Hi
@puzhedai , the only app I found on google play called My Hair was from L'Oréal, used by hairstylists. It doesn´t sound like this one, a personal view on these, many of these apps need to make money, often they are full of adverts targeting the reason you use the app, or paid options within the app, they hope you will upgrade. If you want to check your hair density, there are many magnification devices you can buy, possibly even free as an app on your phone, using the camera. Maybe visit a dermatologist, but checking your hair daily is unlikely to help you, in fact more likely to make you paranoid about your hair.
Hair health, assuming you have no underlying medical conditions, is relatively simple, have a decent, balanced diet, keep away from bad foods, and try to eat healthy. No actual food is going to directly influence your hair from shedding, but overall may help to maintain a healthier looking head of hair, and in general your well being.
3 common worst hair foods
Sugar
Protein is important for your hair. Sugar hinders the absorption of protein. Added sugar is one to keep away from as much as possible. The public is becoming increasingly aware of the dangers of high levels of sugar in a diet.
Starchy white foods
High-glycemic foods include starchy white breads and pastas. Research shows that a high-glycemic diet can increase androgen hormone levels. Over-processed starches are converted into sugar, which can cause hair thinning and, in the worst-case scenario, hair loss.
High mercury content fish
Some types of fish naturally contain elevated levels of mercury. Prominent levels of mercury found in fish such as swordfish, mackerel, and some canned fish, including tuna, may be linked to hair loss in research studies. Like many things, it is a matter of everything in moderation. It is not necessary to remove these types of fish from your diet altogether, rather control the amount that is consumed per week.
Three common good hair foods
Blueberries
Blueberries are full of goodness containing vitamins A, C, and E. Consuming these as part of your daily diet can have overall benefits for your skin and hair. Proanthocyanidins, chemicals found in blueberries, stimulate hair growth. They help to accelerate the change from telogen to anagen phase of hair growth. Blueberries are rich in antioxidants, including vitamin B.
Oxidative stress is also associated with hair health and a review by International Journal of Cosmetic Science on the impact of oxidative stress on hair, links it to hair loss and unhealthy scalps. It is important, therefore, to maintain the required levels of antioxidants in the body to counteract oxidative stress.
Salmon
Salmon is a major source of omega-3 fatty acids, which have several health benefits. Wild salmon is preferable over farm raised. Salmon also has a high selenium content, a mineral that protects from sun exposure. Salmon and other oily fish are rich in vitamin D that stimulates hair follicles during the hair growth cycle. During the hair growth phase, hair follicles lay in a dormant stage.
Red peppers
Red bell peppers belong to the capsicum family of mild peppers with a slightly sweet taste. Peppers are good to add to your daily diet as they contain phytonutrients which have powerful antioxidants. They are also a useful source of nutrients such as vitamins C, A and B6 as well as vitamin E, vitamin K, folate, and potassium. Vitamin C is vital for the absorption of iron. Red bell peppers provide three hundred per cent of daily vitamin C intake. If there is an iron deficiency eating red bell peppers will help to increase maximum absorption.
