The Basics Of Dealing With Hair Loss
It can be very frustrating when you experience any type of hair loss, especially if your glorious hair has been your lifelong crowning glory. Fortunately, there are some things that can be done about it. This article will discuss just some of the ways that you can deal with hair loss.
If you are losing hair, try massaging your scalp with a bit of coconut oil before you shampoo it. Spending a few minutes on a scalp massage is not only relaxing, but the extra circulation that it stimulates may help the hair follicles better receive nutrients that they need to grow.
If you are lucky enough to have caught your hair loss in the beginning stages thereof then you may want to try UV treatment. Studies have shown its effectiveness in preventing the advancing of hair loss. As such however, there is a caveat that they only showed mild improvement half the time. It is what it is, an option.
You can make a pre-wash paste to use before you wash your hair to help prevent hair loss. You simple take henna with fenugreek, curd, egg and amala. Mix them into a paste form and apply it to the scalp. Allow it to sit for about five minutes prior to washing your hair.
Women especially should avoid teasing or back combing their hair at all costs. Even if you are not experiencing hair loss, this age old styling trick will break your hair at a more frequent rate and make your hair eventually look less full. This is the exact opposite of what you’re trying to achieve.
Stress is disputed depending on who you talk to, but many people agree that excess stress levels can lead to hair loss. At the very least, having increased levels of stress will work to counteract any products you’re taking to assist in hair growth. Make sure you work on your stress if you want to grow your hair back.
A grooming tip which can prevent the thinning and breakage of hair is to avoid a hair style that pulls the hair tight. Many people, especially women, choose a hair style where the hair is pulled back tightly and is held there with a fastening device such as an elastic band or barrette. Styling your hair in this manner causes friction between the strands of hair and results in the breakage and thinning of hair.
A great contributing factor to hair loss is hair style. Ponytails and other hair styles that cause the hair to be pressed too much can be a contributing factor to hair loss. The simple solution to this is just changing the style in which your hair is worn and you will avoid the loss of hair.
Those are just some of the things that you need to know about dealing with the frustration of hair loss. Try what you’ve learned here, and it will not only help you to stop further hair loss, but you could be on the road to regaining your former glory!
