You can get vitamins at the GNM store. I think that’s what it’s called……?? but, prenatal vitamins work very well too, even if you’re not pregnant. Lots of women take them…..

Enjoy the wholesome goodness found in all natural carrots. They are full of vitamins that will make your hair shiny and your skin baby soft.

This is a good supplement. Totally vegetarian friendly:

Cold pressed oils are all fantastic for the condition of skin and hair. Try flaxseed oil which contains all the omega oils your body needs. Wheatgerm oil is very good as well with plenty of vitamin E.
Nuts such as almonds are fantastic for dry skin, as are avocado pears and all types of seeds like sunflower and pumpkin. Kiwi fruit are packed full of skin boosting vitamins E and C.
Seaweed such as kelp and nori is traditionally used to boost hair growth as it has a high level of iron,vit B12 , iodine and silica. There are supplements that can be taken containing silica but try eating lots of onions, cucumbers,melons and bamboo shoots instead.

Also vegan diets if not followed properly, may lack iron,zinc, b vitamins and calcium which are also needed for healthy skin and hair growth. This may cause anemia and brittle nails and hair. You can take supplements of all these but it is best to check out which vitamins are contained in which foods and stick to a balanced diet. All the information you need can be found on the internet.

All the best
