Common ingredients in your kitchen that help you grow NEW HAIR

 I have already posted about hair fall before, I posted some tips that could help you prevent hair loss. I'm writing about hair loss once again, but this time, the topic is slightly different.
Let's talk about new hair growth. Is it possible? Yes. With some ingredients that are present in your kitchen.
So, let's see what they are.

What helps you grow new hair?

  • ginger
  • garlic
  • onion 

How?

Let's have a look how these things work.

Ginger:

  
Ginger helps stimulating blood flow to the scalp, that triggers the hair follicles and help in growing new hair. It has fatty acids too, that prevent the thinning of hair. Ginger has antiseptic properties too, that help in removing dandruff from hair (dandruff is also a cause of hair loss and thinning of hair)  Not only this, but ginger also provides shine to the hair. Take a ginger, cut it and rub it on your scalp where ever you want to grow new hair. Let it stay for 15-20 minutes and wash.
 You can also cut a ginger, squeeze it's juice, apply the juice on your scalp for 20 mins, then wash away. You can mix the juice with some oil in equal quantity too. (Ginger will irritate your scalp but that's normal. It's a spice, no?)

Garlic: 


Garlic is another ingredient that promotes hair growth and prevents the thinning of hair. It has sulfur and selenium that not only grows new hair but improves the structure of existing hair as well. People with bald patches don't need to worry, this might work for them as it reduces the size of bald patches.
You can use it the same way as you use ginger. Crush it, squeeze it's juice, apply n on your scalp, leave for 20-30 minutes and wash away. You can mix it with your favorite oil and massage too :)

Onion:

Onion is rich in sulfur just like garlic. It improves blood circulation in the scalp and provides nourishment to the hair . It also prevents premature graying of hair. Another benefit of applying onion is that it has anti bacterial properties that help in eliminating scalp infections that might contribute with hair loss too.
Use it the same way as you use ginger and garlic.

How to eliminate the smell of these ingredients from your hair?

You can't totally eliminate the smell after washing your hair with a mild shampoo though, but here's a tip. Take a lime, squeeze the juice into some water and wash your hair with that water. Helps in reducing the smell of ginger, garlic or onion.

Best way to use these ingredients?

Squeeze out their juices, mix them together, add in some oil and massage.
Leave it on hair for 30 minutes and wash away.
Do this regularly and you'll see results in 2 months. :)

How to get rid of hair fall

Hair fall is a very common problem these days and people suffering from this problem are afraid of losing their hair too early. It's common in both, men and women. This might be due to improper eating habits, unhealthy lifestyle, stress or excessive hair styling; specially using heat to style your hair and using chemicals such as hair dyes on your hair. 

How to get rid of hair fall?

1. Shampoo you hair ONLY when it is needed, twice a week. Too much shampoo causes hair fall due to the presence of chemicals in the shampoos. (You can shampoo more often if your hair gets oily)

2. Cover your hair. Yes, don't let dust get stuck into it.
3. Comb it several times a day to improve blood circulation in that region.
4. Try not to use hair straighteners, blow dryers or curling iron to style your hair.
5. Oiling, Yes this is a must. Use olive oil, coconut oil, castor oil, almond oil for your hair. Hey you can even mix them all up and massage your hair with the mixture. Oil works better when warm. REMEMBER, I'm asking to apply WARM oil, DO NOT APPLY TOO HOT OIL ON YOUR HAIR.
6. A healthy diet is a must for healthy hair. Eat food that contains proteins, iron and oh, vitamin E.
7. Stress is a major cause of hair fall. Try not to worry too much about things. Try to stay as happy as possible because that's not only good for your soul, but for your skin and your hair.
8. Get rid of dandruff. Use anti dandruff treatments or shampoo and get rid of dandruff because it causes hair fall.
9. DON'T COMB HAIR WHEN IT IS WET. Hair is much weaker when it's wet and comes out easily. Wait for it to dry and then comb it.
10. Green Tea is good for your hair. Drink it or apply it on your hair and wash if after 30 minutes. It promotes hair growth too.
11. Exercise. Yes, it improves blood circulation, reduces stress and gives healthy hair, skin and body.
12. Drink water regularly. Drink at least 10-12 glasses of water daily for a healthy skin and healthy hair.

 Follow these steps to get rid of hair fall and get beautiful, healthy hair. :)
take care lovelies xx
