Remedies to prevent hair loss

Almost everyone likes to have thick hair as it adds value to your personality. But if your hair is not dense it can be enhanced with proper treatment.

Rosemary is an important ingredient that promotes hair quality. Mix ½ cup of rosemary to 1 cup of water. Add this solution to half the quantity of your shampoo and cleanse your head. Rosemary helps opening the blocked pores in the scalp and thus gives a chance for hair growth. Tea can be made out of this product and it is useful for the overall blood circulation and supports hair growth also.

You can also clean your hair with slightly cold water to make them shine and glow. If you wish to make them lighter, apply lemon or lemon juice. Make use of egg yolk when the hair is wet. This conditions the hair and prevents hair splits and hair loss.

To make your hair look healthier and shiny mix almond oil and castor oil and massage the scalp gently. Cover it with a towel for sometime so that the scalp absorbs the mixture. Rinse your hair with a mixture of 2-3 teaspoonfuls of honey and water.

Aloe Vera helps to prevent the male pattern baldness in women and when applied to the scalp gives rise to thick and healthy hair. Onion includes high quality sulfur in it and therefore it yields the same benefits like Aloe Vera.

The red pepper popularly known as Capsium releases the hormone to the cells known as histamine. In this way all the necessary nutrients reach the scalp area and thus gives scope for hair growth.

To prepare a quick conditioner mix one egg with 1 tsp vinegar and glycerin. We can also make a honey conditioner by adding 1-2 whipped eggs to honey along with olive oil. When we mix about two eggs to 2 tsp of brandy we get an alcoholic conditioner. All the above-mentioned conditioners need to be gently applied on the scalp and should be cleansed with shampoo and steam.

If you maintain a good quality of your hair then you will obviously create a good impression.

 

Taking Care of Hair

Today, hair treatment is studied as a subject in cosmetic centers and medical schools. A systematic therapy is required to make your hair look nourished. The three main stages involved are cleansing, toning, and conditioning. As there are various types of hair textures such as oily, normal, and dry, treatment should be different for each type.

Treatment for oily hair: Your hair becomes excessively oily due to the trapping of oil in the pores present in the scalp. Therefore stripping off this excessive oil becomes necessary. So you may attempt some of these products:

a) A mixture of amla , shikakai, and triphala which is known as a natural shampoo.
b) Soap nuts i.e. reetha is also a fine material for conditioning hair. You can soak them in water overnight and mash them in the morning. Let the water drain away and add a teaspoon of shikakai with the gel.
c) Massage your hair with a toning lotion once in two weeks. A teaspoon of malt vinegar mixed with salt in a glass of water is a good toning lotion. After applying it on your scalp leave it for about an hour.

Treatment for dry hair: Dry hair is usually thin and rough in structure. It easily gets tangled and has splits at the end of the hair fiber. Therefore an oil massage is required. Some of the therapies that are practiced at home are given below and after applying them they are rinsed with water.
