Stop Hair Loss

May 12, 2009


Hair fall is a common phenomenon, though moderate hair loss is considered normal. Excessive loss of hair can be serious and dangerous. So how do you differentiate between normal hair loss and excessive hair loss? If you loose around 50 to 60 strands a day, it is normal. Your hair might just need some extra care. But if you loose around 60 to 120 strands, then it is alarming. In such situation, you need to consult a doctor or a trichology or any other hair care professional.

Severe hair loss requires expert attention. Home remedies cease to work when hair loss is severe. However, it is advisable to prevent hair fall instead of curing it. If you can contain hair loss in the first stage, you are less likely to face severe hair loss problems.

Here, we share some home remedies to stop hair loss:

1) Henna paste – This is a time tested remedy, it has been used since ages and is known for adding a natural colour to your hair. Apart from colour, it also nourishes the hair and prevents hair loss. When henna is mixed with other herbs like amla, shikakai and reetha, it makes the perfect combination for hair loss prevention. To make this paste, soak henna powder and the above mentioned three herbs in an iron container. Allow the paste to develop in the container overnight, do not use plain water to make the paste. Boil tea and strain, use this water for soaking. Before applying this paste on your hair and scalp, add 2 to 3 spoons of coconut oil. This will prevent your hair from drying out.

2) Amla and lemon juice - This is an excellent treatment for preventing hair loss. Just squeeze a lemon and apply the juice on your scalp, it will also keep all bacterial or fungal infections at bay. You can leave it for 20 minutes on your hair and it will not only add shine to your mane, it will also cure dandruff. Amla or Indian gooseberry juice is a miracle juice. It instantly curbs hair fall and makes your hair soft and smooth.
