Many people suffer from hair fall due to stress, environmental factors, genetics, nutritional deficiencies, aging, etc. It is normal hair fall if you’re losing about 100 to 150 hair strands. If you are losing more than this, it’s excessive hair fall. Some hair loss products are quite pricey. Thankfully, there are many great home remedies for hair fall control. In this blog, let’s discuss the best natural remedies for hair loss that you can try at home.

  1. Coconut milk:

    Coconut milk is extracted from grated coconut. It includes a high level of magnesium which aids well in improving the hair strands, eliminating hair breakage, and encouraging thicker hair. In addition, the antiviral, antifungal, antibacterial agents present in it might help fight against infection and prevent hair fall. It additionally contains healthy fat that helps moisturize, nourish dry hair strands, and strengthens hair elasticity.

    Break a whole fresh or dried coconut and peel off its brown skin. Grind the grated coconut with enough water to make a liquid. Put this liquid into a bag or cloth. Squeeze it to extract the coconut milk. Heat up this milk for 5 minutes. Wait for it to become cool, store in a bottle and freeze it for a night. Before using it, heat the coconut milk until it is slightly warm. Apply it to your scalp and hair thoroughly. Do a head massage for about 5 minutes. Leave it on for 30 to 45 minutes. Rinse your hair with shampoo and a hair conditioner. Repeat the process twice a week.

  2. Coconut oil:

    Coconut oil is rich in antioxidants, vitamin E, vitamin K, and iron. This can aid in protecting the hair from harmful environmental impacts. This heightens hair regrowth. Pour some coconut oil into your hands. Apply it directly to your scalp and hair. Gently massage all over the scalp for at least five minutes. Apply the coconut oil all along the hair shaft. Cover your hair using a shower cap or towel. Leave it for 30 minutes or longer post which you can wash your hair thoroughly with shampoo to remove oil. Repeat once or twice a week.

     

  3. Aloe vera:

    It is one of the most excellent natural remedies for hair loss and boosting hair regrowth. Its anti-bacterial properties promote the prevention of fungal infection, clearance of excess oil and clogged pores on the scalp, rejuvenation of hair follicles, and thus control hair thinning.

    Cut off a fresh leaf from an aloe vera plant. Wash the aloe vera leaf thoroughly. Slit it to draw out the gel inside. Apply this gel directly to your scalp. Leave it for an hour before rinsing your hair with a mild shampoo. Repeat the process two to three times a week for best results.

Home remedies for hair fall

  1. Neem:

    Indians use different parts of the neem for medication and hair treatment. The neem leaves might treat premature graying, head lice, itch, and inflammation on the scalp. This leads to hair fall control and stimulation of hair regrowth. Warm the neem oil before using. Pour 2-3 drops of warm neem oil onto your palm. Apply this to your scalp and hair. Massage thoroughly for 5 minutes. Use a shower cap to cover your hair for an hour. Remove the shower cap and wash your hair with lukewarm water. Repeat twice a week.

     

  2. Onion juice:

    Onion has been a successful hair fall treatment for years. (Source: Research Gate) It is full of sulfur and quercetin which can be effective in strengthening hair regrowth. The presence of sulfur in onions makes your hair elastic, enhances blood circulation, and brings nutrients to the scalp. Quercetin is a powerful antioxidant and is anti-inflammatory in nature which can protect our hair from harmful radicals, air pollution, and toxins. Furthermore, the biotin, manganese, vitamin C, phosphorus, folic acids, and copper in onion are very advantageous for healthy hair. A study showed that 84% of participants who used onion juice experienced hair regrowth on the bald areas within 6 weeks. (Source: NCBI) Thus, it acts as one of the most effective home remedies for hair fall.

    Peel off the skin of the fresh onion and wash the onion with water. Chop it into small slices. Grind these onion slices to make a paste. Put this onion paste into a cloth. Squeeze to collect fresh onion juice. Apply this onion juice evenly all over your scalp and hair. Massage gently for 5 minutes. Use a shower cap to cover your hair. Rinse off with mild shampoo after 30 minutes. Repeat this twice a week.
