Can you re-grow your Hair with home remedies?
Hair is a sensitive concern for both men and women. Issues like hair fall, baldness, receding hairline, and thinning hair have caused sleepless nights for many. The market is flooded with products that promise hair regrowth and improvement in hairline.
But is it truly possible to bring back lost hair or prevent further loss? Yes, it is. Based on my experience of treating thousands of hair loss patients over the past 15 years, I can say that hair regrowth requires consistency and willpower.
We have successfully achieved hair regrowth in mild cases by using a holistic approach that includes:
- hair regrowth diet
- vitamins
- hair regrowth serum/minoxidil
- home remedies
However, severe or chronic cases often require prescription medications and PRP sessions. The most important secret to hair regrowth is this: start treatment as soon as you notice hair fall.
1. Scalp Massage
Massaging your hair and scalp can promote hair growth. When done with hair regrowth oil, it may prevent hair fall and stimulate new growth. In India, oiling hair is a common practice. You can massage your scalp once or twice a week.
To do this, take some oil in your palm, apply it to your scalp, and gently massage using your fingertips for at least 10 minutes. Scalp massage also helps reduce stress and tension—both are known triggers for hair loss.
2. Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is one of the best natural remedies for treating hair loss. It contains fatty acids that prevent protein loss from the hair and has the ability to penetrate the hair shaft and nourish the roots.
3. Make Your Own Hair Regrowth Oil
Ayurveda supports the use of Bhringraj, Brahmi, and Amla for stimulating hair regrowth. Scientific studies also show promise with peppermint and rosemary oil.
To prepare your own hair regrowth oil, mix the following in a dry, airtight bottle:
- 95 ml Coconut Oil
- 5 ml Amla Oil
- 4 ml Brahmi Oil
- 5 ml Bhringraj Oil
- 5 ml Rosemary Essential Oil
- 5 ml Peppermint Oil
Massage your scalp with this oil once or twice a week. Avoid use if your scalp is itchy, red, or irritated, as herbal oils might not suit sensitive scalps.
4. Style With Natural Aloe Vera Hair Gel
If you enjoy styling your hair with wax or gels, consider switching to this natural aloe vera gel that not only styles but also nourishes and promotes hair growth.
You will need:
- Aloe Vera Gel (preferably organic and chemical-free)
- Hair Regrowth Oil (from the recipe above or a store-bought version)
Mix 100 gm of aloe vera gel with 5 ml of your hair regrowth oil in a dry, airtight container. You can adjust the consistency by increasing oil up to 50 ml gradually—wait at least 3 days before adding more oil.
Usage:
- As a hair mask, leave it on the scalp overnight or for a few hours before washing.
- As a styling gel, apply a pea-sized amount to towel-dried hair and style as usual.
5. Follow a Healthy Diet
This is non-negotiable. Poor diet and lifestyle can significantly impact your physical and mental health, including your hair. Stress and poor sleep can disrupt the hair cycle and contribute to hair fall.
Hair and skin are indicators of internal health. If you are experiencing hair loss or dull skin, consider a lifestyle change. Stress raises cortisol levels, which in turn can trigger hair fall.
A balanced diet, proper sleep, and stress management are key components of any effective hair fall treatment plan.
6. Onion Juice
Despite its strong smell, onion juice is known to help with various hair issues, including hair loss. It is believed to improve blood circulation in the scalp, which is vital for healthy hair.
Apply the juice to your scalp, leave it on for 15 minutes, and then wash with a mild shampoo. Alternatively, you can use a good-quality onion oil.
7. Lemon Juice
Lemon juice also supports hair health by improving scalp cleanliness and stimulating hair growth. It may also help reduce dandruff.
Mix 5–10 drops of lemon juice with 1 teaspoon of coconut oil. Apply this to your scalp, leave it for 15 minutes, and wash with a gentle shampoo. Do this two to three times a week for best results.
The Bottom Line
Hair fall and regrowth can be managed at home with these simple yet effective remedies. While home treatments require patience and regular use, they often yield encouraging results over time.
Remember, eating well and living a healthy lifestyle are crucial to maintaining your hair health.
