Hair washing
Men take regular head bath, but women cannot
since they keep their hair long. However everyday over scalp
secretes Sebum and Sweat and they are embedded with dust particles,
a part of pollution. Many avoid, due to, the tendency to catch
cold which drag them into Sinusitis. No excuse! Take head
bath regularly to get rid of scalp excretions and dust particles.
Women can have hair wash thrice in a week. Your cold problem
can be better remedied with Homoeopathic medicines.
Next… How to wash? Natural
shampooing with herbal powders are good. Homeopathically Arnica
Shampoo is popular. Conditioners and other ingredients may
help your hair to feel softer and look shinier, but frequent
use would cause the hair shaft to swell and damage the cuticle.
An ideal shampoo is neither highly acidic nor alkaline which
keeps the PH between 4.5 - 5.5. Simple way is to dilute with
50% water and wash.
Next question comes…Whether
Cold water or Hot water? Don’t use water, which
is neither too cold nor very hot. Use water at room temperature
as, this is very natural! Tepid water is fine. Do not use
blow dryers to dry your hair. Stand beneath fan or leave it
for sometime while you engage with some other works.
Hairdressing:
Vigorous brushing is more likely to injure
the hairs. Comb it with wide toothed part initially, then
with narrow tooth to avoid traction. Hair dyes, Perms and
Hairsprays do not affect thinning hair because hair is a dead
tissue, however long-term use would make your hair to lose
its lustrous and would shake if it penetrates your hair follicle.
Oiling:
Many do not apply oils to their hair, even years together.
How it is? Naturally the Sebum secretion is more which nourishes
their hair naturally. Many have dry hair, which needs oiling
to nourish externally. Moisturized hair will keeps not only
lustrous look, but also prevents the effects of heat and cold.
Plain coconut oil is preferable. Apply oil at bedtime and
wash it off the next day to give fantastic look.
General measures:
- About 90% of the hair
follicles of the scalp are growing phase and only about
10% are in the resting phase. The growing phase” Anagen”
varies from 4-8 years to determine length of individual’s
hair. Remember 30-50 hairs we lose each day. Even though
new hairs will be replaced by the hair follicle, in abnormal
conditions hair fall rate is higher than normal levels.
In premature baldness the shrunken hair follicles shed short
and thin hairs.
- Add Milk, Egg, Meat, Greens, Dates, Gingily
and Jaggery in your food; they are rich in Lenoleic acid,
Iron, Calcium and Selenium to fertilize the Hair follicles.
Carrot, Beetroots and Curry leaves, will prevent premature
graying. A recent study shows Colloidal minerals prevent
Premature graying. These minerals have been processed only
through a plant. Apple and Banana contains all Colloidal
minerals.
- Limit the intake of coffee, tea, alcohol,
and other fluids that increase water loss.
- Reducing your stress levels might cut production
of Androgens and Slow Hair loss and baldness. Make yourself
easy, calm and relaxed.
- Take care of your general health, which
is vital to all!
