when getting a cut, do NOT use a razor on it instead have your stylist use very sharp scissors.

Garnier Fructis. Long and Strong shampoo with the Sleek n Shine conditioner. Then use their shine serum on the ends. Take B vitamins and eat lots of spinach and broccoli. I get my hair trimmed twice a year but I seem to have unusually tolerant hair so I don't recommend that. (I've lightened and darkened my hair to the point of making it stretchy and somehow it still shines with no splits or breakage.)
