Olive oil for hair growth?

Hi so the other day I had my hair cut a few inches and even though it is in much better condition I can't help but miss my longer hair. The hairdresser cut my hair about an inch shorter than I wanted and I really want to grow it to how I wanted it as quick as possible. I've heard so much online about using olive oil but my mom has suggested that I avoid using it and to just let it grow naturally. I know you're supposed to apply olive oil everyday but if I did it then could I just use olive oil on the days I wash it? That would be about 3 times a week. I have heard that it can grow your hair an inch in a week which I don't whether or not is true, but to grow this much hair in two or three weeks is good enough. What do you guys suggest? I do use heat on my hair like straighteners but not everyday and I always use a heat defence spray before hand. Also I never blow dry my hair. Is there any harm in trying olive oil? Please give me some advice, thank you so much!!

Use coconut oil! I put it on my tips after every hair wash and occasionally do an overnight mask with it. It has improved the condition of my hair so much in 6 months!

Don't even bother with oils! Unless your hair is very dry.
Try massaging your scalp, this encouraging cell repair and blood flow
Which will encourage stimulation of hair growth.
Wash your hair less, or try to not use sulphate products.
And invest in a natural haired brush.

As well as a good diet.
You can't encourage external health without taking healthy items internally.

coconut oil - hair will grow but it does take like 3 months for a inch to grow - depends...good diet...use oil once a week...long, thick, healthy straight hair in around 4-6 months or a bit longer if u carry on using it at least once a week without a miss

Defo this, worked with castor oil as well but took out loads of weaker hair so I stopped haha, but new ones did grow in it's place! Coconut oil is the one! How long did you massage it for?

don't worry about the weaker hair falling out - like u mentioned new hair will grow but does take time... I was like that too and stopped but started- I noticed new hair grew months later...I massage the oil on my scalp for 5 mins every once a week...another tip is too put ur head down n massage ur scalp for 5 mins every night this way ur hair will get oxygen too

let me know how ur hair is like in a few months time...my hair has grown but thinly...using this oil i'll grow 4-6 months time

My hair is fine, I was quoting op about how good this treatment works haha
