Tomatoes

Tomatoes not only make your favorites dishes taste better but they are also good for your skin and hair if applied topically. They are rich in vitamins and minerals such as A, B, C, and E that are essential for your hair growth. Tomatoes reduce your hair fall, add shine to the strands and help fight dandruff.

Avocado

Avocado is a great source of biotin, and adding this B-complex vitamin back into the diet may help hair to grow more healthily. A study found that minerals in avocado oil, including potassium and magnesium, may seal cuticle cells, which can help hair look smooth and shiny and prevent it from breaking.

 Berries

Berries are loaded with beneficial compounds and vitamins that may promote hair growth. This includes vitamin C, which has strong antioxidant properties. Also, the body uses vitamin C to produce collagen, a protein that helps strengthen hair to prevent it from becoming brittle and breaking.

 Spinach

Spinach is a healthy green vegetable that's loaded with beneficial nutrients like folate, iron, and vitamins A and C, all of which may promote hair growth. Vitamin A helps the skin glands produce sebum. This oily substance helps moisturize the scalp to keep hair healthy.

 Sweet potatoes

Did you know that sweet potatoes are a rich source or iron, copper, potassium, magnesium and beta-carotene. Beta-carotene aids cell growth, prevent hair thinning and can even reduce dullness in hair.
