Sharing is caring!

Hi guys,

Are you still struggling with hair loss problems?

Since I started Reader’s Queries Series here. Hardly goes any day when I don’t receive a message from somebody asking me for a good hair loss remedy  and natural hair regrowth tips that will help to achieve the lost hair volume. If you have been following me for a while you already know my hair fall story where I shared how I overcame my tremendous hair fall. But since it’s been more than 2 years since I wrote that, I thought its time for an updated version.

15 Things I Did To Control My Hair Fall And Regrow My Lost Hair

If you have been my Instagram buddy, then you know I was sick for about a month recently. Hence, I faced heavy hair fall and lost a lot of my hair volume. My volume and hair quality deteriorated too.

So here are the few things that I did to stop my hair loss and regrow my lost hair naturally. I honestly hope you benefit from this in some way.  So let’s begin!

1.Find The Root Cause Of Hair Fall

The first and the foremost important thing to do is to find out the culprit behind your hair loss. If you  know the root cause of your problem than half the battle is won. It makes the solution easier and more doable.

Here are 10 reasons that might make you lose your hair

Following are some of the very common reasons that you might experience triggered hair loss:

• Seasonal Change
• Unhealthy scalp
• Hormonal changes/imbalance
• Fallen sick lately
• A reaction of certain hair product
• Using a lot of harsh treatments like hair coloring, hair straightening, smoothing
• Using a lot of heat on your hair for styling
• Improper diet
• Less intake of water and many others.

Like for me, it was sickness and weakness. So along with all the things listed below I made sure to take care of my health and eat better.

2. Hot Oil Treatment

First thing that I did after finding my root cause was to massage my hair regularly with the right oils.

DIY Hair Oil For Hair Fall Control

If you are facing hair fall, then the best oil would be take organic cold pressed coconut oil, castor oil and Rosemary essential oils that’s it. These three ingredients work like a charm to solve all your problems.

3. Give Your Hair Some Steam

I know, I always start my articles with these two but these are damn effective.

After you oil your hair with the right hair oil for your hair type you need to give a little steam to it before washing. Steam ensures that the oil penetrates better and it helps to stimulate the blood circulation. This in turn is extremely beneficial for your hair’s overall health.

Give steam for at least 15 minutes before shampooing your hair. I use the Thermal steam cap for that but you can also use hot towel method for steaming.

4. Use The Shampoo That Aids Your Hair fall

I personally prefer using a shampoo that is free of chemicals like sulfates SLS, parabens and other such harsh chemicals especially when I am facing hair fall. I either prefer making my own egg shampoo at home or using a herbal shampoo that will help me with my hair fall.

But if you are currently set on a shampoo that is working very well for your hair and you are not ready to switch but want it to work for your hair fall just add three drops of Rosemary Essential oil to your shampoo and then use it. Trust me on this when I say your shampoo will help you to control your hair fall.

5. Use Conditioner That Is Silicone Free

I personally minimized the usage of conditioners especially the ones that contain silicones. These actually sit on top of your hair shaft and clog the pores which hampers your hair health. So I switched to natural deep conditioners or hair masks.

I used natural deep conditioners like honey and banana mask for my conditioning needs. I also use aloe vera gel mixed with few drops of argan oil and applied it as my conditioner kept it for 10 minutes and then washed it off.

8. Hair Detox Is The Key To Solve All Your Hair Problems

when we use oils with Mineral oil or hair products with chemicals like silicones, alcohol and what not. They leave a  layer of build up on our hair that ultimately results in hair fall. It makes your hair unable to breathe and your entire hair health is hampered.
