Herbal Tips for Growing Hair

Growing hair can be a challenge. There are just as many natural herbal methods for growing hair as there are pharmaceutical options. The challenge is in knowing which combination of herbal remedies will work for a specific case or goal of hair growth. While one remedy may effectively grow hair for one person, the same remedy might not grow hair for another person.

Topical Use of Herbs

• Use herbs directly in the scalp and hair follicles to achieve the best scalp and follicle penetration and maximum growth benefits of herbs such as saw palmetto, rosemary oil and stinging nettle root. Topical herbal applications can be found in the form of styling aids such as gel, cream rinse, conditioner, mousse and hairspray. Massage the topical vitamin styling aid into the hair as you wash and style the hair.

Oral Use of Herbs

• Select pure herbal and vitamin supplements for hair growth , such as saw palmetto, cayenne pepper, vitamin E, Biotin and MSM. Many of these supplements are available in department stores and pharmacies in the form of capsules, powders and vitamin supplement beverages.

Experimenting

• Experiment with various combinations of herbs and vitamins as you begin an herbal hair-growth treatment. Pay attention to which combination seems to work most effectively for delivering the desired results of hair growth.
