14. Orange Fruits and Vegetables
Beta-carotene protects the skin from excessive dryness, and your hair from thinning, by causing your scalp to produce more sebum, which is necessary in keeping the hairs healthy and shiny. Generally, any orange-colored vegetable is a good source of beta-carotene. Carrots, pumpkins, mangos and muskmelons all contain beta-carotene, and are recommended for people with weak and thinning hair.

Whether your hair is thinning or not, gray hairs can make it look thinner. Copper is necessary in maintaining your natural hair color, even if you’re not ginger. In 2012, a study found that people who consumed lower levels of copper turned gray earlier in their life. The best solution is to consume the copper-rich shitake mushrooms.
