I’m 48 and reversed hair thinning with 95p fruit – my long and glossy locks are almost down to my bouncy rump
A BEAUTY expert has revealed the cheap supermarket buy that helps your hair grow thick and glossy.
Star Khechara, 48, has managed to reverse ageing to her hair and skin with simple methods – and she helps others to do the same with her Age Hacker platform.
Her latest revelation is how she managed to grow “lush, thick hair” even in perimenopause thanks to one diet tweak.
The anti-ageing expert insists that our skin and hair need to be fed internally, not by applying expensive products.
And according to Star, this approach means she now has the “longest, thickest hair” of her life at 48.
Star says: “You can prevent or at least slow down hair-thinning in perimenopause by following a hormone-balancing functional plant-based diet rich in phytoestrogens and phytochemicals.
“My hair is almost down to my bouncy rump and has never been this long since I was a child!!
“My hair used to badly split and break until I started feeding it within using my own Facelift Diet methods and now I have the longest thickets hair I’ve ever had despite being 48.”
She added: “I remember my mum cutting all her hair short at this age and telling me that ‘women over 40 can’t have long hair”’. I say F*** THAT!”
And her big secret? Eating more fruit.
Star dubs fruit as “the underdog of food” as “there are things in fruit that aren’t even in vegetables”.
When it comes to hair in particular, the beauty pro says the humble mango is key to getting your locks to grow.
She told Fabulous: “Mango is the hair fruit! It’s super rich in pro vitamin A (beta carotene) which is essential for building keratin, the strong hard protein that hair is built from.”
You can pick up a full mango for as little as 95p in Tesco or Asda, making it a very cheap beauty hack.
And it doesn’t just help your hair either, as Star added that Vitamin A is also one of the top skin vitamins for healthy skin.
“Beta carotene also mitigates the effects if sun damage in the skin”, she continued.
The Facelift Diet
Star is the pioneer of the Facelift Diet.
“The Facelift Diet is basically a fruit-centric and plant-based anti-ageing diets,” she explained to Fabulous earlier this year.
“It’s about eating anti-ageing foods in abundance.
“It’s not restrictive or calorie counting or anything.
“Certain foods have rejuvenating properties and you can slow down ageing with your diet.”
And revealing her shopping list essential from the supermarket, she said: “It’s all about fruit.
“If you take anything away from this, eat more fruit.
“There are things in fruit that aren’t even in vegetables.
“It’s the underdog of food groups.”
