How to Treat a Receding Hairline for Women

A receding hairline is generally associated with aging men, but it can affect women as well, though it is less common. Causes for a receding hairline in women include pregnancy, hormonal changes or imbalance, genetic factors, overprocessing treatments like dyeing and perming and rapid weight loss in a short period of time. Treatments for a receding hairline in women range from natural herbal remedies to hair-strengthening shampoos.

Instructions

Natural Remedy

• 1

  Combine 10 drops each of rosemary and sage essential oils in a glass jar or bottle. Seal the jar, and shake it lightly to combine the oils. Rosemary and sage are natural herbs known for their ability to promote hair growth, and strengthen the hair shaft.

• 2

  Allow the essential oils to mellow in the jar for about 2 to 3 days. This will enhance the potency of the essential oils.

• 3

  Apply a few drops of the sage/rosemary mixture onto your receding hairline, and massage into your scalp. Leave mixture on overnight, and rinse it off in the morning. Use this treatment everyday for best results.

Hair Strengthening Shampoos and Conditioners

• 4

  Use a hair strengthening, anti-hairfall shampoo and conditioner a few times a week. Try Nature's Gate Biotin Shampoo specifically formulated for weak, thinning hair. Strengthening haircare products nourish the hair roots, promote new hair growth and fortify the hair shaft to keep it from weakening.

• 5

  Wash your hair with the fortifying shampoo at least 3 times a week. Massage the shampoo deeply into your scalp, and leave it on for a few minutes before rinsing off.

• 6

  Wring out excess water from your hair after shampooing. Apply a quarter-sized amount of conditioner from roots to tips. Allow it to absorb into your hair for at least 3 to 5 minutes, then rinse it out. Try Jason Hair Strengthening Conditioner Lavender.
