Posted by Manny Y on 8th Apr 2015
Are you having troubles with hair growth? Is your hair weak and easily breaks? Is it dry and has no shine or luster? We all have hair troubles, sometimes these conditions can be fixed by deep conditioning or probably a hot oil treatment, but if the your hair troubles come back after a few days, then maybe you’re doing something wrong without you knowing it.
Good Nutrition
First of all, to get healthy hair growth, you should eat healthy too. Eating a lot of fatty foods can make your hair oily and greasy, making it prone to fungal or microbial infections. Also, if you’re one of those who take dieting to the extreme, you will definitely experience poor hair growth because if you don’t eat or eat enough, hair won’t grow well too.
For healthy hair growth, one should have a healthy diet, among the nutrients needed protein is most important because hair is literally made of protein. Good sources of protein are lean meat and soy.
Taking vitamins and minerals is also good for hair growth. Vitamins act as co-enzymes that help metabolize food more efficiently. Minerals like iron help the red blood cells carry oxygen all over the body. hair producing cells found underneath the hair follicles are considered one of the fastest growing cells in the body therefore these cells need a constant supply of oxygen for cellular division and growth.
Good Hygiene
Believe it or not hygiene play a very important role in hair growth. Keeping your hair and scalp clean prevents any fungal or microbial growth. Also daily washing helps control oil or sebum production. Sebum is a natural oil produced by the sebaceous glands and it functions as a natural skin and hair conditioner. We constantly produce this oil so it is important to regularly wash our hair.
Also, to get a jump start on hair growth, you can use a shampoo based hair growth stimulant like FAST. FAST or Fortified Amino Scalp Therapy is a deep cleansing nutrient rich shampoo that stimulate or increase hair growth by providing the hair with all the nutrients it needs.
