Will Lemon Water Promote Hair Growth?

My question is: If I wash my hair with lemon water, could that promote hair growth? That would be on a daily basis.

Although I love to drink lemon water on a daily basis, on your hair its generally used as a clarifying rinse for blondes. (Apple cider vinegar rinses are best suited for dark hair.) Its great to do this once a month or occasionally, but clarifiers remove natural oils from your hair as well as removing product build up. When you remove too many natural oils, your hair can become dry and brittle.

A better choice for hair growth, would be to start on a biotin supplement. To be more specific, you'll need Super Biotin to help reverse hair loss.

A major cause of hair loss in women, is a low thyroid function. It can be caused by an iodine deficiency.

Women can increase thyroid function, by using more sea salt with iodine, or by taking iodine supplements. Most people need around 12 milligrams a day.

Hair loss in men however, can be caused by a deficiency in omega 3 fatty acids. If you're not eating fish at least twice a week, take a fish oil supplement daily, to get more omega's.
