Dr. Knox Beasley, board-licensed dermatologist and specialist in men's hair loss, explains the type of vitamins you need for hair health.
Vitamin A
Important to both the immune health that protects the hair follicles and the cell growth and cell division processes for hair.
Research has also shown that vitamin A helps you keep the hair on your head.
Vitamin B
Important to the growth and health of your hair.
Vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin B7, riboflavin, biotin, folate and vitamin B12, are all different versions of the vitamin B complex, which plays crucial roles in hair growth, cellular development, cell signaling and gene regulation.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C plays a critical role in iron absorption in the intestines. Low iron levels can slow your hair growth and ultimately cause hair loss over time.
Vitamin D
Critical tool in warding off conditions like telogen effluvium (a type of hair loss) and androgenetic alopecia. So if you’re deficient, you’re giving these hair loss types a leg up.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E is an important fat-soluble antioxidant for your hair, and it protects against oxidative stress in your hair follicles, which can destroy them if allowed.
To prevent vitamin deficiency-related hair loss:
Eat a balanced diet.
Take supplements regularly.
Try topical vitamins and minerals.
Ask your healthcare provider about hair loss treatments.
