Why drinking water is good for your hair

We can get so carried away with this hair serum, this vitamin and this beauty find but we often forget to drink enough water. Not to give you a science lesson but up to 60% of the human body is water. Water makes up 25% of the weight in a strand of hair so if you are not drinking enough your body feels it and so does your hair.

Now we all know we should drink at least 2 litres of water a day and this is because water hydrates – the skin, scalp and even your locks. It will help strengthen and grow your hair. Water has soo many internal benefits too it cushions joints, helps you to absorb nutrients and has been proven to help keep weight in check.

Soo drink! your! water! 

Tip: I like to add berries, cucumbers, citrus fruits and sometimes mint to keep things interesting.

And when its hot like this nothing beats a nice cold glass of sparkling water – well there is always wine but *shrug*.
