Perfect Nutrition = Perfect Hair

There are a few key things that you need to make sure you get enough of that will help your hair look at its best.
The first is to drink plenty of water, this gives the hair its shine and without enough it can leave your hair lank and frizzy. The usual recommendation is eight glasses a day, but don’t stick rigidly to this, just drink as much as you can.

Secondly, protein is really important to your hair as this is what it’s made of, so be sure to eat enough dairy and meat products.Minerals like iron, zinc and copper are also really important.



The iron helps deliver oxygen to your hair to keep it alive and fresh looking, so eat plenty of red meat and dark green veggies.

Zinc is effective in keeping the hair strong, and prevents the hair falling out; it can be found in seafood and meat.

Copper is really important in maintaining the colour of your hair, and enough of this will really give your hair colour a boost, so make sure you eat enough shellfish, seeds and fresh vegetables.

Vitamins are also effective in maintaining a good scalp and a great overall condition of your hair, especially vitamins A, B and C. These can be found in fruits and vegetables.

A great celebrity secret is the sweet potato, which is full of vitamins A and B and other great nutrients which will give your hair great life and body.


To create the perfect look for your hair, choose to straighten your hair. The effect of ceramic straightening means that the follicles on your hair lie straighter and therefore reflects more light, making it look healthy and a beautiful colour.

1. Spray a heat-protective spray in your hair, this insures very little damage is done o your hair. Be sure to spray over the entire length of your hair.

2. Fully dry hair using a blow dryer. Make sure that you blow downwards, this is so the you can keep the cuticles lying flat, thus leaving your hair shinier, because more light can reflect from your hair.

3. Comb through your hair with a wide-toothed comb, so as not to create static in your hair. Keep this comb for the next part.

4. Separate your hair into sections. Depending on the thickness of your hair you may end up having created between 4 and 10 sections. Start with the hair closest to your neck. and work up to the top. You will find that the more sections you have the straighter your hair will be in the end.

5. Once you have your first section, turn on your hair straighteners. Starting at the top pull the straighteners down towards the floor. Do this fairly slowly. The slower you go the straighter it will be and the longer it will stay in. But also the slower you go the more damage you cause to you hair.

6. Once your first section is straight, continue until all the hair is completed.

7. If you are happy with your look, then spray some shine spray over all your hair. If not, continue straightening your locks until you achieve desired effect, please remember that straighteners can also create curls and waves, and so be
creative.

Hello,

The list is truly helpful. However, I would like to add a few of my own tips.

Although it is infinitely much better for you to dry your hair without the blast of a hot blow dryer, in reality, it can be a lot more challenging to get the style you want without resorting to your tried and true method. Try these tips for successful air drying.
