Hair Loss can be Treated

Hair loss affects people at different ages and could be temporary or permanent. Whether hormonal, hereditary or medical, there are several reasons for hair loss. Exposure to pollution is also one more contributing factor in these times, towards hair loss. Excessive use of styling products too can lead to dry hair and cause damage to the hair follicles. Whatever the reason, hair loss is a condition that affects self-esteem and loss of confidence.

TYPES OF HAIR LOSS

Involutional alopecia: In this condition, hair becomes thin with age. Over a period of time, hair density decreases too.

Alopecia areata: Here, hair loss occurs all of a sudden, causing balding in patches mostly in young adults and children.

Androgenic alopecia: Also known as male baldness, hair loss can occur from the 20’s itself. Hair from the frontal scalp and crown starts disappearing.

Scarring alopecias: This leads to permanent loss of hair. If hair is tied very tight or pulled, it can result in hair loss.

Telogen effluvium: In this condition, hair on the scalp sheds and thins over time.

Spa Treatments For Hair Loss

Aromatherapy: A variety of essential oil blends can be used to strengthen the hair follicle. This ensures hair grows faster and brings back shine. Of all the oils, lavender oil stimulates hair growth. Another essential oil that increases blood circulation is peppermint oil. For thickness of hair, opt for rosemary oil. It has tremendous benefits, including calming.

Steam treatment: Steaming moisturises and strengthens the hair. The process also opens hair follicles for better absorption of oils and gives a relaxing effect.

Massage: Acupressure and scalp massage provides amazing results. It relieves tension and results in stimulating the hair follicle which in turn leads to hair growth.

Stimulating conditioner: Use a shampoo or conditioner with natural ingredients to stimulate hair follicles and strengthen hair growth.

Although people often leave this condition untreated, there are several solutions available to take care of hair loss. Let’s take a look at few of the treatments:
