Home Remedies to Stop Hair Fall

Hair fall is a common problem. Although it is a natural phenomenon, it may result in baldness or thinning hair if the rate of hair fall is more than the emergence of new hairs, i.e., hair loss is replaced by new hair that grow from the same follicle. Some of the effective and easy home remedies to stop hair fall are as follows:

1. Onion Juice:

Onion has antibacterial properties that help prevent scalp infections. It also contains sulfur that improves blood flow towards hair follicles. Thus, it controls hair loss and promotes hair growth.

How to use:

Take a few onions and grind them. After grinding squeeze out the juice and apply it to your scalp with the help of a cotton ball. Leave it for around half an hour and then wash it off with normal water and a mild shampoo. Do it at least twice a week.

2. Amla (Indian Gooseberry):

Amla is rich in vitamin C that helps strengthen hair follicles. It also has anti-inflammatory and exfoliating properties that help promote hair growth and maintain a healthy scalp.

How to use:

Take 4-5 amla and grind them. Extract the amla juice and mix it with an equal quantity of freshly squeezed lime juice. Apply this mixture to your scalp and leave it for around 20 minutes then rinse it off with Luke warm water. If you are not comfortable with extracting amla juice, you can use amla powder and lime juice to make the paste.

Greek Yogurt is a natural hair conditioner and also contains vitamins B5 and proteins that are beneficial for hair growth. Honey has antibacterial properties that help maintain scalp health.
