How to strengthen hair to prevent falling out?

There are many reasons for the deterioration of the condition of the hair, they can be enumerated for a long time and tediously, and besides, it is easier to spoil the hair than to maintain its beauty. Today we will talk about specific actions and remedies for strengthening hair. Strengthening hair is a rather difficult task, since it requires a systematic approach, a lot of time and you will not notice the result immediately.

Improve scalp blood circulation

If you want to strengthen your hair, the first step is to improve blood circulation and tone your scalp. There are several ways to improve blood circulation to the scalp. The very first and easiest way is scalp massage, it is best to do it with your fingertips, on the Internet there are many schemes and videos on how to do massage correctly, after watching which you will be able to massage yourself. But there is simply a huge difference when you give yourself a massage and when a professional massage therapist does you. I recommend that you at least once do a course of massage for the scalp with a professional massage therapist.

A good helper for improving blood circulation massager "Goosebump antistress"It relaxes very well, relieves headaches, tones the scalp.

A nicotinic acid. A nicotinic acid dilates blood vessels and thereby enhances the nutrition of the hair follicles. The course of nicotinic acid lasts one month, it must be rubbed into the scalp every day on clean, damp hair, one ampoule is enough for one time (you can buy it at the pharmacy).

But, nicotinic acid is a medical drug, and it has contraindications, if high blood pressure, it is better not to use it. If after the procedure a headache, itching of the scalp or a rash appears, this means that the drug is not suitable for you or an individual intolerance, also use nicotinic acid carefully if you have sensitive scalp.

We select vitamins for hair

Today, it is practically impossible to have healthy hair without additional nutrition, there are many reasons for this: lifestyle, nutrition, bad habits, ecology, and this list can be continued for a long time. Hair loss is called the problem of the 21st century, and this disease is 10-15 years younger.

Our hair, like our body, needs micro-macronutrients, vitamins and other nutrients that are needed for the health of our body as a whole. Sometimes the body does not have enough nutrients from food and, moreover, it is no secret to anyone that today's fruits and vegetables do not contain the amount of nutrients that our body needs every day. In addition, diets, constant restrictions on food, lead to the fact that even if nutrients enter the body, they are sent to more important organs, and they go to the hair last.

When choosing vitamins for hair, be sure to look at the composition, the richer it is in vitamins, trace elements, fatty acids, amino acids and extracts from plants, the more benefit it will be for the hair.There should be B vitamins, biotin, vitamin C, iron, zinc, magnesium, calcium iodine, silicon. Usually, it is recommended to drink pharmacy vitamin complexes for at least three months to see the result.

Choosing a healthy diet for hair

A balanced diet will help restore strength and health to your hair. This does not mean that you need to give up your favorite foods, just try to eat at least one healthy hair product every day.

Try to drink 1.5-2 liters of cold, clean water per day, not juices, compotes, but water in small portions, 20 minutes before meals or 40 minutes after meals.

  • oily sea fish. Omega-3 fatty acids are present in sea fish, which are necessary for the health of the scalp (regulates the secretion of the sebaceous glands);
  • nuts of all kinds. It doesn't matter what kind of nuts you eat - walnuts, Brazilian, almonds, cashews or some others, the main thing is to eat them regularly. Nuts have a wealth of nutrients for our hair;
  • seasonal vegetables and fruits. Hair is in great need of substances that are found in vegetables and fruits;
  • carrots dressed with oil (olive, sesame);
  • dairy products. Nutritionists say that dairy products are necessary for a person every day, they contain the proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, micro and macro elements, amino acids we need;

Folk remedies for strengthening hair

Well, as for folk remedies for hair, there is where to roam, I think everyone has a grandmother or a relative who uses folk remedies and does not know grief. Although this is a double-edged sword, on the one hand, we grease the scalp and hair with products that we know and are confident in their benefits, but on the other hand, we can make it even worse than it is. For example, if hair falls out and the scalp becomes oily, then you should not use burdock oil, because it clogs the pores, the scalp does not breathe and the hair begins to fall out even more. Or, for example, if you diligently use a mustard mask or with tincture of red capsicum, you can dry out the scalp and make it sensitive. What am I leading to? Besides, everything should be in moderation, and any doctor will tell you this.

I offer several proven recipes from traditional medicine:

A decoction of burdock or nettle. Nettle contains in excess of potassium, pantothenic acid, chlorophyll, iron, calcium, protein, B vitamins, which really strengthen hair. And of course burdock, which is famous for its strengthening properties. For the broth, you must first brew nettle or burdock and let it brew. For example, if you wash your hair in the morning, then the broth can be cooked in the evening. How to rinse? For the best effect, you need to strain the broth into a container and after shampooing, when you have done all the manipulations, including conditioner or a mask, you need to lower your hair and head so that the scalp reaches as much as possible to the broth and hold it for 5-10 minutes. Plus, when you keep your head down, blood circulation will additionally increase, it will be like yoga asanas)))). Such rinsing can be done after each wash and after a month, you will no longer be able to wash your hair without a decoction, the hair will be very different when you rinse it and when not.

Firming mask. Clay is an excellent strengthening, cleansing and toning agent for hair; it has been proving its usefulness in the cosmetic world for more than one year.

  • 1 tablespoon of clay (blue, white, gray);
  • 1/2 tablespoon of water (boiled), or mineral water, or a decoction of herbs (nettle, chamomile);
  • 1 yolk;
  • 1/2 tablespoon honey
  • 3-5 drops of bay essential oil (rosemary, ylang-ylang, tea tree, pine, cinnamon).

The mask is done before washing your hair. Dilute the clay with water until the consistency of sour cream, add the rest of the ingredients. Apply the mask to the hair roots and insulate, for about 20-30 minutes. Then wash your hair as usual, but using a mask or balm for hair length, otherwise the hair will be coarse. It is enough to do this mask once a week.

Hair growth stimulating mask

Vitamin mask. Hair after this mask is immediately transformed, becomes soft, manageable, silky and hair loss is significantly reduced.

  • 2 tablespoons of natural hair balm;
  • 1 ampoule of niacin;
  • 1 ampoule of aloe extract;
  • 1 ampoule of vitamin B12;
  • 1 ampoule of vitamin B1;
  • 3-5 drops of vitamin A and E in oil.

We wash my head with a gentle shampoo (without sulfates and silicones), it is better to take a neutral one, for sensitive scalp. Dry your hair with a towel for a few minutes. We mix all the ingredients of the mask and apply first to the scalp, and then distribute to wet hair along the entire length, we insulate it, you can also warm it up with a hairdryer for the best effect. We keep the mask for one hour and wash it off with shampoo, it is enough to do it once a week.

For a full course of hair restoration and strengthening, 10 procedures are enough. The first 5 masks are done once a week and 5 more masks are done every two weeks.

Cosmetics for hair strengthening

Today the cosmetic market offers many decent hair strengthening products. They cannot go like the main strengthening remedies, but they will quite help you, with an integrated approach (treatment), to achieve the desired result. Let's start to disassemble all the tools in the order of their use.

Scrub for the scalp. If you want healthy hair, it starts with a healthy scalp. The scrub is needed in order to cleanse the scalp of dead scalp cells, to clear the pores so that they breathe, so that nutrients from subsequent products will better flow to the hair roots. The use of peeling has a number of advantages, which you can read about in the article Choosing a scrub for the scalp, where it is described in detail why peeling of the scalp is needed and how to do it correctly, as well as scrubs from different manufacturers and price categories were studied.

Healing shampoo. A special shampoo, which is designed to strengthen or against hair loss, is distinguished by the presence of active ingredients based on plant extracts. In addition to plant extracts, manufacturers add special patented complexes, vitamins, minerals that strengthen hair and stimulate growth. You can make a special strengthening shampoo at home according to the trichologist's prescription, which helps to cope with hair loss:Shampoo for hair loss (according to the trichologist's prescription).

Hair masks. The mask is more intended for caring for the length of the hair, because in the pursuit of strengthening, do not forget to take care of the length and especially the ends of the hair. If your hair is long, apply a mask or conditioner to your hair after each wash. But there are also scalp masks, many manufacturers now make such lines for hair care.

Toners and ampoules for hair strengthening.As for tonics and ampoules, they are just concentrated, aimed at a specific action and are designed to fight hair loss, promote hair strengthening and growth.
