Eating mango is good for your overall health and your hair in a variety of ways. Since it’s high in vitamins A and C, it helps with blood circulation of the scalp which helps with hair growth. According to hairsentinel.com, “These are both important nutrients in the battle against hair loss. They keep the hair supple and help prevent breakage by supporting the body's production of 'sebum', the oily substance in the hair follicles. Sebum also keeps the scalp healthy, preventing dandruff and itching.” While eating a mango is great for your health, applying it to your hair has some of the same benefits. It is also a great way to moisturize your strands and scalp.

Here are a few of the benefits of doing a mango hair mask:

• It can treat dandruff without further irritating the scalp. Mango is rich in vitamins that help to balance the sebum production which plays a role in dandruff.
• Since it helps keep the scalp healthy and the blood circulating, it can help with hair growth at the follicle level.
• The vitamins found in mangos can help to strengthen the keratin bonds which makes hair stronger and less prone to breakage.
• It is super moisturizing! Since it’s a juicy fruit, it should come as no surprise that mangos are 82% water. This makes them super hydrating for your strands!
