I grew my hair down to my WAIST using a £1.10 Morrisons product
ONE woman showed off her impressive transformation after simply changing her shampoo.
She was able to grow her hair from her shoulders to her waist without having to follow an elaborate beauty routine.
In her Reddit afterUser Random_throwaway08 revealed her last haircut was in June 2022.
In the previous photo, her black locks were visible just below her collarbone.
She then grew her hair long for two years, although she explained that she didn’t do it on purpose.
“The funny thing is, I didn’t want to grow my hair out at all, I just wanted to save money on haircuts,” she explains.
Photos of her progress showed that the poster’s long, black hair now reached her waist.
“I could definitely use it when my hair gets shorter, but I wanted to share some pictures before I go short again,” she said.
According to the Reddit user, she didn’t have an extensive hair care routine.
“My hair is low maintenance, I only use Paul Mitchell’s tea tree shampoo,” she said.
“I think tea tree oil helps with hair growth, or at least keeping your scalp healthy.”

The social media user added that she also lets her hair air dry after every wash.
“I rarely use heat and have never dyed my hair,” she explains.
“I think [these facts] contribute most to healthy hair.”
She explained that anyone with a similar hair type to hers could expect to see results within two years.
“I think my hair has been about this long for the past two months,” she wrote in the comments section.
Why does tea tree oil help with hair growth?
The National Library of Medicine published a study on the effectiveness of various ingredients on hair growth.
When studying the use of the substances in subjects with alopecia, the experts found that the solution containing “minoxidil, diclofenac and tea tree oil was significantly better than minoxidil alone.”
Minoxidil is often seen as the main stimulant for hair growth, but research shows it is most effective when combined with tea tree oil.

“My hair generally grows very slowly after a certain length.”
Reddit users shared their thoughts on the simple hair care advice in the comments.
“This is really amazing growth, your hair is so healthy and beautiful,” someone wrote.
“Your hair looks amazing. Honestly, your hair grows a lot faster than mine and I wish mine could grow that fast,” said another reader.
“I’m sure a big part of your success is due to the fact that you haven’t overtreated your hair.”
