Home Remedies For Hair Growth: 4 Tips You Can Use Today
We live in a society that has bombarded us with the idea that any unwanted medical condition needs to be seen by a doctor and needs a chemical to treat it. This is especially true with unwanted hair loss. Many chemical hair loss products are out there, but many all natural home remedies for hair growth exist that produce equal, if not better hair-growth effects. These all natural products are also much less expensive, and do not require embarrassing doctor’s visits.
What is one of the most effective home remedies for hair growth?
One of the best home remedies for hair growth is also one of the simplest. Simply increase your consumption of Biotin, which is a vitamin in the B vitamin family. This vitamin has been proven to increase overall hair health for everyone. Few know that biotin deficiency is actually a very common cause of hair loss. This vitamin is available at any drug store or health food store. The recommended dosage of Biotin to help with hair loss is 5000mcg to 7500mcg per day. This dosage should preferably be split and half of it taken twice a day. This will help to keep a steady stream of biotin in your system.
Herbal Saw Palmetto tablets are one of the most popular natural remedies to promote healthy hair. Saw palmetto has often been called “nature’s propecia”, because it works by using a similar effect. Propecia is a common chemical treatment for hair loss. Saw palmetto is most effective on androgenic alopecia, which is the technical name for male- and female-pattern baldness. This herbal remedy for baldness works by inhibiting the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone, or DHT, in the scalp. Excess DHT in the scalp is commonly believed to be what causes many cases of hair loss.
Can hair oil be one of simplest home remedies for hair growth?
Grape seed oil offers a great topical treatment to maintain healthy hair and is another one of the simple yet effective home remedies for hair growth. It has been said that massaging a bit of this oil into the scalp for five minutes before bed can stimulate hair growth. This oil should not be washed off after the massage, but left on all night. Use just a bit, and it will not lead to a greasy pillow. The scalp should absorb most of it. This has not been clinically proven to work, but there are many anecdotal reports of hair regrowth after the grape seed oil was used nightly for several months. It is worth a shot to try, for there is no harmful side effects and you at least get a nice scalp massage out of it.
Another oil that can be massaged into the scalp for hair growth is mustard oil. This is one of the home remedies for hair growth used and trusted by many in India. The Indians also believe in rubbing the scalp morning and evening with an onion that has been cut in half. They say that the scalp should be rubbed until it is red. They then follow up with a rub of soothing honey to soothe the irritated scalp. If you are not looking for a sticky head, simply follow up with a soothing moisturizing lotion.
