Natural Herbs to Treat Hair Loss

source
I often talk about how important it is to eat organic or use natural remedies to fight cancer and disease but I often fail to mention how to treat more common problems like hair loss. Rather than using toxic chemicals that have a laundry list of side effects try to treat this common problem a much safer and natural way first!

Here are 5 simple ways to try to fight hair loss:

Aloe Vera

• The plant is a great remedy for people suffering from hair loss as it not only treats and soothes damaged scalp to promote hair growth, it also cleans up sebum — an oil that prevents hair from coming back. To use aloe vera, massage the gel directly along the scalp or use a natural aloe vera-based shampoo.

Licorice Root

• The spice opens up the pores and strengthens the hair follicles, allowing hair to grow. It also treats dry, irritated scalp, creating a conducive environment for growing hair. Applying it directly to the scalp or drinking it as tea can both lead to healthy hair growth.

Jojoba Oil

• Using jojoba oil moisturizes the scalp’s hair follicles, which helps create healthy and strong hair. For optimal results, massage the oil into the roots and wash out after 10 to 15 minutes.

Onion juice

• A study in the Journal of Dermatology indicated that onion juice can support hair growth, with most of its participants reporting a significant improvement in hair growth after applying onion juice on their scalp. To use it yourself, massage onion juice on your scalp and let it sit for 15 minutes before rinsing.

Garlic

• The benefits of garlic aren’t just limited to inside the body — a topical application of blended garlic cloves on balding spots can not only improve hair growth but also strengthen hair exposed to it.

Remember to use organic or natural products when trying these techniques
