Natural Tips to prevent Hair Loss

Most people think about preventing hair loss only after they have lost a lot of it. But if you start early (like when you still have a head full of hair) it works out a lot easier both emotionally and financially. In fact, the truth is - preventing hair loss is a simpler process than treating hair loss. Plainly put, it all boils down to some sensible hair care - if you take care to keep the hair you’ve got, you will be blessed with better looks and healthier hair. So here are a few things you can do to prevent your hair from falling.

1.Fenugreek

Fenugreek, also known as methi, is highly effective in treating hair loss. Fenugreek seeds contain hormone antecedents that enhance hair growth and help rebuild hair follicles. They also contain proteins and nicotinic acid that stimulate hair growth.

Soak one cup of fenugreek seeds in water overnight.
In the morning, grind them to make a paste.
Apply the paste to your hair and cover with a shower cap. After about 40 minutes, rinse your hair.
Follow this remedy every morning for a month.

2.Aloe Vera for hair loss

Nowadays, excessive hair loss has become very common due to heavy pollution in the environment. You can use Aloe Vera as another effective home remedy for hair loss and quick hair growth. Usage of Aloe Vera can effectively reduce scalp problems like, flaking and itching. The mildly alkaline property of Aloe Vera helps in restoring the natural pH level of the scalp which promotes hair growth. Aloe Vera gel can be effective even for fighting dandruff. Take an Aloe Vera leaf, collect the pulp and apply it to the scalp and hairs. Leave it on for 45 minutes to an hour and wash off the hair with plenty of normal water. Follow this treatment for 3 – 4 times a week for better results

3.Onion Juice

Onion juice helps treat hair loss due to its high sulfur content, which helps improve blood circulation to the hair follicles, regenerate hair follicles and reduce inflammation.

The antibacterial properties in onion juice also help kill germs and parasites, and treat scalp infections that can cause hair loss.

In a 2002 study published in the Journal of Dermatology, almost 74 percent of the study participants who applied onion juice on the scalp experienced significant hair regrowth.

Extract the juice of one onion by grating it and then strain it. Apply the juice directly onto the scalp. Leave it on for about 30 minutes, and then wash it off. Finally, shampoo your hair.
Mix together three tablespoons of onion juice and two tablespoons of aloe vera gel. You can also add one tablespoon of olive oil. Apply this mixture onto your scalp and leave it on for at least 30 minutes before rinsing it off and shampooing your hair.

4.Hot oil massage to reduce hair fall

Lack of nutrition to the hairs is often a cause of excessive hair fall and hence hot oil massage can be very effective to control hair loss. Massage the scalp daily at least for few minutes with lukewarm oil. You can use any oil that is rich in Vitamin E.  Coconut oil, almond oil, mustard oil, olive oil and jojoba oil are the best options at your hand. If you are experiencing hair loss due to dandruff, jojoba oil can be particularly effective.You can also opt for a mixture of all the oils to get the best results. Heat the oil lightly in an iron or steel container and massage your scalp and hairs with the oil. To get complete benefits of hot oil massage it is best if you can leave the oil on your hairs overnight and then wash off in the morning, otherwise shampoo the hair after 1 hour.

5.Beetroot

Beetroot juice contains carbohydrates, protein, potassium, phosphorus, calcium and vitamins B and C. All these nutrients are essential for healthy hair growth.

Include fresh beetroot juice in your diet. In addition to that, spinach juice, alfalfa juice, lettuce juice, or carrot juice will help keep your hair healthy.
Alternatively, grind a few beetroot leaves (boiled in water) along with henna and apply the paste on your scalp. Leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes before rinsing it out. Repeat several times a week.
