    FRESH FRUITS FOR A FRESHER SCALP

    1

    Ladies, we get that you're busy. It's easy to miss on chopping up some fruits between meals through your day - but this means you're losing out on vitamins essential to not just your body, but also your hair and scalp. Find some time to have a few quick bites of fruit at your desk or as a sweet, post-workout treat. Citrus fruits like orange are an especially great source of vitamin C, which helps keep your scalp and hair nourished from boardroom to dancefloor.

    When you need an extra mid-day boost, it's hard not to reach for your fifth cuppa joe. Too much caffeine can dry out your scalp, and leave those tresses looking limp. Instead, try having some fruit juice for a refreshing perk-me-up that will leave you feeling fresh and your hair and scalp feeling energised as well. Say bye to that 3pm slump, and hello to full-day freshness!

    Avocado has been a mainstay on the superfood list, and we know you love adding it into your milkshakes and salads for a quick, guilt-free hunger fix.

    THE VEGGIE STRATEGY

    Nothing spells health like green vegetables. Spinach and broccoli are an awesome source of vitamins and anti-oxidants that supply your scalp with loads of essential nutrients. Eating them raw gives you the best effect, but we know - some of you find them less than appetising, so drizzle on some light dressing and get a regular dose in your diet to keep it well-balanced. Trust us, you won't regret it when your locks become the best accessory to all your outfits.
