A member asked:
Does your hair grow more quickly in the summer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doubtful.: This is a very old myth that's been around for a long time. Warm weather may theoretically increase cutaneous blood circulation a bit, and thus increase the rate of hair growth a bit; but even if that happens (and there are no valid studies showing that it does), the difference would be so small as to be virtually undetectable.
