Who couldn't use a few hair tips to get healthy hair? We spend a lot of money on different shampoos, conditioners, and other hair care products in the hopes that they will restore the health and vitality of our hair.

Foods That Promote Healthy Hair Growth

Start by trimming damaged ends away every four to six weeks until you are left with the newer, healthier growth. In order to have healthier growth you should add these healthy hair foods into your diet each week:

• Salmon for the hair healthy omega fatty acids, protein, iron, and vitamin B-12.
• Poultry and eggs for protein.
• Nuts and beans for protein, iron, zinc, and biotin. Nuts also give hair with alpha-linolenic acid, which gives hair a natural shine.
• Dark green vegetables for vitamins A and C (help scalp produce oil to condition hair) as well as iron and calcium.
• Carrots and sweet potatoes for a vitamin A boost to give you a healthy scalp for healthy hair to grow from.

Give Hair TLC

To keep your new growth healthy, handle your hair with care. Use a low or sulfate-free shampoo once a week to remove styling product buildup. Let hair air-dry as often as you can. Limit heat-styling as much as possible. Refrain from chemically processing your hair with dyes, relaxers, thermal straightening systems, and permanent waves. Use a wide-tooth detangling comb to comb hair gently and a vented brush if needed. Wrap hair at night with a silk scarf to prevent friction while you sleep. Do not use any hair care products that contain alcohol.

These healthy hair tips will allow you to grow and keep up healthy hair. Remember to prevent damage as much as possible to support hair health. One last tip is to drink plenty of water to keep every part of your body, including hair and scalp, hydrated.

Eat Healthy and Think Positive

Hair growth will only take place once the rate hair fall decreases. Many people face stress in their day to day lives and face baldness at a very early stage. Eat  three meals a day and make sure that you have at least five different colours of fruits every day.

Oil your Hair

Varieties of oil brands available in the market might make your hair more dry after every wash. It is time you stop experimenting and opt for home made oil preparations. Take half a bowl of mustard oil and heat it. When it starts boiling, put a few pieces of chopped amla and methi seeds and keep stirring the potion. Wait for the concoction to cool down and apply it on the roots of your hair overnight. Wash it with a mild shampoo the next morning. This treatment, if followed diligently for two to three months can strengthen the roots of your hair and promote hair growth at a faster pace than usual. [Read" Faster Hair Growth Tips]

Trim your Hair

Go for that much-needed trim! Your hair stops growing permanently if you do not trim them. This is also the main reason why you get split ends. Get it trimmed real short or opt for some shorter hair style every two years to maintain a longer length in the long run.

Avoid using Hair Styling Products    

Avoid using colour and re-bonding products on your hair. You sure do not want to abuse your hair chemically and damage it for the rest of your life. And keep conditioning them in every wash. Dry hair gets brittle and stops hair from growing long. [Read: Secrets to Healthy Hair]
