I’d say that we have plenty of reasons to be glad that we are women rather than man and the fact that hair loss is not among our chief concerns is just one of the reasons. While men go bald quite often and there are very few things they can do to prevent hair loss, the issue is every bit as annoying for women.

Sadly, if we do nothing about it and hope that the problem will get fixed without our intervention, we will witness in disbelief how hair loss becomes irreversible.

It is always better and easier to prevent a problem than to deal with the aftermath, so as soon as you realize that you’re losing a lot of hair, reversing the trend should become your top priority.



Causes:

There are several reasons for why women start losing their hair and at the top of the list is stress, an elusive and insidious factor. Unfortunately, there is very little we can do about it and those who live busy lives with diverse activities and plenty of deadlines can only hope to alleviate the stress.

The good news is that poor diet which is also a cause of hair loss can be solved relatively easy and the same can be said about the excessive use of harmful chemicals. Just pay attention to what kind of shampoo and conditioner you are using, because there is a good chance to harm your hair in the process.



Reasons for Hair Loss:

  • Hereditary conditions
  • Stress
  • Medical conditions such as anemia and autoimmune diseases and thyroid disorders
  • Cancer
  • Scalp infections
  • Skin conditions like psoriasis, dermatitis
  • Pregnancy
  • Certain hairstyles which causes traction on the hair
  • Hair-pulling disorder
  • Menopause
  • Medications



① Wash and Massage with Cold water

One of the most effective remedies for hair loss is giving your scalp a massage after washing your hair with cold water till the scalp tingles. This activates the oil gland and pumps the blood circulation of your scalp making the hair grow healthy.



② Onion Juice:

Onions are rich sources of many nutrients such as vitamin C, Vitamin B6, calcium, magnesium, Potassium, germanium and most importantly Sulphur. Onions cleanse your scalp making it free from dirt and other microbial infections. Onions increase blood circulation in your head boosting hair growth activity at that spot.

Here are few Onion mask remedies that will revive and restore your hair. You will see results from the first use, but your hair is expected to grow to about 2 inches with a one-month treatment.

Mask 1:

1/4 onion
3 cloves garlic
1/4 serrano pepper
1/8 C Apple Cider Vinegar
1/8 C water

Application: Blend all ingredients in the blender, then strain. Apply to scalp daily for at least 20 minutes, then rinse well.

Mask 2:

1 medium onion
1 tbsp honey

Tips to using the onion mask:

  • Massage the scalp for at least one minute, to allow blood circulation.
  • Wash your hair with vinegar solution to get rid of the onion smell. ( 1 spoon of apple cider vinegar or normal vinegar in a litter of water). Vinegar promotes blood circulation in small capillaries that irrigate the skin.
