How to Prevent Hair Loss

Take care of your diet

Why does what we eat matter for our hair? It matters a lot! To have strong and healthy hair, we need to eat foods with lots of vitamins and protein. Things like kiwis, oranges, spinach, peas, fish (for magnesium), and eggs (for vitamin B12) are especially good for keeping our hair in great shape.
