Hair is not essential to life, but when it thins or falls out, it can be very aesthetically pleasing. For women, seeing combs and brushes covered with loose hair can be psychologically distressing.
Hair is formed in small pockets of skin called follicles. The upward growth at the base of the hair follicle, called the papilla, actually produces hair when a special group of cells convert amino acids into keratin, the type of protein that makes up hair. The proportion of these protein "building blocks" determines hair growth. With an average growth rate of about 1.2 cm per month, it grows fastest in women between the ages of 15 and 30.
Lettuce: A pint of lettuce mixed with spinach juice daily helps promote hair growth.
Mustard Oil and Henna Leaves: Mustard oil cooked with henna leaves can help promote healthy hair growth. Boil about 250ml of mustard oil in a tin bowl. Gradually add about 60 grams of henna leaves to this oil until they are soft and burning in the oil. Strain the oil through a cloth and store it in a bottle. Regular massaging with this oil will enrich your hair.
Indian Gooseberry: Gooseberry oil is made by boiling dried gooseberry pieces in coconut oil and is considered a valuable hair growth stimulant to promote hair growth.
Onions: Onions have also been found to help treat patchy hair loss. They increase the production of collagen tissue and thus support hair regrowth.
