How to Treat Your Hair Falling Problem

Losing seventy to eighty hair daily is quite normal. A greater loss can be due to high fever or ill-health. If you suspect that your hair loss is more than normal, see a doctor. However, anything that makes hair healthy will contribute to its growth.

Also include Vitamin B in your diet. The best source of this is brewer's yeast. Take up to six tablets daily.
Minerals including iron and copper (found in meat and leafy green vegetables) and iodine (of which the best source is sea food), are important for the health of your hair. Iodine helps improve circulation of blood in the scalp.

Hair Problems with Dandruff

Dandruff is a condition characterized by excess scalp cells coming off in flakes, and can have many causes.
It may occur with either a dry or greasy scalp, and may be due to heredity, environment or diet.
On a dry scalp, it may be due to a diet deficient in protein. When on a greasy scalp, it may be due to the over-production of sebum or 'natural oil', producing flaking on the scalp. Dandruff is simply the skin which flakes off the scalp, but the shedding has been accelerated for some reason. This hair condition can spread to the face if it is not treated.
Acute dandruff (which can also result in hair loss) needs medical attention. Consult a trichologist (hair specialist) or your doctor. Ordinary mild dandruff can, however, be effectively treated with home remedies.
It is most essential to keep your hair clean. Your brush, comb, hair-pins etc. must be frequently washed or else you will re-infect your scalp each time you use them. Yes, dandruff is infectious. Remember never to borrow or lend your combs and brushes.

Easy Home Remedies for Skin and Hair Care

Herbs have been used for centuries to cleanse, moisturize, heal, and beautify the skin and hair. Early Egyptians protected themselves against the ravages of the sun and aging by anointing their bodies with oils infused with rose petals and myrrh. In ancient Rome, the renowned physician Galen blended olive oil, beeswax, herbal extracts, and water to create the first skin cream. His recipe still forms the basis for moisturizers made today. Herbs have traditionally been combined with other natural ingredients such as honey, oats, almond oil and fragrant essential oils to soften and soothe dry or irritated skin, stimulate circulation and cell regeneration, and eliminate toxins and the blemishes they cause.

For optimal skin and hair health, as well as your overall wellbeing-avoid body-care products that contain synthetic chemicals. In this century, mass-market-oriented cosmetics manufacturers have replaced natural substances with less expensive synthetic ingredients. Instead of delicate almond oil, for example, a conventional moisturizer is likely to contain mineral oil, a petroleum by-product that clogs pores. Soothing skin toners such as rosewater and witch hazel have been replaced with harsh chemicals such as acetone the active ingredient in nail-polish remover. In fact, a wide range of well-known cancer-causing chemicals such as formaldehyde and talc are routinely used in commercial cosmetics. Not only can these chemicals cause dryness, irritation, and allergic reactions, but your skin (including your scalp) is more than just a covering for your body-it is, in fact, your largest organ and readily absorbs about 60 percent of any substance that is applied to it. The most healthful and prudent approach is to choose your body-care products as carefully as you choose the foods you eat.
