Healthy Hair Growth Tips: The Holistic Approach to Stronger, Shinier Strands
Healthy hair is more than a beauty goal; it’s a reflection of overall wellness. Factors like stress, environmental exposure and styling can wreak havoc on your hair and scalp, leading to thinning, dryness, breakage and loss of shine. That’s why achieving stronger, more resilient hair requires a 360° approach that fortifies, protects and restores from root to strand.
Check off the must-dos on the list below to achieve nourished, vibrant hair from the inside-out and outside-in.

✓ Stick to Dr. Perricone’s Anti-Inflammatory Diet
A diet with essential nutrients and without refined sugars, carbs, processed foods and alcohol is key — not just for your overall wellness, but for the health of your hair and skin, too.
Foods rich in omega-3s are particularly important because they keep the scalp hydrated and help strengthen strands to help promote hair growth, reduce shedding, prevent breakage and promote shine. Some omega-rich foods include:
- Eggs
Fish: wild salmon, tuna & mackerel Lean proteins: chicken, turkey, beef loin & pork loin Greens: spinach, kale & broccoli Nuts & seeds: flaxseeds, chia seeds & walnuts
✓ Add in Supplemental Support
Dietary supplements are key to ensuring your body has all the appropriate nutrients it needs — some of which aren't always obtainable from the foods you eat.
Our Skin & Total Body Plus+ supplements are the go-to vitamins for healthy hair. They offer the ultimate support for healthy, lustrous hair by nourishing your total body (hair, skin, eyes, bones, joints and muscles) from the inside-out.† Featuring a targeted Hair Strengthening capsule formulated with keratin to support hair strength and reduce hair loss by 43%*†, it’s proven to work in conjunction with your haircare and diet to support a healthier, shinier you from hair to toe.
