Poor Diet & Hair Growth
I was a typical food lover. I would eat everything and anything that satisfied my sugar, salt and fat cravings. Some of my favorite fast food options were McDonalds, Taco Bell, Kentucky Fried Chicken and any Chinese restaurant that used “extra” msg. 
I was also addicted to Coca-Cola and caffeine. Now I only drank coffee 3 days a week once I started university, and some Saturday mornings on my way to church. My favorite was french vanilla. My favorite dessert was any bag of chips followed by a coke. I would drink pop more than juice. I would drink juice more than water. But I rarely ever drank water. The less flavor the food or drink had, the further away I stayed from it. Any pastry or baked good, covered with sugar or icing was my second favorite dessert.
I loved candy and chocolate bars! The more sugar the better.
Poor Diet Stops Hair Growth
Growing up my hair didn’t grow at all. It usually stayed at “ear level”. My hair has never really grown past my neck and it was always thin, brittle and very dry. It’s so sad because the children at school made fun of me calling me “Kentucky Fried Chicken Hair” because my hair was so “crispy”. I thought they were being cruel, but looking back, I didn’t know how true they were! I knew I wasn’t the healthiest person, but my terrible eating habits did not affect my life dramatically, so I didn’t change them. Well, I am sure you know this saying, ” All Good Things Must Come To an End”. In 2013, I got really sick with Candida Overgrowth and I knew something in my life had to change. I decided to go on a detox and try to rid my body of all of the toxins that I have allowed to build up in my body over the years. I ate nothing but organic vegetables (no fruit except green apples) and organic meats, with the occasional brown rice or quinoa. I drank nothing but water, organic peppermint or green tea as well as water with lemon in it and I continued to flush the toxins out of my body. And guess what? After 40 days, I was CURED!!

The best part about feeling healthy was that my skin cleared up, my nails were stronger and my hair started growing more as well. 
My hair felt more moisturized and it was stronger. When I brushed my hair, it didn’t fall out. When I was in the shower, my hair wasn’t all over the walls or the shower floor. When I ran my fingers through my hair, it stayed in my scalp for me to feel and to enjoy. My hair looked and felt great! I also noticed more growth then I did the previous time I tried to grow my hair. It grew faster! 
At this point in my life, I had done a lot of research on my alopecia and my hair loss problem. I knew that diet was an important part of growing my hair, along with the proper hair products and a strong regimen. But I didn’t know how drastic my hair would change for the better, with a well balanced diet. I was thrilled that my hair has growing, but the best part about this was that it was no longer falling out. My alopecia and hair loss problem was going away for good!
Hey Jass! Why did you refrain from organic fruit during your cleanse (besides the green apples)?
Hello Micah! Great question!
I was suffering from a condition called Candida Overgrowth and one of the things that I had to do to naturally cure myself was to cut out All forms of sugar.
You can read more about that here;
http://www.livenaturallyhealthy.com/dear-diary-the-beginning/
So fruits and veggies that were very sweet were a no-no. I only ate green apples because they had a very low sugar content.
I was able to naturally cure myself after 50 days and my body and hair has been thriving ever since.
I hope this helped you.
Have a great day!

Hello Jass,
I have been diagnosed with Alopecia Areata Universalis so all of my hair has fallen out. I am now eating clean (more plant based), no sugar and water only. My eye brows, lashes and side hair has come back but very little on my scalp. What do you recommend that would grow my hair again?

Hey, would you say changing your diet was a main contribution to being alopciea areata free ??
Great question!
I was using my natural AF products and my hair started to grow back, however, it felt dry and brittle. I was afraid that the alopecia would return so I changed my diet. My hair flourished and hasn’t fallen out again.
So I believe that natural products can stimulate hair growth and get your hair growing, but becoming healthy (through diet and ridding yourself of stress overload) can help your new growth to flourish and stop the alopecia from returning. A healthy diet can help to heal your body, which is why I believe my alopecia has not returned.
You can find out everything that I ate, drank, etc. in my Detox & Diet ebook here:

I hope this helps you. Have a great day!

Hi Jass,
I’ve visited 2 dermatologists and I was told that I have scarring alopecia. One doctor told me my hair would be like this for the rest of my life, the other attempted steroid injections. One doctor told me my hair would be like this for the rest of my life, the other attempted steroid shots that were not successful. Have you had any clients with success of hair growth with a history of scarring alopecia?
I used to have big healthy hair and for and 4 years I’ve noticed shedding and thinning. I literally cry in the shower sometimes. I don’t know what to do at this point.
Hello Ashley, I am so sorry that you are going through this. Please know that you are not alone. Please send me an email and let’s try to tackle this together. Big Hugs xo
