Are you one of the million victims of hair loss? Then do not fear as you are not alone. Millions of men and women around the globe suffer from hair loss. It is an issue cause due to stress, environmental conditions, poor diet and a hectic lifestyle. Introduction of new medications also may cause loss of hair. It is a condition that is common to the summer months.

Home remedies for hair loss

To avoid hair fall you must not wash your hair with water that is extremely hot. Use warm water to wash your hair. Do not wash your hair daily, washing it 2 to 3 times a week with shampoo and conditioner will suffice. Avoid hair styles that require you to back comb your hair as this leads to hair breakage. Do not brush or comb your hair too often either. Keep it tied up in a pony tail or bun if you are suffering from hair fall. Get a hot oil massage once a week. Massage Aloe Vera gel onto your scalp and leave it for 30 minutes, this helps to lock in moisture in your hair and prevents hair fall.

If you have a receding hair line then massage a piece of an onion into your scalp till your skin begins to turn red, then apply honey on the area and wash it off after an hour.
