There are several factors that cause hair loss, but there are also ways you could be preventing hair loss from occurring in the first place. Little things you may not think of could mean the difference between you having a full head of hair, or you losing your hair.

You can mix yourself some solutions to help with preventing hair loss. If you take two teaspoons of caster oil, two teaspoons of amla and shikakai powder, powdered fenugreek seeds, two teaspoons of neem paste and two eggs, you can apply the paste to your scalp and hair. This paste will need to be left on for about 45 minutes, and then you can wash it off with a mild shampoo.

If dandruff is part of the problem, you can massage the hair with warm coconut oil and apply the juice of one lemon to the scalp. Grind about 550 grams of methi seeds, mix in two eggs and apply this on your scalp. Leave it on for thirty minutes, and shampoo with an anti-dandruff shampoo. For the final rinse, take warm water and add the juice of one lemon to it. You should do this twice a week to wash the hair of dandruff.

Scalp diseases from bacterial or fungal infections can lead to hair falling out. Get medical help for any persistent hair infections and keep your hair clean and dandruff free to the best of your abilities.

What You Eat Reflects on Your Hair

When preventing hair loss from occurring, it is good to know what you eat will reflect on your hair. Your hair needs proteins, vitamins and minerals and so plenty of fruits, vegetables and milk should be in your diet. Foods that are green, leafy vegetables, fresh fruit salads, coconut, lean meat, poultry, fish, eggs, nuts, yogurt, almonds and cottage cheese will all add strength to your growing hair and will add a natural shine.
Make sure you drink at least eight glasses of water, herbal teas and unsweetened fruit juice. Try not to drink as much regular tea and coffee because they increase the drainage of water and important nutrients are hampered because there isn’t as much absorption of the minerals that are crucial for healthy hair. Alcoholic beverages can also be a major factor that can get in the way of preventing hair loss.

Also make sure you get plenty of exercise because exercise will promote circulation and other essential requirements for healthy hair.
