Tips for Shiny, Strong Hair

*Eat Omega-3 Rich Foods

Omega-3 fatty acids make up a small percentage of hair follicles and the body needs omega-3 fatty acids to support optimal hair growth. Sadly, our bodies cannot produce these fatty acids on their own, so it's up to you to get them on your own via a healthy diet.
Examples of foods that contain and are rich with Omega-3 are:

  • Salmon
  • Sardines
  • Avocado
  • Pumpkin
  • Walnuts

*Get Plenty of B Vitamins

B vitamins are extremely important in regard to your hair's health, along with vitamin D, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids. B vitamins boost the immune system and help the body produce red blood cells and have been linked to hair growth. Vitamin B6 is especially important for healthy hair, however taking a B complex vitamin is best for most people.
Examples of foods that contain B vitamins:

  • Beans
  • Nuts
  • Whole grains


*Shampoos and Other Products

You need to use a gentle, mild and natural shampoo and conditioner to help add shine to hair. Also, adding a hot oil treatment periodically will add glossiness to over processed tresses.
