Hair needs protein to grow and to become strong and healthy. 80-85% of your hair is made up of a protein called Keratin. Without sufficient protein in our diet, our hair can become dry and brittle and can start to break at the ends. In order to maintain a rich blood supply of hair, we require sufficient levels of iron in our body. At the last, Zinc is an essential nutrient for your scalp and has also been proven to prevent or slow down hair loss.

Garlic
Like onion, garlic too has high sulphur content. This is the reason why it is used in traditional hair regrowth medicines. You’d be surprised to know these beauty benefits of garlic.
Steps:
Crush a few cloves of garlic.
Add coconut oil to it and boil the mixture for a few minutes.
Let it cool down a bit and then massage it on your scalp.
You can leave it on for 30 minutes and then wash your hair.
Do this two times in a week.
