Natural Hair Care Tips: Home Remedies For Hair Growth
The battle between traditional medicine and modern western medicine exists even in the field of hair loss treatments. While researchers try to find ways to remedy the problem with a drug or a cocktail of chemical compounds, traditional hair loss remedies have been around for thousands of years. If you’re tired of popping pills and applying topical remedies to your bald spots, maybe it’s time to visit your old-fashioned medicine cabinet.
Why try?
In general, traditional medical approaches are safer than taking pills or using synthetic chemical-filled gels or patches. Traditional remedies usually involve the use of natural elements and foods found around us.
The same principle applies to traditional Chinese medicine; Herbs, roots, and leaves are prepared in measured amounts to remedy common ailments. Economically it is also more practical to use natural ingredients because they cost less and you can prepare infusions and creams from the comfort of your home, at your leisure.
Oil
You have heard the drill; oil your hair to keep it supple and shiny. To some extent, safe oils like mineral oil and plant essential oils like lavender and walnut are effective in keeping hair healthy. If you have extremely dry hair, chances are your sebum production has already been affected. Sebum is the natural oily secretion that is responsible for keeping hair shiny. If you are exposed to immense levels of smoke and toxins on a daily basis, your sebum production may already have been weakened.
In such a case, oils are a natural remedy. Dry hair is also brittle hair; If you ignore dry hair long enough, you’ll be rewarded with easy breakage and unattractive, unmanageable hair. Don’t worry; you don’t have to look far for oils you can use. You can use any of the following to strengthen and keep your hair looking younger:
– Beaver oil
– Almonds oil
– Coconut oil
– Olive oil
– Thyme essential oil
– Rosemary essential oil
– Lavender essential oil
– Cedarwood essential oil
-Jojoba oil
– Grape seed oil
more vitamins please
Keeping the hair on the head can be simpler than we previously thought. If you know you’re not getting enough vitamins from your diet, there’s no point in changing your diet now.
You can, but the vitamins would take longer to reach your diseased scalp. Instead, change your diet while taking vitamin supplements. Common multivitamin formulations with tocopherol, biotin, thiamine, ascorbic acid, and the like are sufficient to maintain a healthy scalp and hair.
Don’t go to extremes either. It is not only useless, but dangerous, to take multiple vitamin pills a day. The body can only make use of a certain amount of a vitamin; the rest is discarded (through urination and bowel movements).
While some vitamins are kept in the body for future use, it is still recommended that you take only the recommended RDA for all types of vitamins. This would avoid unnecessary problems associated with an overabundance of vitamins.
