💤 Sleep

Poor sleep messes with hormone balance, and that affects hair. Aim for 7–8 hours of uninterrupted rest. No scrolling, no TV—just let your body reset.

💧 Hydration

Your strands need water to stay elastic and strong. Half your body weight in ounces is a good starting point. Try adding fruit to your water if plain water bores you.

😌 Stress

Stress raises cortisol, which can speed up hair loss. You don’t need to meditate for an hour—just take 5 minutes to breathe, stretch, or sit in silence each day.

🚶🏽‍♀️Movement

Moving your body helps blood flow to the scalp. That means more nutrients get to your follicles. A quick walk, light yoga, or 10 minutes of dancing in your kitchen counts.

Boostie-Approved Foods That Feed the Follicles

Your hair is made of protein and thrives on nutrients. These are the key ones to focus on:

• Iron – Helps carry oxygen to your follicles.

  ▸ Found in: spinach, lentils, beef, pumpkin seeds

• B Vitamins (especially Biotin, B6, B12) – Support strong strands and reduce shedding.

  ▸ Found in: eggs, salmon, sweet potatoes, beans

• Omega-3s – Fight inflammation and help hair grow stronger.

  ▸ Found in: flaxseeds, walnuts, salmon, chia seeds

• Protein – Your hair is mostly keratin (a protein). If you’re low on protein, you’ll see breakage and slow growth.

  ▸ Found in: eggs, quinoa, greek yogurt, tofu

Real-World Tip:

Boosties love adding green smoothies with spinach, flaxseed, and berries to their routine—quick, affordable, and hair-friendly.

Herbs & Supplements That Actually Help

You don’t need a whole apothecary. Here are a few that support hair and scalp health naturally:

• Nettle Leaf – Rich in iron and silica, helps reduce shedding and supports circulation to the scalp.

• Spearmint Tea – Shown to help balance androgens (hormones tied to hereditary hair thinning).

• Rosemary – Improves circulation and stimulates the scalp. (Also found in our Hair Boost.)
