DOES THE GREENHOUSE METHOD WORK FOR HAIR GROWTH?

The jury is still out on whether the Greenhouse Method stimulates hair growth, but many naturals swear that their hair has grown as much as 1-1.5 inches within a single month.

The Greenhouse Method is also known as the Greenhouse Effect (GHE), and it is a way to infuse moisture into hair. Doing this treatment on your hair and scalp once per week will help you to retain length.

Hair growth is one of the primary reasons for wanting to do the Greenhouse Method, and you’ll have to experiment with the method to see if it will work for your hair.

The technique may speed growth by increasing cellular activity of the scalp and follicles. Placing the shower cap on your head overnight will allow you to draw in body heat during the night.

The heat will cause your scalp to sweat, and the increased activity may stimulate hair follicle cells. Sweating will also help to detoxify and unclog the follicles

USING THE GREENHOUSE METHOD FOR RETAINING MOISTURE

Even if you don’t want to use the Greenhouse Method for growth, you can at least use it to keep your hair soft and moisturized.

You’ll have a much easier time retaining the length you grow if you keep your hair moisturized between washes. Hair needs hydration, and it also requires a way to keep the water locked inside the cortex.

Doing the Greenhouse Method 1-2 times per week will give your hair an extra hydration session without taking a shower.
