Regrowing your hair isn’t something that most would consider easy. If you get the over the counter drugs then you have to apply them twice a day and they only work as long as you’re using them.
Meanwhile, hair treatment centers and prescription stuff only works in a small percentage of the people that use them.
Luckily there are some natural remedies that can slow down, or even stop your hair loss. Here are a couple that I’ve seen improvement with:
Nettle Root
Nettle root is the root of stinging nettle, a plant that likes to grow near water than hurts a lot when you touch the leaves. While the top of the plant is unpleasant, taking supplements made from the root can actually stop hair loss, and in some cases, even regrow hair!
It works by inhibiting the production of DHT, a product of testosterone which accumulates in your scalp and effectively chokes out your hair follicles. I got mine from Now Foods and, while it took a couple of weeks to kick in, it’s brought my hair loss to almost zero. This one, I think, is the most effective treatment, but in case you want other options…
Tea Tree Oil Massage
A scalp massage is the nicest feeling way to prevent hair loss naturally. Hair falls out because it isn’t getting the nutrients it needs, which come from the blood going through your scalp.
By massaging your scalp, you stimulate blood flow, which can deliver all the food that your hair needs to grow and be happy.
By adding tea tree oil, a natural astringent, to the mix, you can help stimulate even more blood flow up there. Good n Natural makes a good one that’s 100% pure and doesn’t contain any alcohol or any nasty stuff that will harm your skin or hair. All you have to do is massage the oil into the thinning spot, let it sit for an hour, and rinse it out. It feels tingly and makes you smell good, too.
Meditation
Meditation is a great way to prevent hair loss. A lot of the time people lose hair because of stress, so any way to reduce the amount of tension in your life will help with holding on to your gorgeous locks.
Spending 15 or 20 minutes every day to sit down and meditate is a great way to reduce the amount of stress in your life, which will have positive effects not only on your thinning hair, but for the rest of your body as well.
Use the Natural Way
Don’t go to a hair therapy center or get over the counter solutions to put on your head. Half the time they either don’t work, or they work poorly. By going after the root cause, stress, hormonal imbalance, or anything else with natural remedies will be more effective and better for you.
Plus, the natural supplements and massages are a lot cheaper than Rogaine! Give it a shot and you’ll see more hair on your head within a couple of weeks.
