At Foil Me…more is what you deserve… and we love our partnership with The Nourishing Body Co. that helps us to add a little sweetness to your day.
The Nourishing Body Co. created their Inner Hair Nutrition Bites as a functional food which helps to support and maintain the health of your hair from within so our Marketing and Social Media Visionary, Lucy, decided to put the Inner Hair Nutrition bites to the test.
But first, did you know that these bites are infused with high quality active ingredients such as:
Inner Hair Nutrition bites are the perfect way to maximise your hair health and they taste great too - what better way to get ready for your wedding which is just months away for our Lucy.
Now, Lucy has very curly, luscious hair to begin with, so we were interested to see if the bites would support the health of her curls or help with the growth of her hair whilst indulging in the 30 Day Variety Pack ‘A bite for healthier hair – Variety Bundle’ and this is what we found...
What benefits did you notice from 30 Days of Inner Hair Nutrition bites?
When I comb my hair, I normally end up with a giant ball of hair as a parting gift, but I've noticed that I am losing a lot less hair now, which is amazing!
By having less breakage, my mane is definitely thicker, especially around the middle and ends.
I’ve also had a lot of new growth around my hair line, close to my part.
Was it just your hair that saw improvements?
I also saw a huge improvement in my nail health! I recently removed my gel nails, which left my natural nails feeling very frail and damaged.
I noticed a really big improvement in the strength of my nails and how the length has been maintained without breakage. I also noticed my eyelashes were a lot longer.
What was your favourite flavour?
Ohhhh it’s so hard to pick, but if I had to pick one it would be Vanilla!
So, there you have it! The proof is in the pudding...well, the BITE in this case!

]]>Rachael the founder of the Nourishing Body Co and I connected on Instagram and she kindly gifted me a 30-Day Inner Hair Nutrition Pack to try and I WAS SO DAMN EXCITED.
Rachael being a qualified hair stylist, knows her sh*t and the Nourishing Body Co team are passionate about nourishing your hair and body with quality ingredients that help boost your hairs health from the inside out.
“Today’s research shows that healthy on the outside starts on the inside. So, armed with this knowledge and my industry experience as a hair stylist, I set out to develop something that could truly complement your hair and Inner Hair Nutrition was born.” - Rachael, Founder The Nourishing Body Co.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS -
It’s no secret that A) I am a serial snacker and B) I love all things hair, skin and nails so immediately I felt this was a match that would rival any right swipe on Tinder. Plus the packaging is super cute!
TASTE -
The bites come in three delightful flavours – Vanilla, Choc Coconut and Salted Caramel.
The first that I tried was Vanilla and I was immediately transported back to my childhood, when we use to make Butter Cakes on the weekend. YUMMO! Next up was the Choc Coconut – it reminded me of a yummy chocolate brownie. *insert drool face here* Then Salted Caramel – think McDonalds Caramel Sundae.
STOMACH SENSITIVITY –
I have quite a sensitive stomach and it’s not uncommon for me to feel uncomfortable, gassy and bloated after eating protein snacks/powders etc to the point where my poor stomach actually yells at me. I didn’t know how I was going to get through my 30 Day Pack if it my stomach didn’t like these too! BUT to my surprise, I didn’t have to give it a second thought. These bites were so gentle on me and my tum. I didn’t have any issues, no bloating, no gas and no negative feedback from my tummy! HOW GOOD.
INGREDIENTS -
All of the Inner Hair Nutrition Bites are made with wholefood ingredients, naturally flavoured, nothing artificial, no dairy, no gluten and Non-GMO. Win, win, win! YUM! These bad boys have 3 main active ingredients, (my 3 new besties) Bovine Collagen, Hyaluronic Acid and Biotin.
Bovine Collagen helps get your hair follicles the proteins it needs to help strengthen your hair. (also great for skin and nails tick, tick, tick) ✔️ ✔️
Hyaluronic Acid helps your scalp retain moisture, leaving you with soft, shiny and supple locks! 👏🏼
And lastly, Biotin is a B Vitamin that helps our bodies pull energy from carbs/fats which is used to boost the properties of my other two friends, Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid. 🙌🏼
RESULTS** –
‘Do they actually work?!’ My answer is YES, YES, YES 100% YES!
Within a few days I noticed new hair growth. You know what I’m talking about, those little baby hairs near your temples. At first, I thought maybe they were short stands of hairs due to breakage/stress but no. Hairdresser confirmed, NEW BABY HAIR!
My hair was shiny, even on the days I forgot to use conditioner (oops).
And then, if I wasn’t already loving the bites enough, I took a Day 7 progress photo and WOW! My hair had grown significantly after just seven days!
As I continued to eat my nourishing treats the strength/dryness of my hair had improved tenfold, as I was seeing less hair in my hair brush and less hair wedged between my fingers in the shower after washing. If you know, you know.
An added surprise was that my nails had never been so strong and ‘pretty’ – I am someone who would regularly get shellac nails and I haven’t had to these last couple of weeks because I’m so stoked with the length and health of my actual nails! WHO AM I.

Do you feel like your hair will not grow past a certain length, no matter what products you buy or the effort you put into it? Your lack of hair growth can be primarily due to a combination of factors such as hormonal, dietary or hereditary.
Diet is often a much-neglected factor when it comes to hair care and a kept-secret to growing strong and healthy hair. The right diet can work wonders and have a significant impact on your overall health, including your hair.
To maximize hair growth and strengthen it, you need to take a better look at your diet. Is it inclusive of functional and whole foods that are loaded with vitamins and minerals? Functional foods with active ingredients are highly important, not just for hair growth but for the wellbeing of the human body. Examples of functional/whole foods include fruits and vegetables along with nuts, seeds, grains and prebiotic fibre. Incorporating these kinds of foods into your diet is the first step towards longer, healthier hair.
Our Hair Growth Cycle
Understanding how hair grows can better aid us in knowing what nutrients and vitamins are essential for your hair. Our scalp has thousands of hair follicles through which hair grows. The average person has somewhere between 90 thousand to 150 thousand hair follicles.
Our hair cycle has three distinct stages: Anagen (growing), Catagen (intermediate) and Telogen (resting). Numerous factors impact each phase but none more than a diet.
Our hair is made mainly of a protein called Keratin (also found in nails and skin) formed by amino acids. Its protein is the building block of hair, it is no surprise that protein is one of the most essential nutrients required for robust and healthy hair. Apart from proteins, the hair also needs vitamins, particularly vitamins A, B group, C, D and E plus minerals like Iron, Zinc and Fatty Acids (omega 3’s). This is where edible hair care, as a concept, was born……
Of course you could whisk some things up in the kitchen by yourself and make some miracle blend. But, wouldn’t it be easier to just eat one edible hair care bite a day that has all the vitamins and minerals all in one place.
Inner Hair Nutrition bites by The Nourishing Body Co are exactly that. A edible hair care product that is gentle on the tummy and amazing for your hair. As a company, the ethos is that great hair starts from within.
Ingredients in the Inner Hair Nutrition Bites
Inner Hair Nutrition is made up of all-natural ingredients that actively aid and accelerate hair growth. Some of the active ingredients include Bovine Collagen, Hyaluronic Acid and Biotin. These bites are available in three yummy flavours: Chocolate Coconut, Vanilla and Salted Caramel.
Collagen: is a natural protein found in ample amounts in our bodies. It strengthens and hydrates our hair, skin and nails. Bovine Collagen (not vegan) is sourced from pasture-raised cows and is the particular collagen utilized in each bite. It helps supply the hair follicle with vital amino acids that are used in the formation of Keratin, which is roughly 80% of our hair. One Inner Hair Nutrition bite contains 2000mg of Bovine Collagen.
Hyaluronic Acid: HA is highly prevalent in the skin care market and is found in just about every skin serum product. It is known for its talent to retain moisture. It’s a key ingredient in Inner Hair Nutrition bites as it hydrates the scalp and the hair bulb, giving our hair a soft and supple texture. HA also helps reduce hair loss and makes the hair more robust. Food grade Hyaluronic Acid is fairly new to the health food industry, therefore, this is a very exciting inclusion in these bites.
Biotin: Biotin is part of the B vitamin family. In short, it’s a Complex vitamin B. Biotin works in helping the body extract energy from fats and carbohydrates. This energy is then used in repairing cells aided by the Hyaluronic Acid and Collagen.
Sugar content: Inner Hair Nutrition bites contain the extract of monk fruit as the natural sweetener of choice. Monk fruit sweeteners are 150-200 times sweeter than sugar and contribute sweetness to foods and beverages without adding calories. This means only an incredibly small amount of Monk Fruit is needed to create a sweet, yet decadent flavour. A single Inner Hair Nutrition bite contains only 3.9 grams of sugar.

That’s all great but do they actually taste good?
Individually each bite flavour has rich and all-natural ingredients to make sure they actually taste great! Salted Caramel combines Himalayan rock salt with natural caramel. Likewise, the Vanilla bites are flavoured with natural vanilla pods. Lastly, Chocolate Coconut has a rich grounded cacao base with Organic Coconut for extra flavour. These combined with the above active ingredients aid in supporting healthier longer, and more luminous locks.
This edible hair care is developed sustainably. The ingredients are selected and sourced with the utmost care and special attention is given to them being “all-natural.”
Less is always more with this product. Hence, just one Inner Hair Nutrition bite a day consistently will show you a visible difference in hair strength and shine within just ONE week. This edible hair care is the answer to your hair problems. It is consistently gaining popularity and is the future of hair care and hair health.
