Steph,
I don't know about using "Vicks" in the hair...

What's your hair type? Dry? Normal? Oily?
Have you colored your hair? Maybe chemically processed it?

For a professional assessment of your hair and what items would be good to enhance growth, you can go see a hair stylist.
They will tell you what works best for your hair.

Ive never heard of using vicks. I have heard and did this, i trim my hair like every 2 months or so. Seeing a hairdresser will be good too he/she can look at your hair and give you some advice on it. If you colour and highlight your hair often that can lead to damage and slow down the growing process. My hair use to reach down to my butt, i use to braid it every night before bed and i felt like that kept it growing too. A few months ago i went to get it cut in long layers and the hair dresser cut it shorter than i wanted, i cried..lol. Im looking to grow it back longer. With the help of prenatal vitamins its growing really well! There are vitamins out there of hair if you wanna try it too.

Default How to Maximize Your Hair Growth

Although your body systems are well equipped to initiate and sustain natural hair growth and maintain its beauty and luster, hair problems are very common these days. Most of it is due to nutritional and systemic deficiencies, illness, environmental pollution, lack of proper hair care, excessive use of artificial hair applicators and use of sub-standard cosmetics.

Iron, zinc, sulphur, magnesium, potassium, phosphorous and iodine are some of the important minerals required for optimum hair growth. Iron prevents dullness and brittleness of hair, whereas iodine and sulphur play a protective role by helping functioning and utilization of B vitamins. Iodine is necessary for proper functioning of the thyroid gland that also stimulates hair growth.

Your diet must also contain adequate quantities of vegetables and fresh fruits that provide the body with enormous supplies of minerals, vitamins, and enzymes to tone up your general state of health and optimize hair growth.
