1. How to make changes to your hair care routine?

Making a couple of tiny changes to your daily routine can help reduce hair fall. Utilise a wooden wide-tooth comb to untangle your hair. You can use your usual brush after this. This will reduce breakage and hair loss from yanking. It is also vital to remember not to comb your hair when it is wet. Your hair is at its most vulnerable when wet, which raises the odds of breakage.

Another suggestion is to use your towel in the right way. Instead of aggressively trying to use your towel to dry your hair, and subjecting them to excessive force, gently squeeze excess moisture out of your hair with your towel and let it dry naturally. Attempt and switch to shampoos that are free of sulfates, silicones, and parabens to avoid loading your own scalp and hair with harsh substances that cause damage, making your hair brittle and more prone to breakage.

Wash your hair at least one time every three days with a gentle hair cleanser or shampoo to eliminate all of the accumulated dust, dirt, oil, and bacteria build-up. Keep it clean at all times to prevent hair drop from clogged follicles. It’s also important not to wash your hair more than thrice a week. Overwashing will strip your scalp and hair of natural oils that are essential for healthy hair growth.

Do not subject your hair to regular chemical treatments, excessive blow-drying, ironing, and colouring as it can lead to hair loss. If you colour or dye your hair and have been confronting hair fall problems, it would be a fantastic idea to have a brief break before you set any more chemicals on your hair. Research demonstrated that allergic contact dermatitis from hair dyes might be liable for increased hair loss.

2. Are you exercising enough?

You would be surprised at how much stress can result in hair loss. And nothing relieves stress in addition to physical activity does. Regular exercise such as yoga can go a long way in reducing anxiety and may help curb hair fall. Beauty comes from the mind and a healthy mind leads to healthy living. Therefore, it is crucial to maintain a balance in your life. Exercise boosts body health and promotes a strong hair growth cycle. It also increases the blood flow to scalp and promote circulation around the scalp, resulting in better hair growth. Work these eight simple, easy to do exercises into your daily regime for hair growth and good health.

3. Are you relying on supplements or medications?

There are lots of hair growth supplements that can help regrow hair and suppress hair fall. Even specific vitamin supplements go a long way in enhancing the health and volume of your hair loss. However, do not begin taking any supplements without consulting a healthcare practitioner. Minoxidil is among the very best drugs for hair loss, though it might have a side effect of hypertrichosis (abnormal quantity of hair growth over the body). Cyproterone acetate is just another powerful medication for hair loss in women, though it isn’t advisable for guys.

4. Hair Oil Treatment

There have been research reports claiming that oiling your hair overnight can really make a difference. Though you might not like the concept of sticky, greasy hair, the application of oils, like coconut, peppermint, and argan oils, can help your hair in the long run. Leaving your hair straightened overnight supplies enough time for every strand to be coated and for the scalp to find nourished. Dandruff and dead cells are loosened from the movement of the fingers and can be removed easily with shampoo the next day.

5. Hair Spa

Many salons offer hair spa remedies that are meant to strengthen, condition, and nourish your hair. These remedies are ideal for women who are busy and stressed. They not only enhance hair health but are also the perfect way to relax and destress. Listed below are the Advantages of hair spa therapy:

• It profoundly states your hair, treats split ends and repairs dry, damaged, and dull hair. Additionally, it helps remove dandruff.
• Hair spa therapy provides your scalp and hair with the essential nutrients needed for healthy hair growth.
• It helps fortify the hair follicles and revitalises the scalp, creating an ideal atmosphere for unhindered hair development.
• It prevents scalp ageing and improves blood circulation in the scalp using a stimulating massage.
• It helps remove impurities from your hair and scalp, preventing build-up and flaking, resulting in better hair health.
• The hair spa therapy provides relief from stress and tension.
• It deals with baldness or thinning hair by providing damaged cells in your scalp with extra energy to resume normal functioning. This can help stimulate hair growth and curb baldness/

6. Hair Transplantation

Hair transplantation is one of the curative methods for hair. It is achieved by simply taking donor hair and placing it where baldness occurs. A hair transplant is a procedure in which a plastic or dermatological surgeon moves hair to a bald area of the head. The surgeon usually moves hair from the back or side of the head to the front or top of the head. For FUT, a doctor would remove strips of tissue from the donor area, and, once extracted, cut these strips into individual follicular units. Tiny cuts are then made in the scalp for the follicular unit grafts to be carefully placed into, which can leave some scarring. FUE is the modern approach to hair transplants and is usually favoured by patients because it leaves less obvious scarring. For FUE, individual hair follicles are extracted directly from the patient’s donor area, which is typically the back of the neck, and then moved to the hair transplant site using a specialist micro surgical needle.

7. Laser Treatments

Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is growing in popularity as an effective hair growth treatment. It deals with hair loss or thinning hair by providing damaged cells in your scalp with extra energy to resume normal functioning. This can help stimulate hair growth and curb hair fall. Low-level laser therapy, also called LLLT, nourishes hair follicles by sending pulses of energy into inactive follicles. These pulses “spark” those dormant follicles back into a regrowth phase by kick-starting proper circulation and cellular respiration. LLLT is offered by Wellaholic as a standalone treatment but also as part of their WellaGrow Hair Regrowth regime.

8. Microneedling for Scalp

Microneedling involves the use of a skin roller with small needles that causes minor skin injuries. While used as an anti-ageing skin treatment, microneedling may also be a method of treatment for hair loss. There’s even evidence that it can help a special type of hair loss known as alopecia areata. There has been numerous research studies which shows the effectiveness of microneedling with Minoxidil for hair growth. Microneedling for Scalp, being a relatively new technique is offered by Wellaholic together with an Minoxidil programme.

9. Diet

When it comes to hair health, what you put in your own body is just as important as what you wear your hair. Maintaining a healthy and balanced diet becomes crucial after you notice hair fall. A wholesome diet will also help keep your hair moisturised and nourished, leading to lesser baldness, fewer split ends, and suppressed breakage. Think about adding more of these to your daily diet — carrots, oats, whole grains, brown rice, green leafy vegetables, citrus fruits, lentils, sweet potatoes, pumpkin seeds, legumes, nuts such as almonds and walnuts, flaxseed oil (Linseed oil) or ground flaxseeds, seafood like salmon and tuna that are full of omega-3 fatty acids, eggs, beans, legumes, as well as low-fat cheese.

Stay away from fatty foods and fizzy drinks while also cutting down on your consumption of carbs.

Managing hair loss can be difficult, but it isn’t impossible. With all the new technologies, age-old all-natural remedies, and a tweak to your hair care regimen, dealing with baldness can become more manageable. Talk to a dermatologist or trichologist that will suggest the ideal manner of treatment for you.
