Taking Care of Your Curls: Remedies to Hair Loss & Premature Baldness

Irrespective of our age and shape, hair continues to be our crowning glory. It's more of societal status these days. By and large, it is your tresses that uphold your testament. So classically, losing your curls is almost the same as losing your identity. And don’t you think this is enough a reason for hair loss to have posed itself as such serious and depressive a problem to us all?

Maintaining good healthy hair, thick and shinning locks full of life with that extra bounce is difficult a task these days, and hair thinning coupled with hair loss is not just the domain of women; as discussed earlier, even men these days are facing the same problem of premature baldness and hair loss. So come let’s fight out the causes of hair loss following some of the very basic yet significant remedies:

Diet – that’s the real clue to successful hair care. Maintaining a standard diet with the perfect proportion of calcium and iron, protein and vitamin, including the intake of sufficient green leafy vegetables example – cabbage, different breeds of spinach, and even some of the nutritious fruits – orange, banana, apple, ripe guava, lemon etc takes you a long way in keeping your tresses intact and restoring the lost hair health.

Follow a regular regimen of washing, conditioning and combing your hair with utmost care. Bathing your curls in lukewarm water adding the juice of a fresh lemon in the last rinse has earned the testimonial of thousands of hair conscious people across the globe. So this is something that you too can try out, but remember – no vigorous combing of your hair at any point of time, especially following a wash.

Oil massage is by far one of the most significant tips to proper hair care. Not recommended on a daily basis, but a gentle almond/ olive oil massage given to your scalp at least twice a week works wonders in strengthening your hair, and improving your tresses in terms of growth and quality.
Must have heard of dietary supplements? These over-the-counter supplements help a lot when it comes to preventing your hair from being lost or thinned out. Vitamin B, C & E capsules are some of the well-known and widely used supplements that pledges to take care of your beloved hair.

Shampooing followed by proper conditioning holds the key to proper hair care, but make sure that you pick and choose the right shampoo to care for your hair. It is important to assess your hair type prior to selecting the shampoo. However dermatologists highly recommend the use of mild shampoos and conditioners, especially the herbal ones. Using the right shampoo followed by the proper conditioning therapy casts a complete magic spell within a short span of time. Keep the use of hair colors or dyes, blowers or heaters at bay as much as possible.

Drink plenty of water to help flush out the toxins from your system. A clean system ensures healthy hair.

In case you experience severe hair loss, it is best that you turn to some of the contemporary surgical treatments like hair transplantation. Feeling dubious about its success? Don’t worry; transplantation is by far the most pragmatic methods to enhance your hair growth.

If not trimmed frequently, your hair tends to develop split ends. And you must be aware of the fact that split ends retards proper hair growth; so it is important that your trim your hair at least once in every 8 weeks.

Lastly, exercise regularly. Exercising plays a crucial role in maintaining your body as well as your hair in good shape.

Speaking of premature baldness – a common problem in men in addition to hair loss and hair thinning – there’s a group of women who opines that bald men carry a different attitude altogether and appears sexier! And as one of those fortunate or unfortunate “about-to-be” bald guys, such a statement may make you happy. But in case you want to resolve the fundamental grounds to premature baldness and are on the look-out of its remedy, you’ve just come in at the right place! This article is thus into advocating some of the very basic reasons supporting baldness and its subsequent remedy.

“It’s all in the genes”! Yes, genetic factors are one of the prevailing causes of hair loss in men! Several studies and research works have proved it to be a hereditary hitch. Commend cure: homeopathy medication.

Are you suffering from too much stress or strain at work? If so, then it’s high time that you check all your tensions and stresses and strains. Because it has been medically proved that stresses and strains are the prime culprits to hair loss.

Go for a thorough medical checkup to diagnose diabetic or thyroid problems.
Prolonged illness or even a major surgery or certain medications pertains to hair loss.
Untreated fungal infections in the scalp may also lead to hair loss.
Sensitivity to dihydrotestosterone – the male hormone in the scalp is known to case alopecia, more commonly referred to as the male pattern baldness.
The last yet not the least factor – your age! With age you’ll start losing your hair and that’s the rule of the nature.

Prevention is certainly better that cure; and as such it’s recommended that you follow a regular regimen to maintain the health of your hair, than start going running after remedies and digging out solutions after losing it.
