Why Your Hair Isn’t Growing (Even If You Think You’re Doing Everything Right)

6 comments by sofia montella

You get trims.
You take vitamins.
You avoid bleach, heat, and harsh products.
So why... is your hair still stuck at the same length?

It’s one of the most common questions we hear at The Warehouse Salon in Fairfield, NJ—and one of the most misunderstood.

Because when hair won’t grow, the issue usually isn’t growth at all—it’s retention.

Let’s break down why your hair might be plateauing, what’s really going on beneath the surface, and how to finally get results that actually show.


First: Your Hair Is Growing — You’re Just Not Keeping It

Here’s a little truth bomb: the average person’s hair grows about half an inch per month. So unless you have a medical condition, chances are your hair is growing... you're just not seeing the length.

Why?

Because breakage, weak ends, and damaged strands are canceling out your growth.

Imagine pouring water into a cup with a crack in the bottom. It’s not about how much you pour—it’s about what’s leaking out.


The Top 3 Reasons You’re Not Retaining Length

1. Breakage at the Ends

You’re caring for your roots... but your ends? They’re the oldest, most fragile part of your hair—and often the first to go.

Signs of breakage:

  • Frayed or see-through ends

  • Hair that “snaps” during brushing

  • Lots of short, uneven pieces around your shoulders

What to do:
Get regular trims (yes, even when growing your hair), invest in bond-repair treatments, and use silk or satin when sleeping to reduce friction.


2. Scalp Health Issues

You can’t grow strong hair from a weak foundation. If your scalp is dry, inflamed, clogged, or flaky, your follicles can’t produce strong strands.

What to do:
Start exfoliating your scalp monthly, reduce buildup with a detoxifying treatment, and keep it balanced with nourishing products—ask us for recommendations tailored to your scalp type.


3. Heat and Chemical Damage

Even occasional flat ironing, lightening, or over-styling can break down the hair’s internal bonds and leave your strands weak. You may not see the damage right away—but your hair will quietly snap before it reaches the length you want.

What to do:
Use heat tools less often (and always with protectant), keep chemical services spaced out and professionally managed, and consider strength-focused in-salon treatments like K18 or Olaplex.


Bonus Reason: You’re Not Moisturizing Enough

Even if your hair doesn’t “feel dry,” it might be dehydrated on a structural level—especially if it’s color-treated or curly.

Dry hair = brittle hair.
Brittle hair = breakage.

A regular deep conditioning routine, leave-in hydration, and product layering can make the difference between strong ends... and constant snapping.
