Home Remedies For Hair Fall
Now that you know the various causes of hair fall, lets go ahead and check out the home remedies that can treat the condition.
Coconut Milk
Aloe Vera
Neem (Indian Lilac)
1. Coconut Milk:
What You Need
Coconut milk, 1 cup
What You Need To Do
Apply the coconut milk to your scalp using a hair dye brush. Then cover your head with a towel and leave it undisturbed for about 20 minutes. You can ideally prepare coconut milk at home by grinding the grated coconut and squeezing its milk.
After that, remove the towel and rinse your hair with cold water.
You can follow with a shampoo.
When You Need To Do This
In the morning, before taking bath. You can follow this process once every week.
Why This Works
Coconut milk is rich in vitamin E and fats, which help moisturize the hair and keep it healthy. The milk is rich in potassium (1), another vital ingredient for hair growth. It also has antibacterial properties that protect the hair from damage.
2. Aloe Vera:
What You Need
A leaf (or even a stalk) of the Aloe Vera plant
What You Need To Do
This is the traditional way of using Aloe Vera for treating hair growth. Extract the pulp content from the leaf or stalk and rub into your hair.
Ensure your hair is already washed before you do this.
Massage the pulp into your scalp in circular motions.
Leave it undisturbed for about 15 minutes and then rinse with cold water.
When You Need To Do This
Repeat the process thrice a week, ideally in the morning after you have taken a head bath.
Why This Works
Aloe Vera plays a crucial role in balancing the pH levels of the scalp and hair. It penetrates the scalp and hair, thereby promoting hair growth.
Caution
The yellow-colored sap of the Aloe Vera plant contains toxins, and can irritate the skin if you are latex-intolerant. You can ideally boil the plant (which converts the toxins to natural salicylic acid, which is harmless to the skin) before extracting the pulp content.
3. Neem (Indian Lilac):
What You Need
Dry neem leaves, about 10 12
A vessel containing water
What You Need To Do
Boil the neem leaves in the water till the water level comes down to half its quantity.
Wait for the mixture to cool.
Rinse your hair with this mixture.
When You Need To Do This
You can use this remedy as a last rinse after shampooing your hair. It can ideally be done once every week.
Why This Works
Neem has excellent antibacterial properties that help you get rid of dandruff. This ensures the scalp is healthy, and promotes hair growth . It also stimulates blood flow to the skin, thereby nourishing the hair roots.
Neem is even found to eliminate head lice and nits.
Caution
Using neem for hair (especially in the case of dandruff) can cause your eyes to burn. So, be careful while washing off the neem water and ensure it doesnt get into your eyes.
