How to make hair grow faster

As a child I was always known as the 'girl with long hair' my friends even nicknamed me Rapunzul. I used to have waist length hair in my secondary school days and then when I left it was already nearing to my knees! As my mother always had lovely long hair, it never bothered me that I always stood out from my friends because of my hair. I never had a problem caring for it and was never forced to have long hair, I enjoyed getting ready in the morning as my hair was just poker straight whereas my friends spent ages blow drying and straightening their hair everyday.
