Remedies to Hair Fall, I have tried and tested.

Hair fall is everyone’s nightmare and its effects tend to creep up and make us feel low. I have suffered from this too, and fortunately, there are plenty of remedies – DIY and store-bought, that have helped me overcome this stressful phase. Here are some steps that helped me to get stronger, luscious locks.

1. Aloe Vera Pulp and Coconut Oil Mask:

This emulsification of aloe vera and coconut oil is a wonder for all hair problems. Aloe vera has similar composites to those of keratin, that coax damaged hair cells to rejuvenate, gain elasticity and prevent breakage. Coconut oil stimulates hair growth and is a natural conditioner.

2. Hot Oil Massage:

This age-old and easy home remedy provides remarkable results. Massaging hot oil into your scalp increases blood flow, hair growth,  strength and elasticity, and prevents hair fall. And there are many options if you are less inclined to using popular coconut oil. For instance, vitamin E in almond oil is great to make your locks strong and shiny and olive oil is known to repair and nourish every strand of damaged hair. 

3. Hair Masks: L’Oréal Paris Deep Nourishing Creambath Hair Spa

Hair fall can often be predicted by deteriorating finer and lifeless tresses. The L’Oréal Paris Deep Nourishing Creambath Hair Spa comes highly recommended for dry and damaged hair. A generous smear of this water lily induced mask once a week produced visibly nourished, shinier and healthier results for my hair.

4. Back to Basics: Maria Nila Head & Hair Heal Shampoo and Conditioner

When my problem with hair fall became almost uncontrollable, I turned to this champion duo of shampoo and conditioner. In addition to healthy ingredients like aloe vera and vitamin E, it also contains oleanolic acid, a botanical extract which fights free radicals that kill growth cells and stimulates healthy growth.

5. Moroccanoil Treatment:

This product has been on the market for years and is a favourite of hairdressers, stylists, and advisers. The key ingredient, argan oil conditions the scalp for healthier hair growth, reduces breakage by giving elasticity and strength to hair strands and reduces frizz for more manageable and soft hair.

6. Sugar Bear Gummies:

I was equally skeptical and intrigued by these vitamin supplements. But the chewy, sweet, berry flavoured, candy-like vitamin gummies are a delight to eat and a boost for hair growth. The main ingredients include biotin, folic acid and Vitamin D that help to thicken hair, grow healthier hair cells and create new follicles, respectively.

7. A Healthier Lifestyle:

Stating quite the obvious, but I realised that there is no product or treatment in the world – natural or otherwise, that could substitute for a well-balanced diet including my daily five, minimum intake of two liters of water, and eight hours of good sleep, because they equally affect hair as they do other vital organs of the body. I’ve also learned that I do not need to style or put my hair through treatments as often as I have in the past. And even if I do, I always make sure to use treatment protection to curb the damage as much as possible.

My hair feels stronger and shinier and definitely less damaged and lifeless. But everyone has different experiences, so please feel free to share your remedies so we can all learn from each other.
