Demi Moore’s shiny, waist-length locks are not just beautiful – they reveal a fundamental truth about hair health: it starts from within.

The actress, aged 62, has been in the spotlight for snagging her first major industry award – for best actress for her role in The Substance – at the Golden Globes, and many have been talking about her hair. Experts say her approach to hair care reveals important lessons about maintaining healthy locks at any age.

“When I’m not working, I try to do as little to it as possible. It’s stressful even having someone touch it. If I don’t have anywhere to go, I don’t put heat on it – I just try to let it do its own thing. And I don’t wash it too often,” Moore told People magazine in a 2022 interview.

“I get regular tiny trims. The rest comes from the inside out. You have to eat well, all those things.”

Beatriz Robles, a food technologist and expert in nutrition and dietetics, told lifestyle magazine Vogue: “Changes in the appearance, volume, or density of hair can be a sign that there is a nutritional deficit in our diet.”
