Before we get recipes and methods, it is worth understanding why chia seeds deserve all this hype. They are not just trendy; They are really nutrients. Here is what makes them so good for your hair:
Rich in omega-3 fatty acids: These healthy fats are like food for your scalp. They reduce inflammation, improve blood circulation and help nourish the hair follicles so that your threads become stronger and shiny.
Packed with protein: The hair is mainly made of protein (keratin), and chia seeds provide a good herbal dose to support it.
Charged with antioxidants: Antioxidants in chia seeds fight free radicals that damage the scalp and hair, which helps prevent thinning and gray.
High in iron and zinc: Both of these minerals are important for hair growth, as they improve the oxygen supply to roots and reduce hair emissions.
So instead of spraying another nice hair serum, why not start the day by feeding your body with these power seeds?
