There are several aspects to hair care and hair nutrition. Healthy hair is easy to achieve with vitamins. The B vitamins, especially B5 (pantothenic acid and B3 (niacin), are especially important for hair growth. Grow your hair out for a wedding or use it to prevent breaking or thinning. It works for all of the above. Taking large doses of vitamin A for a long period of time, on the other hand, can trigger hair loss, but stopping the vitamin A will reverse the problem. As in case of deficiencies, often the hair grows back when the cause is corrected. Hair loss occurs when the diet is inadequate in the B vitamins – especially B6, biotin, inositol and folic acid; and the minerals magnesium, sulfur and zinc. Use conditioner on you hair after each shampoo. This makes for a much easier combing, causing less tangles and breakage of hair strands.

Lovely, shining hair is one of a woman’s greatest beauty assets. Hair tends to be the body’s barometer indicating good health or the lack of it. The life-span of a hair can be anything from several months to several years, depending on how it is treated and how healthy the scalp and hair conditions are. It is seen that the average life of a hair is about five years. After that, the follicle the hair is growing from begins to shrink and the. hair remains static until it drops out or is brushed out to be replaced a few months later by a new hair. The average adult head has around 1, 20,000 to 1,50,000 hairs. Although a hundred of hairs may come out in a single day, your hair won’t become thinner. The trouble starts when the new hair does not form in the follicle, perhaps because there is inadequate blood supply, or because glandular or hormonal activity in the body is preventing healthy growth. Hair is a precious beauty asset, so it deserves good care. There are four types of hair-normal, greasy, dry and greasy dry. Normal hair is shiny yet not greasy, and fairly easy to manage. Greasy hair looks good for a day or two after shampooing, but then quickly becomes lank. Dry hair is difficult to control after shampooing, looks dull and has ends that are dry and split. Greasy dry hair is usually fairly long and the hair nearest the scalp is greasy while the ends are dry.
