Problem Hair Loss

Natural Hair Loss Remedies:

“Witch Doctor” May Have Had Some Answers”. In the olden days, healers and medicine men had natural products to regrow hair.  Some of these are still used today with different results. Strictly speaking, all hair loss products could be considered “natural”, as they are made from elements found on Earth. 

For purposes of this discussion, however, a “natural” remedy refers to any ingredient as it is found in nature and not changes in any way before its use.  Some people claim success with these methods and products, so it is worthwhile to look at a few of the most popular.

ESSENTIAL OILS: 

These are concentrated oils from certain plants, such as lavender, soybean, and bay.  They are massaged into the scalp and are purported to assist with circulation and follicle stimulation.

EXERCISE: 

Any kind of exercise increases and improves blood circulation to different parts of the body, including the scalp.  It is believed that increased blood supply to the cells in hair follicles will maintain their health and stimulate hair growth.

HERBAL COCKTAILS: (NOT FOR INGESTION): 

A variety of herbs are recommended, to include Rosemary, Sage, Nettle and Burdock.  The advice is to boil them together, strain off the leaves, and wash the hair with the solution every day.

JOJOBA OIL: 

Widely used in Mexico for hundreds of years, it is massaged on the scalp, and alot of people claim it is very effective in stimulating new hair growth.

LOWERING DHT:

DHT is formed when an enzyme in a man’s body acts upon testosterone and is believed to be responsible for the “closing-up” of hair follicles.  Provillus shows a lot of prospect and may block DHT production and thus shows promise as an aide for male hair loss sufferers.

Homeopathic physicians usually recommend that some of these treatments be used concurrently.  Some have had success, but, as in all cases, different bodies respond differently to any treatment.  Still, they are worth a try before you start losing all your hair.

The trouble with using a natural hair loss remedy is that you have no guarantee as to whether they work or not.

Having said that of course you could say that about all hair loss remedies!  The problem is we all have different bodies and what works for one person does not necessarily work for another.

A simple enough natural hair loss remedy to try is to massage your scalp.  The purpose of this is to stimulate blood flow to your hair follicles in the hope that they will see some regeneration.

Start by rubbing the scalp for no longer then couple of minutes a day; you can try doing it with some coconut or palm oil but, if you don’t want to grease your hair, you can just massage the scalp with your fingertips (not nails) with nothing on them.

Of course, if you are feeling more adventurous you can buy one of those electric massagers available in the department stores.

Natural oils like jojoba and palm oil are also known to be great natural hair growth remedy as a pre-shower treatment. All you have to do is massage it gently into the scalp before a shower, leave it in for about 10 – 15 minutes and then wash it out.

Next, try aromatherapy. Mix six drops of lavender and bay essential oil in a base of four ounces of either almond, soy bean or sesame oil; massage the mixture into the scalp and let your scalp soak in it for at least 20 minutes. The scents and herbs have been known to stimulate hair growth.

Items in your kitchen can also be used to whip up a hair rinse. Boil rosemary and sage along with peach leaf, nettle and burdock for the longer then couple of minutes. Clear the water of the herbs and let it cool down after which you can use it to wash your hair. Rosemary and sage have been known to be very effective as a natural hair growth remedy.

Finally, try henna. This is a traditional Indian herb which is used widely by women in India who have or don’t have hair loss problems. It is known to be an effective natural hair growth remedy and conditioner. Keep in mind henna will color your hair slightly red to brick red.

Listed above are just some natural remedies we have come across but if you are interested in using any of them you must do some research online or at a local natural herb store for full explanations of what would be suitable for your individual case.

But do keep in mind that any natural hair growth remedy may well not stimulate your hair growth, as mentioned earlier there are no guarantees.
