How to Prepare Herbal Remedies for Hair Loss

Hair fall is not a new thing in human society, but recently it has become too common in women. With an understanding that beautiful hair is an essence of the beauty of women, this article shows you how to treat hair loss naturally — that is, with the use of herbs.

The following are hair-friendly herbs for the treatment of hair loss and how to prepare them as a hair loss remedy:

1.   Onion and honey. With a quarter of an onion, slice it into small cubes and rub on the balding area of the scalp. Leave on until some redness occurs. Next, rub in some honey. Adherents to this method say it will help boost circulation in your scalp and may facilitate hair growth.

2.   Fenugreek. Soak fenugreek in a deep pot of water throughout the night. Massage the liquid onto the scalp and wrap with a cloth for three hours. Repeat every day for one month.

3.   Apple cider vinegar and sage tea. Using apple cider vinegar and sage tea is also another method of treating hair loss. Make a mixture of sage tea and apple cider vinegar and wash your hair with it. You can also make another shampoo with aloe vera, coconut milk and a little wheat germ oil. Rinsing your hair with this mixture is also a good method of treating hair loss.

4.   Coconut oil and amla.  In a half cup of coconut oil, add some dry pieces of Indian gooseberry (amla). Boil the mixture for some time and then let it cool. Apply it to the scalp. This is very useful in preventing hair loss.

5.   Lemongrass. This herb helps stabilize oil production in the scalp. It also provides nourishment to the hair. You can use lemongrass oil for massage as well.

6.   Indian gooseberry (amla). Amla is regularly used by Indians to treat hair loss problems. It is a wonderful hair tonic. It is used in oil as well as shampoo and conditioners. If you can lay your hands on Indian gooseberry, extract its juice and mix it in same quantities with lime juice. Use this mixture to wash your hair.

The above-mentioned herbs not only contain properties that can treat hair loss, but are also very useful for scalp massage and aromatherapy. Aside from those herbs, the use of essential oils from bay, cedarwood, grapefruit, jojoba, lavender, lemon, rosemary or Roman chamomile are also commonly used to detoxify the scalp and to help in the reversal of hair loss. Most of these oils work best when mixed together with carrier oils. To increase the blood circulation, a regular massage must be done with the essential oils. The oils strengthen the hair follicles and regenerate hair growth.
