how to stop hair fall and regrow hair naturally - #24992

Elijah

I am struggling with this hair fall issue and it’s driving me a bit crazy. I mean, I’m only in my late 30s and noticing that my hair is thinning a lot. Last month, I even saw a bunch of strands fall out while I was brushing! And it’s not just normal shedding; I feel like I can almost see my scalp now. I really want to know how to stop hair fall and regrow hair naturally, but I'm confused about where to start. I've tried some over-the-counter stuff, but it’s full of chemicals, and I'm not sure if they’re making it worse. My friend mentioned oils and natural remedies, like coconut oil and even a mix of aloe vera, but I don't knwo how effective those might be. Do any of you have experiences or tips on how to stop hair fall and regrow hair naturally? Sometimes, I hear about diet affecting hair health too and I'm willing to change my eating habits if it helps! Seriously, this is stressing me out. What should I really focus on to see results?

Addressing hair fall naturally involves understanding the principles of Ayurveda, which identifies the root causes linked to dosha imbalances and overall lifestyle. Hair health, according to Ayurveda, is connected to the condition of your bones and the proper functioning of your agni or digestive fire. First, focus on balancing your doshas, particularly Pitta, known for causing hair thinning when aggravated. You might notice imbalance if you’re experiencing frequent stress, consuming too much spicy or fried food, or excessive caffeine intake. Reducing these can stabilize your Pitta dosha. In terms of your diet, make sure it’s nourishing for your hair. Consume foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids like flaxseeds, walnuts, and almonds. Green leafy vegetables provide essential vitamins and minerals that support hair health. Hydration is also crucial; aim for sufficient water intake to help circulate nutrients to the hair follicles. For topical care, using oils can indeed be beneficial. Massaging your scalp with warm coconut oil or bhringraj oil enhances circulation and nourishes the roots. Apply oil to your scalp twice a week, leaving it overnight, then washing gently with a mild shampoo in the morning. Aloe vera can aid if applied fresh from the leaf, as it soothes the scalp and strengthens hair. Including specific herbs in your routine, like amla (Indian gooseberry) and ashwagandha, can be very advantageous. Amla can be consumed fresh, in powdered form, or used as oil. Ashwagandha helps in reducing cortisol levels, minimizing stress-induced hair loss. Avoid excessive heat styling or chemical treatments on your hair that may exacerbate the issue. Maintaining a consistent sleep schedule to ensure your body gets adequate rest, is important for reducing stress levels. Understanding that regrowth takes time, aim for a consistent routine and make adjustments based on your body’s response. If hair fall persists or worsens, consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner for a tailored approach is advisable.
