Hair growth is all about your follicles, the tiny pockets in your scalp where hair grows. For those follicles to do their job, they need a steady supply of nutrients and oxygen from your blood. Poor circulation leads to sluggish follicles which leads to thinner hair.This is where yoga steps in. Many yoga poses encourage blood flow to the scalp by inverting the body or gently stretching muscles. The idea is simple: better circulation means your follicles are happier, healthier, and more likely to grow strong hair.Add in the fact that yoga lowers stress (and stress is a huge trigger for hair loss), and you can see why people swear by it.
