Stimulate Hair Growth Naturally

For those who want long, shiny, beautiful hair, there are several shampoos and conditioners available that claim to stimulate hair growth and leave it looking strong and healthy. However, they may, in reality, be completely ineffective. Fortunately, there are a number of natural remedies that really do stimulate hair growth, by improving the health of the hair follicles and improving the health of the hair shaft. Here are a few ways you can stimulate the growth of your hair, naturally:


Proper Diet for Hair Growth

The growth of your hair is primarily affected by the presence of nutrients in your scalp. The following dietary recommendations enhance hair growth:

Cut out fatty foods and alcohol. Alcohol damages the hair follicles in the scalp, leading to poor hair growth, so it is better to avoid alcohol if you want to have healthy hair. Fatty foods increase sebum production in the scalp, which increases the development of dandruff. When dandruff develops, the hair cannot grow properly and hair loss is likely. Since fatty acids are essential in the growth of hair, avoid saturated fats, and consume healthy oils such as vegetable and fish oils.

Increase intake of foods rich in iron, calcium and silica. These nutrients are responsible for the healthy growth of hair and nails. Foods high in these nutrients include leafy vegetables, seaweed, dried fruits, red meats, dairy products and nuts.

Increase protein in the diet.  Proteins breaks down into amino acids, which are the building blocks of the body. Proteins stimulate the growth of the hair by enriching the keratin in the hair shaft, making it stronger. Proteins are found in lean meat, nuts, eggs, milk, fish, legumes and tofu.

Increase vitamin intake. Vitamins A, C, and E, along with the B vitamins, are common ingredients in hair products and promise to make your hair longer and more beautiful. Instead of spending money on hair products, however, increase your intake of foods rich in these vitamins to naturally promote hair growth. Natural products for natural hair growth are fruits and vegetables.

Herbal Remedies for Hair Growth

Herbs are an effective way of naturally stimulating hair growth, so try these natural remedies to avoid harsh chemicals, as well as to save money:

  • Aloe Vera. Aloe Vera contains plant alkaloids that stimulate the growth of the hair. Apply Aloe Vera gel and leave in for 15 minutes. Rinse off with cold water.
  • Lavender oil. Lavender oil is not only soothing, but also nourishing as it stimulates the hair follicles leading to stronger, more beautiful hair. Add one drop of lavender oil to your shampoo or conditioner each time you wash your hair.
  • Ylang Ylang. Ylang Ylang is a wild flower found in tropical countries. Ylang Ylang works in a similar way to lavender and should also be added to your shampoo or conditioner each time you wash your hair.
  • Coconut oil. Coconut oil is another natural remedy that stimulates hair growth and is one of the most popular remedies for maintaining healthy hair. Apply coconut oil to your hair an hour before washing it. Coconut oil not only stimulates hair growth, but also improves the volume of the hair.

These natural remedies are even more effective than the commercial products that claim to add volume and leave you with longer hair. The hair normally grows every three months so you can maximize its growth using these natural remedies.
