What Type of Foods to Eat for Healthy Hair

So awhile ago I posted a tip on eating healthy to help maintain healthy hair but there are specific foods that can help with your hair in different ways, so here's some ideas!

The following foods have a lot of Omega-3 in them so they help keep hair, nails and skin healthier. You should try and have some of these food everyday.
-Salmon, tuna, mackeral and other fatty fish
-Flax seed oil
-Walnuts, almonds, milk

Vitamins B-6, B-12 and folic acids are important for your hair. Taking multivitamins helps get more of these nutrients but the following foods have lots of these vitamins and are good to add to your diet
-Vitamin B-6: bananas, potatoes and spinach
-Vitamin B-12: meat, poultry, fish and dairy products
-Folic acid: citrus fruits, tomatoes, whole grain, fortified grain products, beans and lentils

So those are the main ones. I hope this gave you some ideas or helped inform you a bit more on foods for healthy hair!

Tip 12: Drink Water and Eat Healthy

So this tip is rather straight forward. Like the title says, drink water and eat healthy, drinking water helps moisturize hair and skin. Eating healthy will also help your hair and skin. Your body is all connected somehow, if you are eating healthy, drinking healthy and getting enough exercise you should have a healthy weight, a clear face, healthy hair etc. I mean there are some exceptions and conditions but learning to eat and drink healthy is a great start to strengthening your hair. If you're noticing really dry hair then drinking 8 cups of water a day can help you get a bit more moisture in your hair. Also homemade hair masks are kind of linked to that because they're putting the nutrients in the foods directly on your hair instead of inside your body, then used by your body and then a bit is used towards your hair. I'll post a direct link to my hair mask blog post, so feel free to check that out.
