Collagen vs Keratin for Hair


 Here's how collagen supplements benefit hair growth and health, unlike keratin:

- Helps build keratin: Collagen is rich in amino acids that your body uses to build keratin, the protein that makes up hair

- Antioxidant properties: Collagen can fight free radicals that damage hair follicles, which can prevent premature graying

- Maintains skin elasticity: Since hair grows out of your skin, collagen's ability to maintain skin elasticity may contribute to better hair growth and decreased thinning

- Hair growth: Collagen may promote hair growth, as it is found around the hair follicle

- Improves hair elasticity: Collagen can improve hair elasticity, making it less prone to damage and breakage


Keratin treatments or supplements can do the following for hair that collagen does not:

- Smooth the hair cuticle to reduce frizz and make hair easier to manage

- Strengthen hair and reduce breakage, which can make hair seem to grow faster

- Make curly hair less frizzy and easier to style

- Make hair appear shinier and glossier

- Temporarily bond together split ends

- Reduce the time it takes for hair to dry

    Thank you for the informative article! It's excellent to learn about the benefits of collagen and keratin for hair health. I find it interesting how collagen helps build keratin and protects hair follicles, while keratin treatments manage frizz and strengthen hair. Also, it's crucial to incorporate a biotin supplement into your routine. With biotin for hair growth becomes more manageable because it supports keratin production and promotes healthier hair. Some can come in gummy form. Combining biotin with collagen or keratin could offer comprehensive benefits for achieving healthier, stronger hair.

What to do if it seems like your natural hair is not growing

@breezyspuffs (IG) If it feels like your hair isn’t growing, the issue may not actually be growth itself—hair grows about half an inch per month on average. The problem may be breakage, slow growth, or factors that hinder visible length retention. Here’s what you can do to promote healthier, stronger growth: 1. Check Your Routine for Breakage Causes: • Reduce heat styling: Excessive use of flat irons, curling irons, and blow-dryers can damage hair. Try air-drying or using lower heat settings and always use a heat protectant. • Limit chemical treatments: Frequent coloring, perming, or relaxing can weaken hair, leading to breakage. • Be gentle when detangling: Use a wide-tooth comb and start from the ends, working your way up to avoid pulling and snapping. 2. Moisturize Regularly: • Dry hair is more prone to breakage, so keep it hydrated. Use moisturizing conditioners, deep conditioners, or hair masks weekly, and consider leave-in conditioners or oils like coconut
