So the buzz around the salon lately has been about healthy hair. It's that time of year...damage from the sun, color, swimming, or just being lax about hair care. A lot of people want products for the instant fix...which is wonderful...but you should also be aware that eating properly is a huge part of your hair's health. In the next several days I will share with you six tips for eating your way into healthy hair!
Tip #1
The first step to ensuring healthy hair is to make sure that you are getting enough protein in your diet.
Hair is composed largely of keratin, which is a protein made up of amino acids. In order to grow new hair you must produce more amino acids which can only come from consuming more proteins.
Protein sources include: lean meat, fish, eggs, nuts, beans and soy products.
