Take some orange juice and apple puree and apply it to the scalp. Apples provide antioxidants that protect hair from external factors’ effects, boosting hair development and reducing hair loss. This will support hair that is naturally thick and healthy.
Indian Gooseberry Mask:
Indian gooseberry, often referred to as amla, has antibacterial and antimicrobial qualities that aid in enhancing the health of the scalp. In addition to promoting hair growth, it strengthens the roots. Combine some amla with coconut oil to create a hair mask. After massaging the oil into your scalp, let it sit for the night. In the morning, wash it off with a gentle shampoo.
Flaxseed Gel:
Flaxseeds are another item that can naturally promote thicker hair since they are high in Omega 3 fatty acids and antioxidants. Take some flax seeds and soak them for one to two hours in water. Once you have a gel-like consistency, begin to boil it. Apply the gel to your hair and scalp after allowing it to cool and rinse off.
Castor Oil and Coconut Oil Massage:
Castor oil works wonders for thicker, stronger hair growth as well as hair regrowth. Because castor oil is a sticky hair oil, you need to combine it with other hair-friendly hair oils like coconut or olive oil. Apply to the scalp and throughout the length of the hair after thoroughly mixing and warming. Rinse off with a typical shampoo after keeping it for an hour or overnight.
Yoghurt:
Yogurt contains probiotics, which may promote healthy hair development and guard against hair damage. According to the research, it boosts the number of subcuticular follicles, producing more luxuriant hair. As a result, it could also aid in accelerating human hair growth. Things You Can Do: Have yoghurt once a day.
Onion Juice:
Scientists have shown that onion juice’s phytochemical components can encourage hair development and may be a successful therapy for patchy alopecia areata. Half an onion should be juiced. Apply it to your scalp after straining it. For an hour, leave it on. Use a shampoo to fully remove it. Follow this twice a week.
Fenugreek:
According to the research, fenugreek greatly reduced hair loss and encouraged the development of new hair in rats. If you have a legume allergy, such as to peanuts, green peas, or soybeans, do not use this home cure. Overnight, soak 1/4 cup of fenugreek seeds in water. Make a paste out of the seeds, then use it as a hair mask.
Fish Oil:
Omega-3 fatty acids, which are abundant in fish oil, can encourage hair growth. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) stimulates the formation of dermal papilla cells in your scalp, which in turn promotes the growth of hair. This can counteract the effects of balding and hair loss. Be careful to speak with your dermatologist before using fish oil supplements.
Coffee:
Coffee contains a lot of caffeine. According to research, caffeine can lengthen the hair shaft and accelerate hair growth by extending the anagen phase. This can slow hair loss and baldness. Brew your coffee and consume it at least once a day. Due to the high caffeine concentration in coffee, limit your intake.
