How to Track Your Hair Growth (Step-by-Step Guide)
✨ Why Tracking Your Hair Growth Works
Tracking your hair helps you understand EXACTLY what your hair loves, how often it needs moisture, and what habits support or slow your growth.
When you track your journey, you move from guessing → to clarity → to results.
🌿 Step 1: Start With a Baseline
Before tracking, document:
- Starting length (front, sides, crown, back)
- Scalp health
- Hair condition (dryness, breakage, shedding)
- A starting photo in good lighting
This gives you a clear “before.”
🌸 Step 2: Use a Daily Hair Tracker
Daily entries should include:
- Hairstyle
- Products used
- Moisture level
- Scalp massage: yes/no
- Water intake
- Protective style: yes/no
- Notes (shedding, dryness, softness, etc.)
Small habits = big results.
✨ Step 3: Track Your Wash Days
Write down:
- Shampoo + conditioner
- Treatments + masks
- Oils used
- How your hair felt after
- What improved your softness & definition
This helps you build the perfect routine.
🌿 Step 4: Monthly Check-Ins
Every 30 days:
- Measure your hair
- Take updated photos
- Compare last month
- Write what worked and what didn’t
This keeps you consistent and motivated.
