Q:How do I make my hair grow faster? I tried using a horse shampoo (Mane and Tail) but it just dried my hair. What's the trick?

A: Hair just stops growing at a certain length, and that length varies from person to person. There is nothing you can do to make it grow faster. Even if you trim your hair regularly to control ends breaking, it still won't speed up hair growth, which typically is about a half-inch per month. As far as a topical solution like horse shampoo, I'm sorry to say that doesn't really work.
