Easy, Natural Remedies That Can Actually Help You In Controlling Hair Fall And Thinning Hair

By Kashaf | 13 May, 2019

Is your hair falling out in chunks? Do you think 2489 times before you brush your hair because so much of it falls out? Do you clog up the drain with hair when you’re showering? Do you stress about your hair loss ALL the time? Hair fall can be a total downer, and unfortunately it can effect both men and women of all ages.

You are not alone, it’s actually pretty normal to lose 50-150 strands of hair a day. But if you feel you’re losing your hair quicker than most, there are numerous reasons why that may be so. Major surgeries, vitamin deficiencies, pregnancy,  extreme stress, weight loss, hormones, genes, certain medications, and excessive styling are all possible reasons behind hair loss.

 

**Keep in mind that these natural remedies aren’t a doctor’s prescription so what works for some may not work for others, so it’s important to do a test patch before putting anything on your scalp**

 

1. Oil, Oil, Oil

Massaging and oiling your hair stimulates blood circulation, which in return helps your hair. Oiling can condition your scalp, make your hair shiny, and strengthen the roots to grow properly and quickly.
