Hair is the main
beauty part of the human body, if
your hairs are curly and black or brown so
you are a beautiful person and
all are attract with your personality so that the Hair of Head is main feature of your looks so
that every person want to maintain their
Hairs.
To keep your crowning glory in the best possible shape you
need to look after it with some thought of what it has to endure. We bemoan the
fact that our skin wrinkle and our muscles sag with age, yet we seldom think
about our hair that simply keep on growing regardless.
Some unfortunate people
do however suffer from hair-loss(alopecia)
at some stage of their life, and this could be contributed to a variety of
problems - from irreversible genetic factors handed down by your ancestors
(such as male pattern baldness also
called andro genetic alopecia (AGA)
which also involves hormones), to less permanent hair loss which could be due to
illness, fever, thyroid problems, radiation, poor circulation, malnutrition,
stress etc.
Some essential oils blended in a scalp
treatment is however good for balding, and some varying levels of success have
been reported. To have a look at the blend for treating alopecia and hair loss
Although essential oils
cannot claim to help with all ills that may befall your poor hair, some of them
have been used for centuries to help in making the most of hair and is reputed
to help for thinning hair.
These aromatic botanical
essences are used for more than their mere smell, and some have some great
therapeutic properties as well with some iridologists also believing
in their properties.
Even if you do not
believe in the positive way that essential oils could influence your general
health, the great smell alone is enough to consider including it in your daily hair care regime.Commercial products can
be in some cases be used and the essential oils mixed in with them - you could
for instance add
more zing to your shampoo by adding your selected oil.
When you use essential oils in shampoos, you will need
to dilute it to a suitable level as not to cause any irritation to the eyes.
Adding essential
oils to your shampoo is an easy way to increase the effectiveness of your
shampoo, but take care to select oils that are not irritants or that you might
be allergic to, since shampoos do have the habit of sometimes getting into your
eyes.
A good addition for hair care is normally
rosemary essential oil- to have a look at the properties of it.
Do not use a new essential oil in a shampoo
that you haven't tested - rather first do a skin patch test to determine if you
are allergic to the oil or not.

essential oils a try to help you with your hair loss, then you could look at oils
such as Cypress,
Lavender,Jojoba,Rosemary.

recommend that you consider using Rosemary, since it has
been used as a trusted compound in hair care for a long time. It, or any of the
above can be added to shampoo or can be blended (2 drops to 15 ml carrier oil)
and used as a compound to do a
scalp massage.
Dandruff
In the discipline of
essential oils and aromatherapy the following are used to help with dandruff is Cedar wood, Lavender, Patchouli, Rosemary, Tea tree oil.
These oils can be used as
a scalp massage (in the dilution
described above) or mixed with your shampoo, but if you are having a problem
with oily
hair
rather look at using tea
tree oil,
and with dry hair rosemary.
You could also make a
"floral water" or "hydrosol" of sorts, to use as a final
rinse. Take a plastic water bottle and add 10 drops of essential oil to 1 liter
of lukewarm water. Cap the bottle and shake well. Now take a coffee filter, and
filter the water through it and use the resultant slightly fragranced water as
a final rinse.
If you have never used a
specific essential oil, it may be a wise precaution to do a skin patch test beforehand to ascertain
if you have any allergic reaction to it.

grows up to 1.5 meters (4 feet) high with green-gray needle-shaped leaves and
pale blue/lilac flowers that bees just love and is originally from Asia, but is
now cultivated in France, Tunisia and Yugoslavia.The name is derived from the
Latin 'Rosmarinus' or 'sea dew', as it is rather fond of water. The Egyptians,
Hebrews, Greeks and Romans considered the herb as sacred and even in the Middle
Ages it was used to ward off evils spirits and used as a protection against the
plague. It was burnt in French hospitals during epidemics

Alopecia, baldness and hair
loss help for free
If we could claim to cure baldness, we would
be extremely wealthy, but since we can't, we aren't, yet some of these
home-made recipes can be of great help, and a very cheap alternative to the very expensive clinically
tested pharmaceutical product on the market, or the expensive products
promising overnight miracles.
Alopecia, the nice scientific sounding name
for hair loss and baldness happens for a
variety of reasons, and since some of these reasons, like your genetic
programming, cannot be helped
by any external lotions or creams, nor any supplements, it would be a waste
of time and money to spend a fortune on rubbing a variety of compounds into
your scalp, or to fill your body with equally expensive supplements.
Age also plays its part in the balding arena
and so do fevers, high stress levels, illness, thyroid problems etc.
In some cases, scalp
stimulation and supplements can help, and although we do not market
supplements, we do offer you some very affordable scalp stimulation lotions
that you can make yourself at home.
The one clinically tested lotion that stops
hair loss, developed from a drug used for high blood pressure is effective, but
it does have side effects, is very expensive and the results are not always all
that spectacular.
Since everybody has their own favorite
shampoo, we do not have a special shampoo recipe, but do suggest that you add
the following essential oils to your regular shampoo. It is however suggested
that you use a mild natural shampoo.
The dilution that you should use is as
follows, and please do not add more essential oil than specified, as it may
cause irritation.
·
100 ml shampoo mixed with
·
15 drops jojoba oil
·
8 drops carrot oil
·
7 drops rosemary oil
·
7 drops lavender oil
·
2 drops tea tree oil
You can use this shampoo as your regular
shampoo.
This stimulating lotion can be massaged into
the scalp in the morning, after washing and partly drying the hair. Massage
with care so as not to stretch or break the hair while massaging.
·
100 ml mix (50/50 of rosewater and distilled water)
·
15 ml apple cider vinegar
·
5 drops rosemary oil
·
6 drops jojoba oil
·
3 drops carrot oil
·
3 drops geranium oil
This mixture should be kept in the fridge and
will separate when standing, necessitating you to give it a good shake every
morning before applying about 2 teaspoons of the mixture.
For a once-a-week conditioning treatment, you
can apply the following oil blend and leave on for at least 30 minutes before washing
it off. When washing it off, apply some shampoo to the hair before you wet it,
to help remove the oil easily.
·
2 ml jojoba oil(40 drops)
·
8 drops evening primrose oil
·
2 drops geranium oil
·
2 drops palma rosa
This oil blend must be gently (repeat gently)
rubbed onto the scalp once a day at night before going to bed. Pay special
attention to the bald spots but work through your entire scalp.
·
3 drops rosemary oil
·
4 drops geranium oil
·
4 drops lavender oil
·
1 drop frankincense oil
·
4 drops cypress oil
·
2 drops cinnamon oil
·
2 drops juniper oil
Take one drop (1 drop only) per day and
massage into the scalp before going to bed. The best way to do it is to dispense
one drop onto your finger, then rub all your fingertips together to distribute
the oil, and then massage the scalp with your fingertips. This treatment must
be applied every day, without a single day being skipped.
This is one of the few times where we will
use neat (undiluted) pure essential oil on the skin, and you are advised to be
on the lookout for any skin irritation. Should
that occur immediately cease with the treatment.
Since essential oils can irritate the
mucus membranes you are strongly advised to thoroughly wash your hands
after applying this treatment, as to prevent accidental transference of the
neat oil into your eyes or other sensitive areas.
Eggs, yogurt and honey
are, at first glance, all components of a tasty breakfast—but they also happen
to be hair treatment ingredients, and affordable, all-natural ones at that. And
they're not the only ones. Did you know, for instance, that the oils in avocados
more closely resemble our own skin's oils than any product in the beauty aisle
does? Or that the mild acidity in lemon is an effective—and gentler—alternative
to chemical-laden products? Next time your locks need a lift, save money by
using one of these kitchen fixes.
8 Homemade Hair Treatments
For All Hair Types
"The
[raw] egg is really the best of all worlds," says Janice Cox, author of Natural Beauty at Home. The
yolk, rich in fats and proteins, is naturally moisturizing, while the white,
which contains bacteria-eating enzymes, removes unwanted oils, she explains.
To
Use: For normal hair, use the entire egg to condition hair; use egg
whites only to treat oily hair; use egg yolks only to moisturize dry, brittle
hair, Cox says. Use 1/2 cup of whichever egg mixture is appropriate for you and
apply to clean, damp hair. If there isn’t enough egg to coat scalp and hair,
use more as needed. Leave on for 20 minutes, rinse with cool water (to prevent
egg from “cooking”) and shampoo hair. Whole egg and yolks-only treatments can
be applied once a month; whites-only treatment can be applied every two weeks.
For Dull Hair
Styling
products (as well as air pollution) can leave a film that both saps moisture
and dulls shine—but dairy products like sour cream and plain yogurt can help
reverse this damage. "Lactic acid gently strips away dirt while the milk
fat moisturizes,"
To Use: Massage 1/2 cup sour cream or plain yogurt into damp hair and let
sit for 20 minutes. Rinse with warm water, followed by cool water, then shampoo
hair as you normally would. Treatment can be applied every other week.
For Itchy Scalp
To
fight flakes—brought on by poor diet, stress and climate, among other
factors—try a lemon juice and olive oil mixture in your hair. "The acidity
in lemon juice helps rid your scalp of any loose, dry flakes of skin, while the
olive oil moisturizes the skin on your head,"
To Use: Mix 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice, 2 Tbsp olive oil and 2 Tbsp water,
and massage into damp scalp. Let mixture sit for 20 minutes, then rinse and
shampoo hair. Treatment can be applied every other week.
For Limp or Fine Hair
To
add body to hair, reach for an unlikely beauty beverage: beer! The fermented
drink contains generous supplies of yeast, which works to plump tired tresses.
To
Use: Mix 1/2 cup flat beer (pour beer into a container and let it sit
out for a couple of hours to deplete carbonation) with 1 tsp light oil
(sunflower or canola) and a raw egg. Apply to clean, damp hair, let sit for 15
minutes, then rinse with cool water. Or add flat beer only to a spray bottle
and spritz onto dry hair. "When the liquid evaporates, the remaining
protein residue (from the wheat, malt or hops) continues to strengthen and
structure hair".
For Dry or Sun-Damaged
Hair
Whatever
your hair-dehydrating demon—hard water, sun overexposure, your trusty flat
iron—nature's sweetener can help. "Honey is a natural humectant, which
means it attracts and locks in moisture”.
To
Use: Massage approximately 1/2 cup honey into clean, damp hair, let sit
for 20 minutes, then rinse with warm water. You can also add 1 to 2 Tbsp olive
oil to loosen the honey for easier application. For extremely sun-damaged hair,
trying mixing honey with 1 to 2 Tbsp of a protein-rich ingredient, like avocado
or egg yolk, which will help replenish the keratin protein bonds that UV rays
attack. Treatment can be applied once a month.
For Oily or Greasy Hair
"Used
properly, [cornmeal or cornstarch] is an inexpensive way to remove oil and
grease,”.
To Use: Pour 1 Tbsp cornmeal or cornstarch into an empty salt or pepper
shaker and sprinkle onto dry hair and scalp until you’ve used it all. After 10
minutes, use a paddle hairbrush to completely brush it out. Treatment can be
applied every other day.
For Frizzy Hair
Home
beauty experts swear by avocado—and not just to repair damaged hair. Its oils
(which are light and moist like our own natural skin secretions) and proteins
boast the best combination of nutrients for smoothing and weighing down unruly
hair.
To
Use: Mash up half an avocado and massage into clean, damp hair. Let sit
for 15 minutes before rinsing with water. Amp up moisturizing power by
combining mashed avocado with 1 to 2 Tbsp of a hydrating ingredient, like sour
cream, egg yolks or mayonnaise. Treatment can be applied every two weeks.
For Residue-Ridden Hair
"Nothing
eats through product buildup like baking soda". Sodium bicarbonate
essentially breaks down anything acidic.
To
Use: Mix 1 to 2 Tbsp baking
soda with small amounts of water until a thick paste forms. Massage into damp
hair and let sit for 15 minutes. Rinse with water, then shampoo hair. Treatment
can be applied every two weeks.
