The article
focuses on the traditional remedies that emerged as common treatments
on a widespread basis throughout the world.
Do traditional hair loss remedies have any relevance
today?
Could it be possible that our ancestors got it right with some of
their traditional hair loss remedies? Folklore tells us they certainly
went to great lengths to find solutions to thinning hair.
Although each culture had its own approach influenced
by local conditions, there seem to have been many examples of common
practices. Nettles, for example, formed an important element of
traditional hair loss remedies throughout the world.
The samples outlined here have been sourced from the
very informative work "Hair Loss Prevention Through Natural Remedies"
by Peters et al. This book provides a wealth of information on this
topic and can be easily purchased through Amazon or other good booksellers.
Rosemary Solution - this herb crops up frequently in
herbal texts for its ability to cleanse the scalp and stimulate
the hair root. Here is one recipe that features rosemary as its
core ingredient. Recipe: boil rosemary, sage, peach leaf, nettle
and burdock in water. Strain and use to wash hair daily.
Apple Cider Vinegar - this is mentioned often in folk
remedies for hair loss. It is believed to exert a normalizing effect
on the scalp's oil glands and has a strong cleansing effect. Method:
Part hair into sections. Apply two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
directly to the scalp with a moistened cotton ball. Allow between
fifteen minutes and three hours before shampooing.
Essential Oils - essential oils distilled from plants
have long been recognized for their ability to improve scalp circulation
and encourage cell generation. Amongst the most useful are cedarwood,
clary sage, eucalyptus, lavender and rosemary. Method: mix ten drops
of essential oil with one ounce of carrier oil (jojoba or olive
oil). Massage it into the scalp for a minimum of fifteen minutes
before shampooing.
Cayenne Pepper Hair Tonic - the ability of this herb
to irritate the skin, increase blood flow and stimulate cell division
is well known. Recipe: mix four ounces of cayenne pepper with one
pint of one hundred proof vodka or pure alcohol diluted with 20
percent distilled water. Let it stand for two weeks, shaking the
mixture once each day. Strain through several layers of fine cloth
until the mixture is free of pepper. Once or twice a day, rub a
small amount onto the thinning areas of the scalp.
