At GM Scalp, we believe that beautiful, healthy hair begins at the root — and just like your skin and body, your hair and scalp need the right nutrients to thrive. While our Japanese Head Spa treatments help detoxify the scalp, improve circulation, and relax the mind, what you nourish your body with on the inside plays an equally important role in supporting strong, vibrant hair.
If you’re looking to boost hair growth and improve hair health, here are the top vitamins and nutrients your scalp and strands will thank you for:
The Essential Vitamins for Hair Growth
1. Biotin (Vitamin B7)
You’ve probably heard of biotin — and for good reason. Known as the hair growth vitamin, biotin helps strengthen the hair shaft, improve elasticity, and support the production of keratin, the protein your hair is made from.
2. Vitamin D
Vitamin D isn’t just for your bones. A deficiency can contribute to hair thinning and slow regrowth. This sunshine vitamin helps stimulate new hair follicles and keeps your scalp in a healthy, balanced state.
3. Vitamin C
A powerful antioxidant, Vitamin C protects hair follicles from free radical damage while supporting collagen production, which helps maintain a strong, healthy scalp. It also aids in the absorption of iron — another essential for hair growth.
4. Vitamin E
Often found in scalp serums and treatments, Vitamin E boosts circulation to the scalp, creating the perfect environment for healthy hair follicles and reducing oxidative stress.
5. Vitamin A
Essential for cell growth and the production of natural scalp oils, Vitamin A helps keep the scalp hydrated and healthy. But a little goes a long way — too much can lead to hair loss, so balance is key.
6. B-Complex Vitamins
This group of vitamins — including B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, and B12 — are vital for energy production, blood circulation, and delivering essential nutrients to the hair follicles. Niacin (B3) and B12 are particularly beneficial for maintaining healthy, strong hair.
Other Important Hair-Boosting Nutrients
Iron: Essential for preventing hair thinning and shedding, especially in women.
Zinc: Supports hair tissue growth and repair while keeping oil glands around follicles working properly.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Nourish hair follicles, add shine, and reduce scalp dryness.
Protein: As hair is made of keratin, a type of protein, a protein-rich diet ensures your strands stay strong and resilient.
Pair Nutrition with Scalp Care at GM Scalp
While nourishing your body from within is vital, don’t forget to treat your scalp to a little TLC on the outside too. Our Japanese Head Spa treatments deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and stimulate the scalp, improving blood flow and helping your hair follicles absorb all those beneficial vitamins and nutrients more effectively.
