Home Remedies for Hair Loss in Women

When the balance between hair growth and loss is disturbed, it can cause more hair loss and eventually baldness. Hair is not essential to life; however it is a serious cosmetic concern when it begins to thin and fall out more than usual. Although there are many medical treatments for hair loss, there are also several natural home remedies that have gotten great results.

Amla Oil and Shampoo

• Amla oil, also known as Indian gooseberry oil, is considered a valuable hair tonic for enhancing hair growth and is simple to use. Prepare by boiling dry pieces of amla in coconut oil and apply it on the scalp.

  To prevent hair loss and use as a baldness treatment, make a shampoo by mixing 100 grams of amla, reetha and shikakai. Boil these items in two liters of water. This shampoo should be used for one month. Any of these ingredients can be found online or at your local grocery or pharmacy.

Lettuce and Spinach Juice

• Drink half a liter of mixed lettuce and spinach juice daily to prevent hair loss. Prepare by mixing one bunch of lettuce and spinach in your juicer. When it is pressed, simply stir with a spoon to make sure the flavor is smooth and even.

Alfalfa

• Combine the juice of alfalfa with equal quantities of carrot and lettuce juice to help enrich hair growth. Drink this on a daily basis. Alfalfa juice can also be prepared by using fresh leaves of the plant, though these are more difficult to obtain.

Coconut Oil and Milk

• Apply coconut oil mixed with lime water or lime juice on the scalp daily. If coconut oil cannot be found, coconut milk can also be used.

  Prepare coconut milk by grinding coconut shavings and squeezing them, or simply purchase it at the local grocery store. Massage the coconut milk into the hair roots and over the scalp daily.

Coriander Leaves

• Daily application of the juice of green coriander leaves, also known as cilantro, is also beneficial to hair loss. Juice cilantro by using an efficient juicer that will not only crush the vegetable and press it firmly enough to juice it.

Mustard Oil and Henna Leaves

• Boil 250 milliliters of mustard oil in a tin basin. Gradually drop 60 grams of henna leaves in the boiling oil till they are burnt in the oil. Filter the oil using a cloth and store it. Massage the scalp regularly with the oil to promote healthy growth of hair.

Lime and Pepper Seeds

• Grind together lime and black pepper seeds to make a fine paste. This paste has been found to be one of the most valuable remedies for hair loss. Apply the paste twice a day for a few weeks on the scalp or patches of baldness. Although this paste has a mildly irritant reaction, it helps maintain blood circulation to the affected area and increases hair growth.

Onion and Honey

• Rub the scalp with onion pieces every morning and evening till the area begins to redden. When it has turned red, apply a small amount of honey.

Liquorice

• Apply a paste of liquorice over the bald patches before going to bed. Grind pieces of liquorice in milk and add a pinch of saffron to prepare this fine paste.

Almond Oil

• To stop further hair loss, apply almond oil onto the scalp two to three times a day.

Olive Oil Paste

• Prepare a paste with hot olive oil, honey and one teaspoon of cinnamon powder. Apply this before a bath or shower and leave it on for 15 minutes. Wash it off afterwards.
