Hair-fooding
Hair-fooding was born from associating a perfect knowledge of hair (the notion of a living element that needs health and wellbeing, a body part that is often treated roughly) to an art of living where eating is no more a duty, but becomes a pleasure that mixes conviviality and gustatory adventure.
Today, Sylver Boll, Sergio Bossi's artistic director, brings together your hair's health and wellbeing with the pleasure of eating.
Today, your hairdresser is not only a creator responsible for your look, he/she is also an adviser and initiator of your hair's health!
4 hair-fooding recipes:
1. Orange and Carrot Soup
Preparation: 30 mn, Cooking: 20 mn
Ingredients for 4 people:
- 500 g of sliced carrots
- 1 big potato, peeled and sliced
- 500 ml of poultry broth
- 250 ml of orange juice
- 1 teaspoon of freshly grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon of ground curry
Preparation:
Mix all the ingredients. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for about 20 mn (vegetables must be soft). Puree. Serve the soup topped with some yogurt and dill.
The vitamin A from the carrots and the orange juice contributes to your hair’s growth and brings shine and flexibility to it. The vitamin E found in the orange increases the cutaneous (scalp) micro-circulation that influences the hair’s growth.
2. Fruity Garden Cocktail
Ingredients for one big glass:
- 100 ml of orange juice
- 100 ml of beet juice
- 100 ml of apple juice
Preparation:
The day before, mix all the ingredients and put them in the refrigerator. Drink the next morning for a nice, fresh wake-up. For fresher vitamins, peel the fruits and vegetables just before drinking your cocktail. Add some ice and shake in a shaker to get a refreshing effect.
Orange is rich in vitamin C, a source of energy, which gives you all the strength you need as early as breakfast, while allowing you to treat yourself. The vitamin A found in beets, a vegetable high in trace elements, contributes to your hair's growth and brings them shine and flexibility, while vitamin B2 contributes to your hair's health.
3. Avocado / Banana Cups

Mix everything in the blender.

The vitamins B5 and B7, found in avocados and bananas, act against your hair drying out and loss. They also bring body and flexibility.
