Hair growth...........................

If we offered you a miracle remedy that cures "Hair Loss/Baldness" would you buy it? Certainly you would. You won閳ユ獩 find it in a Pharmacy but at the Grocery Store.



Try the Natural Cures for Hair Loss/Baldness.



Loss of hair at a very tender age has become a common disorder these days. It causes a great deal of concern to persons affected by loss of hair, especially Indian women who regard good hair growth with thick long hair as a sign of beauty. Hair is formed in minute pockets in the skin, called follicles. An up growth at the base of the folic, called the papilla, actually produces hair; when a special group of cells turn amino acids into keratin, a type of protein of which hair is made. The rate of production of these proteins " building blocks," determines hair growth. The average growth rate is about 1.2 cm per month, growing faster on women between the ages 15 and 30.



Causes: The most important cause of loss of hair is inadequate nutrition. Even a partial lack of almost any nutrient may cause hair to fall. Persons lacking vitamin B6 lose their hair and those deficient in folic acid often become completely bald. But the hair grows normally after the liberal intake of these vitamins. Another important cause of falling of hair is stress such as worry, anxiety, and sudden shock. Stress leads to a severe tension in the skin of the scalp. This adversely affects the supply of essential nutrition required for the healthy growth of the hair. General debility, syphilis, chronic cold, influenza, and anemia, also gives rise to this disorder. It makes the roots of the hair weak, resulting in the falling of hair. Unclean condition of the scalp can also cause loss of hair. It weakens the hair roots by blocking the pores with the collected dirt. Heredity is another predisposing factor which may cause hair to fall.



Treatment: The healthy condition of the hair depends, to a very large extent, on the intake of sufficient amounts of essential nutrients in the daily diet. Hair is made of protein and adequate protein is necessary for luxuriant hair. Women require 60 grams, men 80 to 90, adolescent boys and girls 80 to 100 grams of protein. It is supplied by milk, buttermilk, yogurt, soyabean, eggs, cheese, meat, and fish. A lack of vitamin A may cause the hair to be coarse and ugly. A deficiency of some of the B vitamins, of iron, copper, and iodine may cause hair disorders like falling of hair and premature greying.



Lack of inositol causes loss of hair. Any person having trouble with his or her hair should eat foods rich in inositol such as yeast, liver and molasses. Research has, however, shown that women have a low requirement of inositol. Although this vitamin may help to stimulate the growth of a woman閳ユ獨 hair, its lack is probably not a major cause of slow growth. Women are generally deficient in iodine and vitamin B1, either of which can slow down circulation to the scalp to such an extent that hair may fall out and new hair grow in very slowly. Women who keep their diets adequate in iodine, the B vitamins and iron have a better growth of hair. According to Adelle Davis, a world famous nutritionist, "increasing the intake of protein, particularly of liver, wheat germ, and yeast, and supplementing the diet with a teaspoon of inositol daily usually stops a man閳ユ獨 hair from falling, and I have seen three or four persons whose hair became thick after these improvements were made." Persons with a tendency to lose hair should thus take a well-balanced and correct diet, made up of foods which in combination should supply all the essential nutrients. It has been found that a diet which contains liberal quantities of (i) seeds, nuts, and grains, (ii) vegetables and (iii) fruits would provide adequate amounts of all the essential nutrients. Each food group should roughly form the bulk of one of the three principal meals. These foods should, however, be supplemented with certain special foods such as milk, vegetable oils, honey, wheat germ, yeast, and liver.



Home Remedies: Several home remedies have been found useful in the prevention and treatment of the loss of the hair. The most effective among these remedies is a vigorous rubbing of the scalp with fingers after washing the hair with cold water. The scalp should be rubbed vigorously till it starts to tingle with the heat. It will activate the sebaceous glands and energies the circulation of blood in the affected area, making the hair grow healthy.



Amla oil, prepared by boiling dry pieces of amla in coconut oil, is considered a valuable hair tonic for enriching hair growth. A mixture of equal quantity of fresh amla juice and lime juice used as a shampoo stimulates hair growth and prevents hair loss.



Lettuce (salad-ka-patta) is useful in preventing hair loss through deficiencies. A mixture of lettuce and spinach juice is said to help the growth of hair if it is drunk to the extent of half a litre a day. The juice of alfalfa (lecerne) in combination with carrot and lettuce juice, taken daily also helps the growth of hair to a remarkable extent. The combination of these juices is rich in elements which are particularly useful for the growth of hair. While preparing alfalfa juice, the leaves of the plant only may be used when it can be obtained fresh.



Daily application of refined coconut oil mixed with limewater and limejuice on the hair, prevents loss of hair and lengthens them. Application of the juice of green coriander leaves on the head is also considered beneficial. Amaranth, known as chaulai-ka-saag in the vernacular, is another valuable remedy. Application of its fresh leaf-juice helps the growth of the hair and keeps them soft.



Mustard oil, boiled with henna leaves, is useful in healthy growth of hair. About 250 grams of mustard oil should be boiled in tinned basin. A little quantity of henna leaves should be gradually put in this oil till about 60 grams of these leaves are thus burnt in the oil. The oil should then be filtered through a cloth and stored well in a bottle. A regular massage of the head with this oil will produce abundant hair.



Another effective home remedy for loss of hair is the application of coconut milk all over the scalp and massaging it into the hair loss. It will nourish the hair and promote hair growth. The coconut milk is prepared by grinding the coconut shavings and squeezing it well. Washing the hair with a paste of cooked black gram dal, (urad dal), and fenugreek (methi) lengthens the hair. A fine paste made from pigeon pea or red gram (arhar dal ) can also be applied regularly with beneficial results on bald patches. Regular use of castor oil as hair oil helps the luxuriant growth of the hair.



Certain home remedies have also been found useful in case of patchy loss of hair. The seeds of lime and black pepper seeds, ground to get a fine paste, is one of the valuable remedies. This paste applied on the patches, has mildly irritant action. This increases blood circulation in the affected area and stimulates hair growth. The paste should be applied twice a day for a few weeks.



Another useful remedy for patchy loss of hair is the paste of liquorice (mulethi) made by grinding the pieces in milk with a pinch of saffron. This paste should be applied over the bald patches in the night before going to bed.



Hope this helps, Good Luck.

Drink Milk! I think since hair grows from inside your body not just on your body like trees what you do to your hair from the outside only helps what is already there.



If you want to grow more hair you have to add nutrients to the body not the hair itself (just like watering and putting plant food for growing plants).



Food rich in Calcium and Vitamins that help absorb calcium should be on top of your list.



You have to remember though that it is normal for hair to fall in small amounts. You say you are just 15 and I'm sure you have no where nearly reached your full hair growing peak so just be patient :D.



Given your age you should also be careful not to go overboard with hair products that are designed for aging women or people with serious hair loss problems. To tell the least most of them contain nasty chemicals that could harm or even poison you if not handled carefully.



Ok, that's just my personal thoughts but if you want somebody else's opinion here is a great site that talks all about this issue:

Blonde Hair.....?

Am I the only person who thinks blonde hair isnt so hot anymore?? I think it lost its novelty when



1. People with light brown hair started calling it blonde



2. When people started FREAKING COLORING THEIR HAIR BLONDE



3. when people who werent natural blondes said they were



4. when 75% of the girls in the school had blonde hair.



Blonde Hair.....?

i think it looks good natural or fake, but if its fake to use a color that matches you.



Blonde Hair.....?

i think blond hair looks good when its natural.



Blonde Hair.....?

I think blond hair looks good when it's natural.



Blonde Hair.....?

I think we each ought to color our hair or not and style it the way we like and to heck with everyone else. The only opinion that matters in the end is the person with the hair.



Blonde Hair.....?

Not everyone can be blonde. I think the fad now is to look Brazilian or Latin. But any blonde will tell you she has more fun.



Blonde Hair.....?

Ya I think it used to be hot . I know lots of people that aren't blonde and always color their hair blonde but you don't see much of that anymore. I am naturally blonde and feel like I want to go darker. I guess everyone wants what they don't have.



Blonde Hair.....?

well, idk i like redheads better than blones(natural or bleached)



Blonde Hair.....?

I am a natural blonde; never colored. It always bugs me to see women with dark or black roots and badly damaged hair.



Blondes don't necessarily have more fun, girls, so go natural, whatever it is, and be a beautiful You--not someone else.



Blonde Hair.....?

I like natural blond hair.



Blonde Hair.....?

its not hot anymore. when christina milian did it i knew it had hit its breaking point. before i knew it, post-beyonce era, most if not all of the black female entertainers were coloring their hair blonde as if that was the thing to do. i want it stopped.

Why is my hair so fizzy and dry?

Ok, so..I have very dry, frizzy hair. Its about 3 inches blow my shoulders. I also have a high amount of iron in my water at home. I do not know how to get my hair to look heathly and not look so dry and frizzy. I've dried dry/damaged shampoos, leave in conditioners, and dehumidifier hair spray on my hair. After using that I just blow dry it on high heat. I've tried using cold hair on my blow drying and that won't work. None of it works. I wash my hair every morning. And if I don't wash my hair every morning it looks oily and not pretty. Its a lose lose situation. If you have any idea as to how to make my hair look NORMAL pleeeease help. =(



Why is my hair so fizzy and dry?

Do you know that shampoo dries out hair? It's not neccessarily a bad thing, but for some hair types it is. Shampoos contain some of the same ingredients as laundry detergents! Use a shampoo with a low concentration of sodium laureth (salt- really bad for your hair) or don't use it at all. Simply massage your scalp with conditioner and rinse to remove dirt. My hair has become less oily and dry since I did this. Paul Mitchell Instant Moisture Daily Treatment condition or Aussie moist condition are some good conditioners. Visit the sites for more tips on how to get naturally healthy hair!



Why is my hair so fizzy and dry?

I have the same problem with my hair, im thinking about persuading my mom to let me get it thinned because right now I cant do anythig with it.



Why is my hair so fizzy and dry?

I'm pretty much the same way.



It sucks I must say.



What I do is take a shower at night then dry my hair with paper towels. It will make the fly aways stay down.



Then you can shampoo your hair once a week with a couple of drops of hunny in your shampoo like in your hand. That will make it shiny but not greasy. (Wash like 2 times after the hunny shampoo)



Or some days you can alturnate and only use conditioner. It will leave the oils and all the good stuff in your hair with out making it greasy.



If all else fails I use Tresemme anti-frizz secret. Its cheap. That or the frizzy be gone stuff. Don't worry bout it.



You can use the mayo secret too. Cover your head in mayo leave in for 10 minutes then rinse twice. It sounds gross and it smells gross but its good I swear.



And alturnate every other day with straighting your hair and just putting gel or mouss in it for curly days.



Let your hair regain a little before you straighten it.



Good luck.



:]



Why is my hair so fizzy and dry?

ok so dont wash it everyday if it is super frizzy but if it is oily then put baby powder in it but make sure you brush it so you cant see the white. um dont blow dry it everyday and if you straighten it, it will make it even worse. [[i learned this from my modeling experiences..lol]] next time you go to the hair stylist ask her about products you can use to keep it moist and not oily. but for now try aussie shampoo and just make sure not to dry it everyday. good luck :]]



Why is my hair so fizzy and dry?

maybe it is youre shampoo or conditioner i had REALLY dry hair once but then i tried like pantene PROv and that works um try that or fructise that works to um or guy to a REALLY good hair dresser and see wat he\she says and for your frizziness try um fantasia frizz buster serum it works for me



Why is my hair so fizzy and dry?

1.Try Mayo. 2.Go To YOUR Hair Salon.



Why is my hair so fizzy and dry?

Have the same problem.



I am sorry though if the product I mention cannot be found as I live in Hong Kong.



I use Bans (I think its an american brand) for wavy hair, like an ion hair treament spray. Just after towel drying I spray some on my hair. Leaves the hair quite most (But not very wavy, but I dont mind that)



I also use Lucido Hair Repair Oil (Japanese brand, dark transparent purple bottle) on the tips only, right after towel drying the hair. Very good for preventing split ends.



Once a week I will use a strong moisturising cream to leave for 20-30 minutes prior to hair washing. Its from Lush. You can also use Olive Oil. Very good for the hair, but a bit hard to wash off. Hair may not be too shiny for 2 days after if its not cleaned out properly.



I will get myself Anti-frizz serum from Marc...something, I forgot. Its an english brand with colorful bottles.



also, try drying your hair on medium heat, rather than high heat with the blow-dryer. You are really damaging your hair with the high heat.



As for not washing every day, the 1st day you can let it loose, but the 2nd day, just keep it up in a pony tail. The "dirtyness" wont be that visible. You will feel it, but letting your scalp rest may help. Or just dont wash it on sundays, or saturdays.



Try a soothing shampoo as well, Klorane have good shampoos, a bit expensive but high quality.



Why is my hair so fizzy and dry?

You may need to oil your hair with either Pantene Hair Moisturizer or Olive Oil Moisturizer. You can also use Olive Oil Hair Spray or Pink Hair Spray (Sheen). Or you may just need a good wash with Olive Oil Shampoo and Conditioner with a softening conditioner also ( wash twice ) Wash your hair every 2 weeks.

Will my hair grow back, after damage from ironing?

I am 16 years old and i have been ironing my hair since i was 12 with a real iron. I finally realize that i need to stop this, my hair is falling out, it is very thin and i fear that i will lose the rest. I know i need to stop ironing my hair, it has alomost become an addiction. From what i have read i should use egg on my hair as a conditioner. I also purcased expert L'Oreal shampoo and conditioner. My question is now that the damaged hair has fallen out, is their a chance of it growning back if i take care of it? I am so used to ironing my hair that i dont know how else to stlye it. I also curl my hair, but could you offer me some styling tips that wont damage my exsisting hair?.. im SO scared, someone please help!



Will my hair grow back, after damage from ironing?

Stay away from heat when you can. Get rid of your iron and your curling iron.



Only blow dry your hair if you have to leave the house. If you take a shower and you are going to be lounging around the house let it air dry.



Try to stay away from styling products as well. Us sparingly.



Get a trim regularly this way you are cutting off the dead stuff at the end.



Condition regularly so you can get the moisture out of your hair.



Next time you get a hair cut request a style that looks great but is low maintenance.



Will my hair grow back, after damage from ironing?

Yes, you definently need to stop ironing your hair. First before worring about how to style it worry about fixing it first. I recommend using panteen shampoo and conditioner 2 repair the damage you have already caused. Buy the repair in one month conditioner and never brush or comb your hair while wet because it causes hair to fall out since the pores are open more so than when the hair is dry. Don't blow dry your hair or straighten it or curl it for a while and you should have a chance otherwise you'll just cause more damage to your hair. Give it atleast a month or more and than if things are better try styling it in a low pony tail(high ones pull your hair out) or loose brades and then letting them out so it's wavy. Ask a salon proffessional for more styles. Good Luck!



Will my hair grow back, after damage from ironing?

it should grow back. It might take a while, and might be a very slow process, but it should.



First.... Step very very far away from the iron. DO NOT touch it anymore!!! They are NOT designed to flaten hair. If you want to fix this problem and ever has good healthy hair, you have to stop.



You should be taking some kind of daily vitamin. Im 27 and still take chewable flintstones bc I hate taking pills. Any kind of daily vitamin intake is excellent not only for hair, but also skin and nails.



I would suggest to go have a good trim and style put into your hair. Expecially if its been more than two months since your last. This can get some of those nasty ends off, and give you something nice to work with while trying to grow. If you go too long between trims (esp when damaging it like you are) it can cause alot more hair damage.



Go to Sallys, Walmart, Kmart, whatever you have access to and get yourself some hot oil treatments, hair masks, deep conditioners, etc. Using these will help. You can use anything like this at home. Dont go overly crazy bc they can also tend to leave a build up on your hair. Follow the instructions and you should be fine.



Get yourself a nice shampoo and conditoner for dry/damaged hair.



If possible dont wash your hair everyday. Go at least everyother day. This will allow the natural oil your scalp produces to get into your hair.



Dont pull your hair into a tight ponytail, bun, etc when its wet. This will make your hair break.



Dont brush your hair when its wet. Comb lightly and gently.



As far as styling tips, you need something easy that you dont have to do much at all to. I cant really say, bc I dont know what you have to work with, but if you see a hairdresser I am sure he/she could help to find something for you. Try to use as little heat as possible for a while.



Good Luck honey.
