To avoid hair loss, improve circulation and stimulate its growth, it is very convenient that we brush it daily and massage the scalp.
Many people suffer from hair loss without finding a solution, since it can be related to many factors such as genetics, hormones, stress, diet, etc. Therefore, today we will see how to prevent hair loss and even make it grow fast.
Can you prevent hair loss?
Each case is different and a personalized diagnosis must be made to discover, first of all, what is the cause of this disorder.
Often these can be temporary issues related to a poor diet, a period of stress, or a temporary thyroid disorder, so you can look for a personalized treatment that is effective and appropriate.
Other times it can be a major health problem or genetic inheritance, which are more difficult issues to resolve.
However, if we follow these tips constantly we can notice a significant improvement in a short time.
These tips are also suitable for those people who do not suffer from hair loss but who want their hair to grow faster and stronger.
1. Relax the scalp
Today we suffer tensions of all kinds and in any part of the body. One of these areas, although it may surprise us, is the scalp.
This tension hinders or prevents good blood supply to the hair root, which can cause hair loss, weakening, gray hair, excess sebum, dandruff, etc.
The first step to fight against these tensions is to massage the entire scalp every day. It should not be a superficial massage, but a little more intense, trying to move and relax the entire surface.
It is a very relaxing massage, perfect for 5 or 10 minutes every day before going to bed. This will help prevent hair loss.
2. Stimulate it with mint and cinnamon
By doing this scalp massage we can enhance its effects using some natural product that helps us stimulate blood flow.
A very simple option is found in two essential oils with stimulating properties: mint and cinnamon.
Both oils promote circulation but with the opposite effect. The mint gives freshness, while the cinnamon gives heat. By combining them we get a very beneficial cold-heat effect.
We must always use them in small quantities, with a hydrating base:
- 2 tablespoons of aloe vera gel or extra virgin coconut oil (30 g).
- 5 drops of peppermint essential oil.
- 5 drops of cinnamon essential oil.
3. Choose natural products
If we want to take care of any part of the body and prevent hair loss, we should always choose the most natural hygiene and cosmetic products possible.
In the case of hair, we should especially avoid those that contain too strong preservatives (parabens) and sulfates, such as sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) or sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES).
We can find natural or organic products in herbalists and natural products stores.
4. Comb your hair every day
It seems very obvious, but combing is a way to improve circulation in the scalp and spread the sebum well to have a more balanced and shiny hair.
We must use suitable combs made of natural materials, such as wooden ones with bristles of plant or animal origin. We will comb our hair in all directions every day.
5. That you don’t lack nutrients
It is essential to have a balanced diet, rich in vitamins, minerals, protein and fatty acids, to provide the ingredients that our hair needs.
The following foods cannot be missing from our diet:
- Nuts and seeds.
- Raw fruits and vegetables.
- Vegetables.
- Blue Fish.
- Egg.
- Ghee.
- Algae.
- Seawater or sea salt.
- Beer yeast.
6. Turn upside down
Inverted postures in which the head is below the rest of the body are very beneficial for health and, specifically, to prevent hair loss.
We can do some simple posture, lie down inclined or use a specific gym machine.
It will be enough to do it for 5 or 10 minutes every day, starting gradually. We should avoid doing it during digestion or menstruation.
7. Say goodbye to stress
Finally, do not forget that stress is one of the worst health problems that we can have since it imbalances the entire organism and leads to multiple disorders, including hair loss.
We encourage you to take into account all these tips to prevent hair loss, as they will help you a lot to control this. However, we encourage you to consult an expert.
Perhaps your hair loss is due to suffering from seborrheic dermatitis or some other problem that needs specific treatment.
