Hair is ‘fed’ by blood vessels at the base of the hair follicle to provide the support needed for growth. Between starting to grow and falling out year later, each hair passes through four distinct stages: Anagen, Catagen, Telogen and Exogen
At any given time, every hair is at a different growth stage of the cycle. Over time, the length of the Anagen (or growing stage) decreases, therefore the hair may become weaker and thinner after each cycle. That’s why it’s so important to ensure your diet is rich in nutrients to maintain normal healthy hair growth.

There are a wide range of factors that can impact on the health of the hair and hair growth
Any of these or in any combination can cause hair to leave the Anagen (growing phase) of the Hair Growth Cycle prematurely. Hair thrives on a plentiful supply of specific proteins, vitamins and minerals. Like every other part or your body, strong healthy hair depends on a balanced diet and lifestyle. The nutrients you eat today help to feed the hair follicle from which each strand is born.
