Natural Treatment For Baldness!

Baldness with age is common. It is a serious concern if it begins at an early age. The most simple home remedy for baldness is hydrotherapy. Begin this therapy by putting a cold and hot cloth on your head. Do not let your hair follicles get blocked.

Build good eating habits such as green vegetables, protein-rich foods such as milk, curds, fish, pulses and have balanced diet to stop hair loss. Stop consumption of alcohol, caffeine, aerated drinks, junk food etc. Stress, dieting, excess salt consumption should be avoided. Herbs such as ginko, green tea, saw palmetto can be used as natural ingredient to treat hair problems. Food rich in Biotin would be the best food options you may consider. There are both topical and oral preparations and these can complement each other by reducing DHT locally on the scalp and throughout the body so promoting healthy hair growth.

Make use of conditioners and shampoos which is ideal for your scalp. You must not use shampoos more than twice a week if your hair is dry. Shampoos based on Aloe Vera or any other natural product can be advantageous. Do not use shampoos and conditioners which are used in the same product. Make use of shampoo and then follow that up with a separate conditioner. Conditioner makes your hair look soft and your shampoo can give your hair fuller appearance if your hair is scanty.

Male and female pattern baldness can be addressed commonly with proper dietary practices. You should consume food rich in essential minerals such as iron, protein, zinc supplementation, silica and calcium such as milk, fish, green vegetables. It is often said that male pattern baldness is a result of a hormone called dihydrotestosterone or DHT. Saw palmetto, Aloe Vera, Citrus Fruits, Jojoba, Rosemary and Sage are commonly used herbs to treat hair problems. Vitamin and mineral supplement is prescribed to those who are suffering from hair problem due to vitamin and mineral deficiency.

Proponents of aromatherapy swear by the oils obtained from bay, cedar wood, grapefruit, jojoba, lavender, lemon, rosemary, thyme and Roman chamomile are used for hair massages. Crudoleum is a treatment containing unrefined crude oil, which is rubbed into the scalp and supposedly stimulates hair growth by increasing blood circulation, although results aren't apparent until after several months of use. Nothing can compete with natural treatments for your hair problems. Resort to natural modes of treating your hair!
