1. Alter your diet
A sure shot way by which one can promote hair growth is to watch their diet. Every time you eat a chip or take a drag of a cigarette, you need to remember you are harming your body. Therefore, by keeping track of what you put into your mouth, you can help cleanse your system and help hair grow better. If you are overweight, you will need to control the amount of food and the kind of food you consume, and this will gradually reflect on your hair’s health.
2. Avoid using chemicals and changing brands
If there is any certain shampoo or serum that you have been using on your hair based on your hair expert’s opinion, do not change the brand suddenly. You might see multiple advertisements and promotions for shampoo that promote hair growth, or give you long luscious hair, don’t get tempted by these and fall for them. You might be subjecting your hair to stronger doses of chemicals. Instead opt for aloe vera or protein rich shampoo with a good conditioner to keep the nutrients intact and help the scalp get more blood.
There are shampoos which are made using walnut bark, or kelp oil that will help keep your scalp clean and stop the problems of thinning or balding. When you are done washing your hair, it will not be dry, but will have certain essential oils remaining in the strands to help them grow better.
3. Hormonal balances
Upon consulting your endocrinologist, you will be prescribed medication that will bring your hormones into control, and curb production of DHT. This will automatically aid in hair growth.
