Hair fall is one of the most common issues faced by most of us today. Reasons for it could be many. It could be due to stress or due to the weather or not being able to take out time to take care of our hair. The road to lustrous locks is long and hurdled with hair fall issues. There can be several factors contributing to this issue.
Nutritionist Anjali Mukerjee, shares health-related information on her Instagram profile on a daily basis, shared a few tips and tricks related to hair fall. In a new post, she addressed hair fall and posted two natural remedies to curb the issue.
Brahmi oil
Anjali wrote that Brahmi oil should be massaged on the scalp in a circular motion from the crown to the entire skull. The oil should be left on the scalp for minimum two hours, or preferably overnight. Brahmi oil helps in treating stress-induced hair fall. It also helps in preventing hair fall by blocking the DHT at the hair follicles. Brahmi oil also nourishes the hair by enhancing blood circulation in the scalp.
Aloe Vera
She wrote, “Aloe Vera has a similar chemical makeup to that of Keratin (the primary protein of hair).” She further added that the pulp from the stalk of the Aloe Vera should be extracted and applied to the scalp and hair. It should be allowed to be on the scalp for around 45 minutes, before rinsing with normal water. Anjali recommended Aloe Vera hair massage thrice a week. Aloe Vera helps in maintaining the shine of the hair and repairing the split ends. It also helps in breaking down dead skin on the scalp and prevents clogging of hair follicles.
