Are you worried seeing all those additional strands of hair in your comb everyday? Well, it is natural to lose up to 100 strands of hair in a day, but, excessive hair loss is definitely something that you need to worry about. Your lustrous locks need as much care as your face. So, here are some simple ways to increase your hair volume naturally.
Use Aloe Vera
It can work wonders if used sensibly. Aloe vera is a natural remedy to bring hair fall under control. It provides essential moisture and nutrients to your scalp; thus, boosting hair growth. Apply aloe vera gel directly to scalp and let it stay for one hour. Then shampoo your hair to rinse it out. Regular use of this will definitely reduce hair fall.
Be cautious of shampoos
Many people have a common question when its comes to using shampoos, ‘should we shampoo our hair every day or not’? Well, yes, you need to be cautious of how often you shampoo your hair. Here is what experts say:
Zoe Draelos, MD, writes in the International Journal of Trichology, “Daily shampooing is only necessary if oil production on the scalp is high.” The famous stylist Nick Arrojo says, “Shampooing three or four times a week is plenty.”
But, what should you do to absorb the oil between washes? Well, Arrojo says, “One trick is to use talcum powder in the hair in lieu of shampoo. But, powders shouldn’t replace shampoo all together.”
Note: Using a good conditioner after shampoo is necessary. Conditioner makes your hair more manageable and easier to untangle. Also, remember that you apply the conditioner at least 1-2 inches away from your scalp.
Good ‘old’ Amla
Amla has always been an age-old herbal remedy for so many hair problems. From preventing grey hair to promoting hair growth, it does it all. Include one amla daily in your diet. Eat it on an empty stomach to get phenomenal results.
Oil massage
Massaging your scalp is very important as it improves the blood circulation and makes your roots healthy. Use warm oil to massage your hair and scalp. Always massage your scalp in circular motion. It is best to use either coconut or jojoba oil. Use rosemary oil to combat dandruff. After the massage, wrap your hair in a warm towel for a few minutes to provide extra conditioning to your hair.
No chemicals
It is best to avoid unnecessary hair procedures, like perming, straightening, and colouring. Such processes leave your hair dull and dry. Not only this, they also make your hair fragile and weaken your roots, thus leaving you more prone to hair loss.
De-stress
Stress is seen as a major culprit behind hair loss. Excess stress can lead to hair thinning and hair greying as well. Some of the good ways to distress is to include yoga or exercise in your daily routine. This would not only help you to de-stress but also boost the flow of oxygen and blood to your scalp.
Balanced diet
A healthy and balanced diet is very important to enhance the volume of your hair naturally. Include necessary vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin B, C, zinc, iron and copper in your diet. They will promote hair growth by strengthening your hair follicles. Also, drink at least 8 glasses of water every day to keep your body and hair hydrated.
