Get rid of those expensive, chemical-leached hair products, and say hello to natural remedies. There is nothing like making the most of what nature has to offer.
1. Onion Juice for hair growth
This remedy is regarded as one of the most effective and oldest ones. The reason is that it contains sulfur that boosts collagen production in the tissues and helps in hair re-growth. Do not let its strong smell keep you from using it, because it goes off after one rinse.
How to use Onion Juice for your hair?
To try this remedy, cut a few slices of onion, squeeze out its juice (either by mashing it or grating it), and apply it on your scalp for about 10-15 minutes. Let it work its magic and then rinse it off with a mild shampoo. A quick tip: You can substitute this with potato juice as well.
2. Coconut Milk for natural hair growth
According to Dr. Blossom Kochhar, Chairperson, of Blossom Kochhar Group of Companies, the most effective remedy for natural hair growth is the use of coconut milk because it is rich in iron, potassium, and essential fats. Her remedy is “take coconut milk from a fresh coconut (do not purchase the coconut milk – take it out meticulously from a fresh coconut). To it add half a squeeze of lemon, and 4 drops of essential lavender oil. Mix it thoroughly and apply it on your scalp, leave it on for 4-5 hours, and then rinse it off.”
3. Apple Cider Vinegar – This vinegar gently cleanses the scalp and maintains the pH balance of the hair thereby accelerating hair growth. Start for making a diluted solution by mixing 75ml of it in one liter of water for a larger batch or 15 ml of it in a cup of warm filtered water for a smaller batch. To apply this solution, use it as a final rinse after washing your hair. This will also give your hair an added shine and boost hair growth.
