Stop Hair Fall N Get New Hairs
1)TAKE ONE TABLESPOON OF HONEY
CRUSH 2 TO 3 CLOVES OF GARLIC(LAHSOON) IN IT AND APPLY ON THE SCALP FOR 41 DAYS CONTINOUSLY.
2)BALDNESS:
Treatment is not necessary if you are comfortable with your appearance. Hair weaving, hairpieces, or change of hairstyle may disguise the hair loss. This is usually the least expensive and safest approach for male baldness.
There are two main drugs used to treat male pattern baldness:
Minoxidil (Rogaine) -- a solution that you apply directly to the scalp to stimulate the hair follicles. It slows hair loss for many men, and some men grow new hair. The previous degree of hair loss returns when you stop applying the solution.
Finasteride (Propecia, Proscar) -- a prescription pill that inhibits the production of the male hormone dihydrotestosterone. Like minoxidil, you are more likely to have slower hair loss than actual new hair growth. In general, it is somewhat more effective than minoxidil. The previous degree of hair loss returns when you stop taking the drug.
Hair transplants consist of removing tiny plugs of hair from areas where the hair is continuing to grow and placing them in areas that are balding. This can cause minor scarring in the donor areas and carries a modest risk for skin infection. The procedure usually requires multiple transplantation sessions and may be expensive. Results, however, are often excellent and permanent.
People have always been surprisingly gullible where their hair is concerned. Such was her vanity, Queen Victoria was driven to drink silver birch wine, made from the rising sap, because she believed it would cure her baldness. Even now in an image conscious age, when the masculine icon of the moment, footballer David Beckham, can voluntarily surrender his trademark dishevelled blond fringe for a shaven head, hair loss is refusing to become fashionable.
A heavy weight political writer went so far as to say that William Hague wouldn't get elected Prime Minister because of his baldness. Neil Kinnock, previously rejected for the post, agreed and he hasn't got much on top either. Jokes aside, consultant dermatologist Dr Andrew Messenger of the Royal Hallamshire Hospital, Sheffield, told NetDoctor: 'Although the great majority of men learn to live with it, I think everybody would prefer not to be bald. For a very small number of men, it becomes a big issue.'
It is often but not always younger men, he says, who are so alarmed by their hair thinning that they go to a doctor asking what can be done about it.
Most doctors believe that because the treatment options are so limited, balding men should think deeply before using any remedies. It isn't a life-threatening condition and it is easy to spend a lot of money unsuccessfully attempting to restore a full head of hair. But as Dr Messenger points out, it is a matter about how the man losing his hair feels, rather than how others think he ought to feel. His whole life can begin revolving around something that would be a small problem to the average bloke. Dr Messenger is quite clear about the possibilities. He says: 'There are only two ways to deal with baldness currently available in the UK which the evidence shows work to at least some extent.'
Minoxidil
Minoxidil is sold over the counter as a topical solution, to be applied twice a day, under the brand name Regaine. About two-thirds of the men who use it have some improvement in their hair growth, ranging from minimal regrowth to moderate to dense regrowth after four months of use. It depends on how bad the hair loss has been and how long it has been happening. It is not possible to forecast how effective minoxidil will be or who it will help. There is no evidence that it works better for younger men because of their age. They may get better results because their hair loss is not that severe and has only recently started but this would apply to a man in middle age too.
The regrowth of hair could be as much as 20 or 25 per cent of the existing hair. A higher strength version of the preparation, Regaine Extra Strength, has a slightly better effect. The first sign of new hair begins to show after two months and it peaks at around one year. In trials comparing the two strengths, Regaine Extra produced 43 per cent more regrowth than the regular strength after 12 months use.
Twice daily applications of minoxidil need to be continued for continued hair growth. Regrown hair may begin to disappear three to four months after stopping treatment and the balding process will start again.
'It can become a bit of a bind rubbing it into the scalp twice a day after it has stopped improving and you can't see anything happening,' said Dr Messenger. 'You also have to go on paying for it at the rate of about £25 per month.' The price depends on the strength and quantity of minoxidil being purchased. It is possible to get a triple pack, a three-month supply, over the counter for £59.95. On the Internet, it can cost as little as £10 a month when bought from the United States.
It is a safe drug and the only side effect is occasional irritation of the scalp and the growth of hair on other parts of the body which is not enough to worry men. However, it isn't known how minoxidil works. It was first used on patients with heart disease who reported an increased growth in their hair. This has led people to speculate that it may increase the blood supply to the hair follicles.
Some people have noticed that when they first use minoxidil, the loss of hair actually increases. Later, if the hair starts to regrow, it will probably be soft, downy and barely visible. However, with continued use of minoxidil, this new hair may become the same colour and thickness as the rest of your hair. It isn't known why it works for some people and not others.
Finasteride
Finasteride (brand name Propecia) is an oral treatment for male pattern baldness now available on private prescription in the UK. It works by inhibiting the action of an enzyme in the body called type II 5-alpha reductase. This enzyme is responsible for converting the male hormone testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a hormone that can damage hair follicles and lead to hair loss in men who are genetically sensitive to it.
Propecia is effective in about 80 per cent of men, though it may take three to six months of treatment before a decrease in hair loss or increase in hair density is noticed. Continued use is recommended to obtain the maximum benefit and this can be expensive, as doctors can only prescribe the medicine on a private prescription. The cost of the treatment is around £30 per month. If you stop taking the drug you are likely to lose any hair you have gained within 9 to 12 months.
Potential side effects of Propecia include some sexual problems, such as a decrease in sex drive and temporary impotence. Women cannot take the treatment, nor should they handle any crushed or broken Propecia tablets, as the active ingredient can cause feminisation of a male foetus in pregnant women.
Hair replacement grafts
Another approach to combating baldness is to transplant the hair from the back of the scalp where it usually grows abundantly in bald men, especially younger men. It is transplanted to the bald patch where it grows in the same manner as if it were still on the donor site. The minor operation is under local anaesthetic and can be done in several stages or in one mega session where thousands of hairs are involved.
The hair is now usually moved in micrografts - small groups of hairs - to get a more natural look. This is designed to avoid it resembling a conifer plantation or the doll's head effect. 'A good result depends entirely on the surgeon's skill,' says Dr Messenger. 'The cost will be in thousands rather than hundreds. I have seen some fairly good results but I don't think it ever looks completely natural. 'The side effects are the usual surgical risks of infection and scarring. The main problem is that the man may not be pleased with the results and unfortunately, he is stuck with it. There is no known way of reversing this procedure and he won't necessarily go bald again. The hairs will grow on in the same way as the hairs at the back of the head which most men keep forever. 'I wouldn't recommend surgery hair grafts to anybody. I would let them know it's available but that's all. I certainly wouldn't have it done myself. It is pretty bloody and traumatic,' said Dr Messenger.
Dr David Fenton, a consultant dermatologist at St Thomas's Hospital, London, said he thought men worried about their hair loss should be careful to stay away from any advertised services. 'Many of these people are offering treatments which have no scientific basis. Men wishing to restore their hair should stay well clear of them and get advice from doctors. Then they will be advised by people who are highly trained in their field, not salesmen with no medical background whatsoever.' He also feels that these men should be supported, given counselling and not belittled.
3)Home Remedies for Hair Loss
In general, hair loss is a condition that reflects the level of health of the person, although not a dangerous disease,
millions of people are desperately seeking a cure for hair loss, our society drives us to look healthy and young,
hair loss damages or looks and our self esteem, making us less sure of ourselves.
But why do some people suffer from hair loss, and others enjoy a full head of hair throughout their lives?
Usually we lose about 100 hairs per day, after a few months, a new hair grows out of the same follicle.
In some men, the new hair is thinner then the one before, when this one fall the next one is even thinner,
until eventually the follicle stops producing hair.
Women also suffer from hair loss as they age and reach menopause, though they don't lose as much hair as men.
Childbirth can cause hair loss. Mothers usually lose a lot of hair during a 6-month period after giving birth.
Other reasons for hair loss in men and women are; stress, infection, surgery, high fever, diets, over brushing,
syphilis, and tumors.
There are some drugs that claim to regrow hair, but they only achieve mild results and are full of side effects,
for example minoxidil (Rogaine) should not be taken by people with high blood pressure,
and it may cause acne on the forehead and back. Another is finasteride (Propecia) it can be taken orally (men only)
and causes sex problems, rash and if handled by a pregnant woman it can cause birth defects in the genital area of the fetus.
Take Vitamins A, B6, B12, Folic acid, biotin, and Vitamin C.
Caution:Too much Vitamin A can cause hair loss keep your intake less than 100,000 IU daily.
Take Silica in capsules one a day, makes hair stronger and thicker.
Rinse your hair with a mix of apple cider vinegar and sage tea this helps hair grow.
To improve blood circulation to the scalp take Ginkgo Biloba.
4)To cure falling hair you must first find out the cause...
Sometimes there is a temporary hair fall due to extended illness.
Hair fall is also initiated by intolerance to certain chemicals like hair dyes or even certain substances in shampoos.
Problems with the scalp, namely dandruff. may also result in one losing hair as the roots become weak.
eat healthy food drink lots of water and milk
Iron loss is cited as one of the causes for falling hair. One should takle vitamins regularly.
Baldness is something that can negatively affect ur personality and selfconfidence, i guess if u have lost a lot of hair then the best thing would be to consult a dermatoligist and go for the hair implantation treatment from a good surgeon. These lotions and pills are believed to have many side effects, so i wouldn't advise you to go for any such thing. Anyway, natural oils, like mentioned above may be used but if baldness is in ur family genes then iam afraid u'll have to go for surgery.
