How To Make Your Own Hair Loss Treatment Formula

In ones lifetime it is normal to lose about 100 hairs per day, but under normal conditions these hairs grow back. When you start to experience more loss than that, then thinning of the hair begins and does not stop unless you do something about it.

Hair loss for men and women can come about for many different reasons. It can be a hereditary condition known as Androgenic Alopecia. Basically this means that testosterone levels are too high. Many families that have a parent that is partially or fully bald may or may not inherit this condition.

Other reasons for hair loss can come about due to poor diet, excessive perms or dying the hair or long use of poor quality shampoos and rinse that can clog the pores. Hormonal imbalances, aging, radiation, illness and toxicity may also be contributing factors.

There are different treatment options that a doctor can prescribe or you can go to your local drug store and get over the counter medications, and for some, hair transplants may be the way to go.

But if you are like the growing number of people that want a safe, workable alternative to medications, then this homemade salve may be just the thing for you.

The ingredients for this salve are;
1 tbsp warmed olive or jojoba oil
1 tbsp honey
Several drops of liquid herbal saw palmetto, sage and (rosemary if you have dark hair) (lemon for light hair)
1 tsp of cinnamon

1)Warm the mixture like a hot oil treatment, and massage into scalp where hair is thinning (double batch for whole scalp).
2)Leave on for 15 minutes. For best results, use a shower cap to keep the scalp warm and to prevent drips. Saran wrap also works well.
3)Rinse and then use a gentle shampoo to get all the mixture out of your hair.

You should notice right away how soft your hair is, like you’ve just done a professional hot oil treatment.

Olive oil taken on a daily basis has been shown to produce silky hair and soft skin. According to Adele Davis, a well known nutritionist, people on low or no fat diets, such as models, need the good fat such as olive oil to change dry hair and skin into being soft and beautiful. This is because olive oil is very high in menstruated fat and low in saturated fat. It also contains vitamins A, D and E. It can be used to make homemade topical creams that assist in softening skin and are helpful in healing wounds. Taken orally or topically, olive oil is beneficial.

Honey is one of nature’s pure gifts. Not only is it a natural sweetener but has beneficial nutrients such as B vitamins, vitamin C, calcium, potassium, iron, sodium but it also has enzymes and amino acids. Honey does not go bad. In a recent archeological dig, a 2000 year old clay jar was found with honey in it that was just as fresh as the day it was put in. It was also discovered that viruses, bacteria, germs in general, do not survive in honey and it is therefore a fantastic anti-microbial. Honey converts to a food grade hydrogen peroxide and when applied to the skin, in combination with any body fluids and the other ingredients, will oxygenate the skin.

Saw Palmetto, Sage and Rosemary are herbs that also assist in preventing hair loss and possible regrowth. As a matter of fact, Saw Palmetto is a natural ingredient that is found in many prescription or over the counter hair growth products. Saw Palmetto is also an herb that is widely used to assist the prostate and ovarian health.

Internal feeding is every bit as important and probably more than topical treatments alone. A diet high in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, proteins such as fish, eggs and chicken and good oils will have an overall better health benefit for you. Regular exercise and a once or twice a week and natural hot oil treatments should do wonders for your hair and scalp.
