Hair is Our Crowning Glory and it adds charm and beauty to our appearance. But due to strenuous profession, unhealthy lifestyle and poor eating habits, hair fall has become quite common these days. Losing 50-100 hair strands per day is considered as normal. Beyond this count, it may be considered as severe hair fall.
In this hectic life, we hardly get anytime to maintain a beauty regime, so we switch on to variety of over-the-counter hair growth potions that are available in the market, but in most cases, these chemical laden solutions do more harm than good in the long run.
Keeping all this in my mind, I thought of sharing some Natural home Remedies that will help you in preventing hair fall.
# EggEggs have been used as a natural remedy for hair treatment since very long. They are rich source of proteins, minerals, fatty acids and all essential vitamins that helps in nourishing hair. Eggs are one of the most inexpensive and best natural remedy that promotes hair growth and prevent hair fall. EGG WHITES contain over 50% of proteins in the egg which makes hair follicles stronger. EGG YOLK contains lecithin, a fatty protein that helps in reducing frizz and prevent hair loss as well. Biotin in eggs helps to maintain healthier roots.
# OnionI know most of you are skeptical about the use of onion for hair growth. But it is one of the most natural and safe method that prevents hair fall. This might not sound appealing because of its pungent smell but it has been a successful treatment for hair fall for decades. Apart from controlling hair fall, it helps in treating other hair issues as well like dandruff, fungal or yeast infections and premature greying of hair.
Onions have very high content of sulphur( main building block of hair) in them. It improved blood circulation and promotes the production of collagen tissues which are required for hair growth. Sulphur content has anti-bacterial properties which reduces the chances of losing hair due to infections.
# Oil MassageMassage with warm oil increases blood flow to the hair follicles, condition the scalp and enhance the strength of the roots. It reduces the chance of hair strands from becoming brittle, split and broken.
Make sure to massage your whole scalp along with the sides as well. After applying a warm oil to your hair completely , massage your scalp for 15-30 minutes. When you feel the heat generating, cover your head with a shower cap and place a very hot towel on your head. Heat opens the pores and allows the oil to get absorbed more quickly. Remove the towel after 20 minutes and then tie a scarf over the shower cap and go to sleep. Leave the oil overnight for better results. Wash your hair with mild shampoo in the morning. Do make it a habit to massage your hair twice a week.
# Fenugreek SeedsFenugreek is truly a wonder spice, popularly known as methi. It has great capabilities of hair regrowth.
Soak half a cup of fenugreek seeds in warm water overnight. Grind them into a fine paste next morning. Apply it on your scalp and leave it on for 2-3 hours. Then wash it off and no need to use shampoo. Some of the tiny bits of seeds won’t wash off and get stuck to your hair but they will fall off once your hair dries.
# AmlaRemedies to prevent hair fall goes incomplete without the mention of Amla. Amla juice serves lots of benefits. It is loaded with antioxidants and rich source of vitamin C. It stimulates the dormant hair follicles and thereby encourages new hair growth.
Massage Amla juice on your scalp and wait for an hour so that your scalp absorbs all the nutrition. Use it regularly to get the best result.
