petre, hair growing speed is genetic. It took me almost five years to get to where I am today, and trust me, there's nothing you can do to speed it up. Make sure you keep your scalp healthy, it's all you can do to make sure your hair grows to its maximum potential.

I dunno just imagine each fiber of your hair with its own water proof vasoline like coating and there ya go. I can wash 2 times a day and it still just feels like I stuck my hand in a 2 hour old cold pan of dried up hamburger grease.
I just save myself the guess work and keep the hair super short.

You need salicylic acid shampoo like Neutrogena T-Sal to dry up the oil glands. If that doesn't work, you can try T-Gel, but the coal tar extract has a fairly strong smell. If I don't wash my hair daily, it looks like I dipped it in a pot of grease and feels disgusting, so I know the feeling. Even if I didn't sweat, if I'm going out at night I take another shower in the evening so I look clean.
