Did you know minerals play an important role in the way your hair looks? They determine the shine and the bounce. The main players are copper, zinc and silica. Get your copper through nuts, seafood, vegetables, fruits, cereals and yes, even chocolate! They help in building up the collagen for your hair. Collagen is what gives hair the body and elasticity. Soak in the silica from capsicum, potato skins, sprouts and cucumber. If you think you don’t get enough of these minerals through your diet, you can even consider taking supplements. Not getting enough of zinc can lead to hair loss and thinning. So fill up on eggs, chicken, fish and oysters. For the vegetarians, pumpkin and wheat germ are a good source of zinc.
