Cheryl Cole voted as 2011's hair icon by British women

Dec 2011

Cheryl Cole has been voted as the hair icon for 2011, leaving thousands of women envious of her thick, full locks.

Rather ironic considering she wears extensions most of the time.

In the survey by hair loss treatment MediGro, the 28-year-old singer beat the Duchess of Cambridge, Winslet, and singers Rihanna and Beyonce to top the poll, which was voted for by 5,000 women in the UK, the Daily Mail reported.

Despite accusations of "fakery" in the controversial L'Oreal adverts because she regularly used hair extensions, Cole's tresses are the ones most British women want to emulate.

The singer and beauty brand L'Oreal came under fire in 2009 when proclaiming a new shampoo's ability to revive her "weak, limp, lifeless" hair in a series of television adverts, even though she was using extensions.

This year she was criticised for her look on US 'The X Factor', from which she was axed after just four days work and replaced by singer Nicole Scherzinger.

Cole adopted a bouffant, voluminous 70s style that prompted critics to call for her to sack the stylist.

The singer took some months off after the humiliation of being dropped from the show, but emerged on her 28th birthday in June showing of sleek blonde locks.

Horsetail promotes hair growth and helps to strengthen hair. It is a good source of silica which is needed by the body to keep hair strong and shiny. Horsetail also promotes blood circulation to the scalp and help nutrients get to the hair follicle more easily.

Kelp contains over 30 minerals and reduces brittleness in individual hair strands. Kelp also helps to produce stronger, healthier looking hair and reduces the amount of thinning.

L-arginine has many hair-growth promoting qualities. Hair follicles use nitric oxide to maintain and promote new hair growth and L-arginine produces a substantial amount of nitric oxide. The increase in nitric oxide provides a increase of blood flow to the hair follicles helping to promote new hair growth.

Zinc is an essential mineral that is found in almost every cell and is vital for numerous processes in the body. It stimulates the activity of several enzymes and is therefore involved in normal cell growth, healthy immunity and the maintenance of healthy bones and hair.

L-lysine is an amino acid which helps the body adsorb iron and zinc. Iron and zinc are vital for normal hair growth and have been shown to inhibit the enzyme that causes alopecia. Recent studies have reported remarkable hair growth in those suffering hair loss.

Biotin, also known as Vitamin B7, is used by the body to develop new skin cells. Biotin appears to metabolize fatty acids which are valuable growth components in the many processes in the body, including the hair. Biotin strengthens hair stands, prevents breakage and may also slow down hair loss.
