After we understand the cause behind hair loss, it is time to treat it with some effective home remedies that will keep your scalp and follicles clean and encourage healthy growth. 

 

Home Remedies That'll Encourage Hair Growth:

1. Aloe Vera 

Aloe vera can be used to moisturize your scalp and will prevent it from getting dry and itchy, while balancing its pH levels. Apply pure aloe vera gel directly on the scalp and gently massage it with your fingers for about 10 minutes. Leave the gel on your scalp for a few hours and then wash with lukewarm water. Repeat this procedure twice a week for best results. 

 

2. Hot Oil Massage 

A very effective home remedy for hair growth, massaging the head and scalp with hot oil has several benefits: it can rejuvenate your hair follicles, improve the blood flow to the scalp, prevent dandruff and prevent hair loss. You can use either almond, olive, coconut, jojoba, rosemary or lavender oil - but remember to massage your scalp daily. The oil should be warm or lukewarm. Leave the oil in your hair for at least 30 minutes, then wash it off. For best results, leave the oil overnight and wash it in the morning.

3. Onion Juice  

You may not know this, but onion juice is one of the oldest remedies for encouraging hair growth. The sulfur in the onion juice promotes the creation of collagen proteins and aids in the growth of new hair. Chop a few red onions (or shallots) into small pieces. Then, squeeze the juice out of them. Apply the juice to your scalp for 15 minutes and then rinse off with a mild shampoo. Do this every other day for best results.    

 

4. Apple Cider Vinegar 

Is there anything this material can't do? Even when it comes to washing your scalp, vinegar will help keep it clean and healthy, and prevent infections (as well as dandruff). A clean and healthy scalp will definitely help hair grow faster. Shampoo your hair well, and then rinse it with diluted apple cider vinegar for healthy, shiny hair.

5. Egg 

 A simple egg can make for a good hair mask and egg will provide your hair with needed proteins. The egg also provides a few other essential nutrients the hair needs, such as iron, selenium, phosphorus, zinc, sulfur etc. Take a regular egg and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil and honey. Mix them well and apply the resulting paste onto your hair. Leave it like that for about 20 minutes and then rinse with cool water and shampoo. 

 

6. Green Tea 

As a powerful antioxidant, green tea can be used both as an external and internal solution. Drinking 3-4 cups of green tea a day will help your overall body health as well as promote regrowth of hair follicles. You can help this by applying some warm green tea to your scalp and leaving it there for about an hour. Then, rinse off the green tea with cool water, and your hair will become shiny and soft.

7. Oil of Vitamin E 

Oil enriched with vitamin E has powerful antioxidant properties and can remove the free radicals that damage our cells. In addition, it can purify the oxygen supply to the scalp and blood flow, which help in healthy hair growth. Take the oil and massage it gently into the scalp, leave in overnight and wash it with a mild shampoo when you get up. 

 

8. Henna 

Henna is a natural conditioner. Apply a bit to make your dry hair softer and smoother. Henna strengthens the root of the hair as well. Mix 2 tablespoons of henna powder with half a cup of yogurt, and let it sit for 2 hours. Apply the mix to your hair and leave it there for about 1 hour. Then, wash it off with cold water.

9. Coconut Milk Coconut milk is heavy in protein and happens to also contain large amounts of iron, potassium and various fats that are essential to the body. Using coconut milk on your scalp and hair will reduce your hair loss while strengthening your individual hairs. 

 

10. Banana and Honey 

Banana and honey make for a powerful mix that can perform as a conditioner and moisturizer for your hair. Mash one banana and add a tablespoon of honey to create a mixture. Apply this mix to your hair, leave it for 45 minutes and then wash it off.

8 Home Remedies for Hair Loss

Hair loss is normal. But, when it happens in excess, it’s frightening and upsetting. It’s common to lose about 50-100 strands a day, and up to 250 strands when you wash your hair. About 10% of your hair is dormant, and will fall out after 2-3 months. Sometimes you may not realize that everyday habits can contribute to hair loss. Here are some natural ways to promote hair growth and prevent hair loss, as well as some tips on what not to do to ensure that your hair stays on your head. 

 

1.  Coconut milk

Coconut milk contains a rich source of nutrients including vitamin E, potassium, and iron. Applying this liquid directly to the roots can help prevent hair breakage and accelerate hair growth. The antibacterial properties in the milk can also protect the scalp, as it's a natural conditioner for both hair and skin. It’s recommended that you leave the treatment in overnight.

2. Amla, Indian gooseberry

This fruit is well known for its high levels of vitamins. It's also packed with antioxidants, which can prevent premature graying of the hair. The essential fatty acids in this fruit can also keep hair follicles strong. Apply a paste of dried amla with lime juice to the scalp to nourish your locks and make your hair extra lustrous. To make the paste mix 2 teaspoons of lime juice with 2 teaspoons of dried amla powder.

3. Scalp massage 

Regularly treating your head to a massage is effective in keeping your hair healthy. A massage stimulates blood flow to the scalp and promotes hair growth. Combining a head massage with lukewarm oil can prevent hair loss and dandruff too.
There are a number of oils to try: coconut, jojoba, mustard, almond, lavender, olive, or sesame oil - all full of added nutrients. Jojoba oil is especially recommended because it replaces sebum (an oily secretion from the sevaceous glands) in the scalp

4. Neem, Indian lilac

Neem oil is extracted from the fruit of the Indian lilac tree. This treatment is effective because the tree is rich in antioxidants which counter free radicals. Neem is regenerative and contains fatty acids like linoleic, oleic, and stearic acids, which also condition the scalp and hair.
Neem is an astringent and can also treat itching, dandruff and head lice without chemicals. Neem oil has a bitter smell so it’s recommended that you mix it with an aromatic essential oil like lavender, tea tree or orange. You can massage this mixture into your scalp and apply it to your locks too.

5. Aloe vera

Aloe Vera is another good remedy for hair loss. Applying pure aloe gel directly to the scalp helps balance the pH level. The plant extract is rich in vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and enzymes. The aloe strengthens hair elasticity and can soften and moisturize your hair, acting as a natural conditioner. Dissolving a small amount of salt into the gel can also help. The salt penetrates through deeper skin layers and can prevent hair from falling out unnecessarily.

6. Egg white and curd

The combination of egg white and curd creates a super hair treatment that promotes hair growth. Eggs are rich in sulfur, selenium, iodine, phosphorus, iron and zinc. Curd has many nutrients and is anti-fungal. This mixture makes an excellent conditioner, making your hair look shiny and at the same time, it effectively fights dandruff and hair loss. Combine the ingredients and apply the mask to your scalp and hair.

7. Henna

While most people know henna as a natural hair dye, it is also an excellent way to strengthen and condition your hair. More importantly henna controls excessive hair loss. When applied to the hair and scalp it creates a protective coat over the hair shafts and its nutrients repair the hair cuticles, making the strands thick and strong.

To prevent hair loss, combine dried henna leaves or powdered henna with mustard oil and a teaspoon of lemon juice. Massage this oil mix into your scalp. Leave it to rest for 30 minutes and rinse your hair after.  

8. Hibiscus

This vibrant flower has many rejuvenating properties for hair. It's an old Indian method of maintaining a thick mane of hair. Because of its rich vitamin C and amino acid content, this flower works to prevent premature graying. It also nourishes the hair and treats dandruff. When you combine the crushed leaves of the flowers with coconut or sesame oil and apply this paste to your scalp regularly, it can help with hair loss. It’s best to leave the paste in your hair for several hours and then rinse.

Habits to avoid:

Don’t comb or rub your hair while wet

Wet hair is more fragile because the protective layer has been stripped. Towel drying or combing your hair when wet can cause the hair to snap and break. Untangle your hair before you wet it and blot your hair with a towel.

Don’t overheat your hair

Excess use of your hair dryer or straightening iron can dry out your hair shafts, leading to dull, and brittle hair. The heat can damage the proteins and the dryness also strips your hair of natural moisture, resulting in dry cuticles, which will snap off. It's recommended you limit this activity to 2 to 3 times a week.

Don’t wash your hair with hot water

Boiling hot water can weaken your hair follicles and cause hair to fall out. Having a steaming hot shower frequently can strip away the protective oils and this can cause your scalp pores to overproduce oil, which can damage the hair at the root, resulting in excessive shedding. Opt for washing your hair with lukewarm to warm water, and rinsing with cooler temperatures, to lock in moisture.
