If you want to have long and healthy hair, review your diet.

All these foods contain Vitamins A and C that stimulate the scalp and hair growth. Equally food in high dose of protein protect your hair from breakage and split ends so are also important additions.

Tip 2: Avoid Heated Styling Tools:

You’ve heard it a million times before, but its so true…avoid those curling tongs/hair straighteners when trying to grow your hair! Their temperature can reach over 400 degrees and harms your hair like nothing else. Still want to tame those locks while growing out your hair? Use nourishing mousses, balms and gels in order to make your hair shine. There are such an array of products out there, each meant for a specific hair type and need so choose the one right for your particular hair query, whilst focusing on growth.

If you really cannot live without those straighteners, ensure you minimise the damage with heat-protectant. Although not a miracle worker these sprays can reduce the damage the high temperatures work on your hair.

Tip 3: Help Your Hair:

Regularly apply special masks to your hair in order to moisturize, nourish and hydrate it. You can even create a nourishing, natural hair mask from the things in your fridge! Choose avocado, coconut oil or cucumber to stimulate your scalp and hair follicles. These products will strengthen your roots and ends and can be left for as little as five to ten minutes to have an effect.

It’s official! Long, beautiful hair can be achieved…even in the cold winter months!

SCIENTISTS REVEAL WHY HAIR TURNS GREY and why it stops growing.

Some celebrities like George Clooney can pull off salt and pepper hair otherwise known as grey hair. But to some people grey hair is an unwelcome sign of ageing. Now a  new study has shed light and why hair turns grey, paving the way for potential treatments which can help retain hairs natural colour.

Researchers at New York University Langone medical center think that a breakdown in communication between the stem cells in hair follicles and melanocyte stem  cells may be the cause of hair turning grey.

Melanocytes are pigment producing cells which give hair its colour while follicle cells are responsible for new hair growth. Hair follicle stem cells and pigment producing melanocyte collaborate to produce coloured hair but the underlying reason why hair turns grey has been unknown.

The Scientists used a mouse model to examine  how the follicle cells and melanocytes work together to generate hair growth and give hair its colour.

They identified a signalling pathway known as Wnt-which follicle cells use to send instruction to,  and activate stem cell melanocytes. Once they receive they Wnt signal, the melanocytes starts producing pigment which gives hair its colour.
Inhibiting Wnt signalling in hair follicle stem cells inhibited both hair re-growth and prevented the melanocyte stem cell activation leading to dipigmented or grey hair in mice.

The study findings suggest manipulating the Wnt signal pathway may prevent hair turning grey and even prevent hair thinning out.
If scientists achieve this in humans [which there is a huge chance they can], Men and Women of a certain age who spend a fortune on hair dyes and hair growth creams will welcome the news happily.
