How to stop hairfall?
Hey there Beautiful people,
If you are stopping by this blog then I know what's concerning you and believe me even I am concerned about it most of the times. If you have read my previous blog then you might already know that I suffered from a continuous loop of hairfall for months .
How much hair fall is normal ??
Let me start by addressing that it is ok to lose 150 to 200 strands of hair everyday but you if you are losing more than that and the hair is not growing back then it is needed to be concerned.
Reasons behind hair fall.
There could be a lot of underlying internal or external factors such as stress ,poor nutrition or excessive use of chemical in your hair care routine but here I am mentioning some of the factors and precautions that could be helpful to tackle hair fall issues in the long run.
Things to avoid while facing hairfall issue
-keeping oil on hair for longer period of time .
as it will prevent your hair from producing its natural oils which will inturn cause more frizz and falling hair.
-washing your hair more often
will just strip away natural oils leaving your hair feel dry and brittle. I will recommend washing your hair not more than twice a week.
-sleeping with open hair
Will just cause hair to wear and tear against each other leading to more tangles and split ends .
-constantly trying out new products
This advertsing world is filled with products that claim to stop hair fall ,grow hair and we get attracted to them seeing beautiful commercials and when we are at mid of similar situation it just becomes impossible to refrain from them ,but trying new products everytime will only exaggerate things instead stick to things that work for you .
-constantly stressing out over hairfall
I know this is the most difficult thing to do out of all the things I jotted above but I have a solution from my experience whenever I feel my hair are falling more than usual I tend to keep it more in protective hair styles like braids and buns which will allow me to comb my hair less and I will encounter falling hair less often so ultimately I would stress less over it .I hope this makes sense to you aswell.
-not oiling your hair at all
Oils are soo important I cannot stress enough on it . If you are someone who doesn't like oiling your hair or keeping it overnight I would suggest you to oil your hair 1-2 hour prior to your hair wash and then wash your hair. Oils not only moisturises your hair but also creates a film around your hair protecting your hair from harmful chemicals present in shampoos and conditioners.
-applying too many chemical products
Instead of going for a fancy packaging go for products that are paraben and sulfates free and when going for hair oil choose oil that are mineral oil free such as pure cocunut oil,olive oil or any other oil of your choice and infuse it with your favourite ingredients at home.
10 things to do to stop your hair from falling
1) Have 4-5 curry leaves empty stomach
whenever I feel my hair are not in the best state or they are falling more than usual, I would just pick 4-5 fresh curry leaves and have it empty stomach as curry leaves are rich source of beta-carotene and proteins, they also contain amino acids and antioxidant which strengthen hair follicle.
2)Practice Balayam
Ref to my previous blog
3)Use essential oils
Essential oil are potent in growing hair as they stimulate the scalp . I would recommend peppermint oil if you are looking forward to grow your hair fast and tea tree oil if dandruff is concerning you because it could also be a possible reason behind falling hair .
4)Hair rinses
Hair mask are time consuming but hair rinses are not soo take some times from busy schedule and try going for hair rinses as last rinse after washing your hair .You can either go for acv rinse(apple cider vinegar),black tea rinse ,green tea rinse or aloe Vera rinse.
5)Inversion method
Lay on your back on your bed invert your head and gently massage your hair for 4 minutes for 7 consecutive days a Month (I generally do from 1st to 7th of the month it just helps me to keep track ). Ref to my previous blog for more details.
6)Onion juice
Apply onion juice once a week . Just peel an onion grind it, extract it's juice apply it all over your scalp and wash it off with a chemical free shampoo . As onions provide rich source of sulphur which in turn helps in strengthening amino acids of keratin.
7)Healthy diet
All the above mentioned things will be useles if you are not taking healthy diet .
Have atleast two fruits a days ,few green veggies, peanuts ,almonds ,walnuts and try sticking to a healthy diet .
8)Infused oils
Oils become more potent when you infuse it with other active ingredients such as fenugreek,curry leaves ,hibiscus,aloe Vera,black seed (kalonji) etc . Just heat your favourite oil using double boiler method low put any of this ingredients and stir it for 5 minutes turn off the flame off let the oil cool and you are good to go.
9)Clean your combs
It is soo important to clean your combs because dirty combs are breeding grounds for tons of bacteria and viruses so just use an old toothbrush and using any surfactant to clean your combs.
10)Serums
Serums are important so as conditioners to lock in the moisture and to provide that shine but those commercial serums packed with chemicals does no good instead make one at your home .
Fill a sparay bottle with filtered water , put a spoon full of aloe Vera and one vitamin e capsule ,shake it well and apply it on your semi dried hair . If you are too lazy to do that apply few drops of pure argan oil and you will see instant results.
If the hair fall is still persistent please do see a doctor and seek medical help .
