Instructions

• 1

  Massage the scalp vigorously until it begins to warm and tingle. This activates the sebaceous glands and stimulates blood flow to the scalp. Do this as either a preventative or a remedy for hair loss.

• 2

  Boil 1 cup of mustard oil, and then slowly add 4 tbsp. of henna leaves. When the henna burns, strain the oil through a cloth and store in a glass jar. Massaging this oil into the scalp once every two or three days encourages hair growth.

• 3

  Rub onion slices on the scalp until the balding area begins to turn red. Apply honey afterward to soothe and stimulate the scalp. Perform this method twice daily, in the morning and at night to treat hair loss naturally.

  Know that margosa can be made into a concoction to halt hair loss, stabilize color, stimulate growth, and kill parasites. It is made by simmering 1 tbsp. of margosa leaves in 1 cup of water for three to five minutes. Keep the lid covered during the simmering. Strain the remaining liquid into a cup or bowl and drink. Honey may be added to help flavor. This treatment may be used daily to treat hair loss naturally.

  Grind lime and black pepper seeds into a paste and apply to bald patches on the scalp. This will cause mild irritation, which increases blood flow to the hairless portions of scalp. Increased blood flow brings more vitamins and minerals to the hair follicles, promoting their growth. Apply twice daily for several weeks.
