Problems in the Hair

Our head is like a city. In this city, new hairs are born every day and old ones die. And many hairs continue to live. Like men, their life depends on the person’s health. Thus hair fall could either be normal or abnormal depending on your health status. So to have a good population of hair, you need to follow the same rules, viz. good eating and cleanliness.

Hair grows at the rate of about half an inch per month. When old hairs fall, new ones start growing in their place. This hair growth is not at all dependent on any hair oil you use. They all at best enhance look of the hair, but with adverse side effects.

Internal stress and tension is one of the reasons for your hair fall
Lack of adequate vitamins and minerals in the body is another cause
Tight tying of hair, helmets, more pins or hair bands also cause it
The more the hair fall, the more the tension. This also causes a cycle

Avoid shampoos
Do not use combs with narrow teeth
Do not tie the hair when they are not dry
Let the oil application be light

Use umbrella when you are for long under the sun
Keep your mood cheerful

The best remedies is that Massage the scalp with 2-3 drops of essential oil or a good vegetable oil. Apply curd to your hair once a week as a natural conditioner, and use a shampoo suitable for normal hair, since your hair seems oily
