What Your Hair Says About You and Your Health

Every day, we naturally lose around 50 - 100 strands of hair. What most people don’t realize is how much scientists can reveal about a person just based on one of those hairs. Forensic scientists that specialize in hair use their skills to often help piece together clue to solve crimes. Recovered hair samples can even help uncover facts about our early ancestors. Our hair is an extension of ourselves. What we go through, it goes through.

Based on the isotopes in a person’s hair, it can reveal the type of diet that you follow. Scientists can tell if you eat meat and, if you do, they can tell if you prefer fish to chicken or beef, are vegan or vegetarian or if you haven’t eaten in some time. Based on your diet, your hair can represent your overall health. If you aren’t getting enough nutrients and vitamins in your body, your hair will reflect that, both microscopically and with the naked eye.

There are obvious visual traits or indicators about your hair that any layperson can pick-up on without a microscope, to formulate a perception of you. Often times your hair can give away your age or different medical conditions can cause hair loss or thinning hair which can cause a person to appear unhealthy. Alternatively, a thick and full head of hair may send a message to some people that you are a strong, youthful person, with good genetics. In a way, it's almost like a giant billboard sitting on top of our heads, informing others of what they can expect from us.

Ultimately, YOUR hair affects how YOU feel about yourself and your confidence is often the biggest factor in how you present yourself to others. If you feel good about your appearance and your hair, your smile will reveal that you are full of confidence and ready to take on the world.
