It is often you hear more about men balding, but a lot of women suffer from hair loss as well… some of whom are in their early twenties; often due to stress and anxiety related alopecia.
There are actually many different types of hair loss and whilst some can be prevented and/or treated, some hair loss is genetic and there’s very little we can do about it other than to consider surgical hair implants.
Nowadays, there are the increasingly popular hair transplant operations that can very effective but also expensive. If you wish not to take such a drastic step such as surgery this blog post is 100% dedicated to three ways to help you keep a healthy head of hair.
Reduce Stress
Stress plays a huge role in the health of your hair. The mind affects the body, and if your stress levels get way out of hand, you may start seeing physical symptoms such as baldness in the form of stress induced alopecia.
Stress is part of life. But if it gets to the point where it is filling you every day, you need to find ways to cope that help reduce the stress in your life or better manage that stress so that it’s not affect your health.
Activities such as yoga and mindfulness meditation work for a lot of people whilst others require something more aggressive such as kickboxing or exercise boot camp to blast away the stress. Take time to figure out what works best for you as it’s imperative to your overall health and wellbeing that you find a way to release, reduce and manage the stress in your life.
Use a Decent Shampoo
If you are looking to create more volume in your hair and minimize any chances of hair loss, caffeine-based shampoos are said to help! Caffeine is a natural stimulant which is known to stimulate hair follicle growth and increase peripheral blood flow to the scalp.
Secondly, aloe vera nourishes the dermis layer of your scalp and can penetrate deep down into the hair follicle itself – meaning you will be providing the optimum nutrition required to create strong and healthy hair.
Massage Your Scalp
I personally love a good head massage. Any time I am getting a shampoo at the hair dresser, that is easily my favorite part. A regular Indian Head Massage can help relieve stress and tension within your scalp and the muscles around your skull; all while stimulating the cells responsible for healthy hair growth.
