does this damage your hair?
I'm trying to grow out my hair, so I've tried to reduce the amount of heat I use on my hair. Some nights before bed, I braid my hair (while it's still wet so it will be wavy the next morning). In the mornings, I used my wet to dry hair straightener to dry the braids before I take them out. Could this be damaging my hair? Thanks in advance for all answers! :)

my boyfriend has rather long hair too and hes more careful about it then i am! haha
anyway, i have curly hair so my hair is rather delicate i know a rather large amount of info on hair care
now, doing what you are is actually doubling the damage. Just dont straighten it. Dont do it.
braiding your hair does lengthen it since it tugging on the roots, but on a daily basis (or constantly) WILL damamge your hair, split ends and dry ends. Heat is so bad too, a keratin treatment is just as bad.
Trim the ends of your hair the one day in the first week of every month, the moon is in its growing phase.
Keep your hair picked up in a ponytail. the tighter the better.

Too much as well as prolonged moisture does damage your hair, as well as heat. Not getting your hair trimmed at least once every 3 months is also damaging. Growing your hair is a very long and difficult process. (Trust me, I know) The best thing to do is try to reduce how much heating you do to it, such as hair straighteners, hair dryers, hair curlers, etc. Also braiding your hair while it is still wet, and not fully dried can damage your hair as well. It is safest to wait until your hair is dry before braiding or any other hair styles that require it to not fully dry. Also, be sure to get it regularly trimmed to ensure any damaged ends are removed to ensure healthy hair growth. As these can easily worsen as time goes on if left unmanaged.
