Do you want your hair to be shinier, fuller and healthier? Then I’m going to give you a list of 12 best foods for beautiful hair that’ll certainly revive in your traces. The best part is that these are some really yummy foods that many of us already love, so what could be better – eating great food, and getting your hair looking beatifull all in one?
12. Salmon.
For those of you that like to consume beauty foods, you cannot avoid eating salmon. It is loaded with omega-3 fatty acids and is a high quality protein source. It is filled with vitamin B-12 as well as iron.
11. Dark Green Vegetables.
How could you avoid those dark green vegetables? This includes spinach, broccoli and Swiss chard. They are a great source of Vitamins A and C and will do wonders for your hair. Your body needs Vitamins A and C in order to produce sebum.
10. Beans.
There are many sayings that are behind beans, but did you know that beans actually do good for your hair? Legumes such as lentils and kidney beans are something you should consume as they are an important part of your hair care diet. They provide you with a good amount of protein in order to promote hair growth, but they also have zinc, biotin and iron in them.
Well I’m considering myself lucky to have a beautiful hair even without eating many of these products listed here. I eat very much pork meat and milk :). The only problem that I always had, but finally I got it solved is the hair loss problem :)

Hey SG,
Same here. I could do most of these with little complaints. But the problem iwth me is I only usually eat them when I have an issue. Otherwise I ignore veggies and other goodness filled foods. I know…Bad!

I’ve discovered this hair treatment about 2 years ago and I’ve tried to using it once a year( I would love to do it more often, but I’m buying it from a special hair products exposition that is held only once a year). I’m now finishing the second treatment (it’s only for maintenance) and it’s the only thing that stopped my hair loss problem. It’s a treatment formed from 42 vials called Intragen and I use one vial after I wash my hair. If you really want to know more details you can visit my blog. I’ve made a full review there a few months ago, and you can find detailed photos, price and how it should be used.

Yeah I also came to conclusion that conditioner makes hair oily….also don’t use agressive shampooes, they dry your scalp too much, and them skin makes more oil to protect itself….I used Head and Shoulders, L’oreal and similar, and they all make hair oily, so I tried with baby shampooes, and it work great…my hair isn’t oily…..also don’t wash your hair too often, that also will dry out your scalp, and it will produce oil….

To be honest I never was prone to eat a lot of these foods but I began growing my hair out two years ago to donate and realized how great it made my hair look. And if you’re going to donate hair make sure it’s great hair that someone else will love to show off as well!
So funny you mention salmon. I used to HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT and then…I gave it a sincere try and it’s quite delicious! I’m growing up! :)

Hey Theo,
you can DONATE hair???? WOW! I had no idea you could do that! That’s some crazy stuff! and though i’m not a big fish fan, salmon really isnt too bad!

Hi Sheila!
Lol yea! There are two big programs — The Pantene one and Locks of Love. I want to donate to Locks of Love. It does sound strange now that I think about it and I’m sure chopping off long hair is going to be a bit emotional but it’s exciting too. Nice post about food & hair relationship!

Hey theo,

I’m vegetarian, so a few of these suggestions just aren’t gonna happen, but the others (especially dark green veggies) I didn’t even know affected your hair! Thanks for the tips :)

hehe Lydia,
I bet even the oldies when they told us to eat up our green veggies knew about how beneficial they really can be!

Hey Amy,
Oo I have that oily bangs issue too. My hair secretes oil like an oil factory. So sometimes I’ll just bend over the sink and wash just my bangs. Lol.

Hey Fatima,
I used to rub conditioner in my scalp until a few years ago and my hair would always end up being oily. Once my stylist pointed out that conditioner should not be applied to the roots, it got better. Also, too much conditioner also makes your hair oily…
