Very often our hair is a reflection on our eating habits. While glossy, lovely hair is a sign of a healthy well-nourished body, dry, dull, lifeless hair could be because of poor nutrition and poor overall health. Poor nutrition could lead to fading and drying of hair and even premature graying.

You diet should be wholesome and nutritious including good quality protein balanced with minerals, iron, calcium, selenium and vitamins. Dairy products, meat, fish, bone soups, nuts, pulses and cereals, green leafy vegetables, fresh fruits provide general nutrition to the hair. Iron is necessary for hair too, so eat peanuts, green leafy vegetables, dates etc.

Tea, coffee and alcohol can act as diuretics, hastening and increasing loss of water from the body, so limit your intake of these items. Unless a person is considered obese and/or has been diagnosed with a hormonal imbalance, food containing Linoleic acid such as fish, meat, milk and vegetable oils can be added to food. Also food such as carrot, beets, radish, curry leaves and leafy greens has been shown to prevent premature graying.

One of the reasons for unnecessary hair breakage is an incorrect washing technique. Shampoo commercials invariably show us ladies shampooing their hair with their tresses all glamorously piled up on their head. Actually that is not the way that hair should be washed, because when you pile it up like that on top, you are tangling up your hair in a manner that will lead to breakage when you are combing out your wet hair.

So follow these steps next time you shampoo:

1. Comb your hair well before you wet it make sure the snarls are out.

2. Then wet it well, saturate it.

3. Take the shampoo and massage it into your scalp. You don’t need to concentrate so much on the ends of the hair or you will dry them out.

4. Now rinse thoroughly, not being thorough enough leads to product build up.

5. When you apply conditioner, concentrate on the ends of the hair and keep the conditioner away from the scalp as far as possible. Now rinse it out or don’t as per the kind of conditioner you use.

6. Now don’t wring out your hair, instead wrap it in a towel to blot excess moisture and then comb it out.

Is your hair squeaky clean yet?

The sun can dry and fade your hair, and even cause split ends and you should take special care of your hair when you are about to expose it to extended periods of sunlight. This is true for your next beach holiday and also your next skiing holiday, because even when the sun does not feel that hot, the UV rays are still causing damage to your tresses.

So how do you protect your hair from sun damage? The best option is a hat that covers all of your hair. This is however not always possible the next best option is sunscreen for the hair. Many hair products such as gel, mousse, spray etc have UV protection built into them which are also a convenient option. So next time you want to enjoy the sun, be smart about your hair.

Don’t go by the color on the box : Remember you don’t know the original color of that model’s hair, her hair texture or how her color treatment was done.

Don’t make it too light : If the hair color is too close to the tone of your skin, it will make you look washed out.

Don’t make it too dark : Now this one presents an even bigger problem because while you can color your hair to make it a lighter color, the reverse is very difficult to do and you may then have to consult a professional.

It is therefore best to do a preview test before coloring and then make up your mind.

1. Always massage your hair with olive oil before washing them. This will help in keeping the dryness in control. If possible, keep the oil in your hair overnight to allow it to seep into and nourish the scalp.

2. After shampooing, use a dash of conditioner.

3. Never use a dryer; instead tie a loose ribbon to your hair and let it dry naturally. This will help in keeping the volume of your hair under control.

When you say itchy scalp, most people assume that this is caused by dandruff (white flaking and dryness), which is true in a lot of cases but this is only one of the reasons. It can also be caused by psoriasis (a chronic scaling and inflammation of the skin) or by seborrheic dermatitis (sensitivity to the presence of excessive skin yeasts), head lice or even sunburn.

Sometimes an itchy scalp may be caused by something as simple as poor hair hygiene or a reaction to a hair product such as a colorant or a procedure performed on the hair such as a perm etc.

So before buying an over the counter medication or hair product for dandruff, consider what exactly your symptoms are and seek a specific remedy for your condition.

While these products do what they claim to: reduce the frizziness of your hair and also add a lot of shine, but they also cause quite a bit of product build up in your hair, which can be quite difficult to get rid of. While smoothing the hair shaft, the product coats the hair with what is essentially a rubber based product. However, there is no serious or long lasting damage that can be caused to hair by using these products.

Some experts advice using a clarifying shampoo, or oiling the hair to get rid of silicon build up while some advice adding baking soda to shampoo while washing. However it is always best to take the advice of a trained professional who will recommend what is the best solution for your particular hair requirement, if you feel that there is excessive product build-up in your hair.

Eating foods rich in Vitamin A act as an antioxidant and will help the body produce the requisite sebum for the scalp.

Vitamin B5 or pantothenic acid is essential to prevent premature graying and hair loss so include whole grains and eggs in your diet.

Vitamin B3 (Niacin) as well as Vitamin E are essential for good circulation in the scalp which aids growth of hair so eat a lot of nuts and green leafy vegetables.

Vitamin B6, among other things aids production of melanin of the pigment that colors our skin and hair.

So if you take care to eat a balanced, healthy diet there is generally no need to take a vitamin supplement for your hair.
