Healthy hair growth always seems to be a hot topic among black women. We all seem to know the basics: eat right, massage the scalp and keep heat styling to a minimum. However, there’s smaller tips and tricks that shouldn’t be ignored either.

Never forget that it may not seem like it, but your hair is in fact always growing. It’s things such as breakage and hair thinning that can make it seem like your tresses are constantly remaining in the same state. A lesser known cause for hair thinning is a deficiency of Vitamin D. Sadly, studies are showing more and more than many suffer from a Vitamin D deficiency.

Vitamin D has a direct baring on hair growth. If you fail to take in enough Vitamin D, your hair growth may become stunted and hair shedding will increase. So then, do not stunt the growth of your locks by forgetting the Vitamin D.

Not Sure How to Get Your Vitamin D? Of course you can get the majority of what you need from our wonderful sun up in the sky. Nevertheless, the rest can be consumed through the foods that you eat.
