Natural healing for hair loss 

Healthy hair is the body's most beautiful ornament but hair loss and related problems could quickly and easily ruin it . Hair is a non-living tissue, made up mainly of a fibrous protein called keratin-the same material found in your fingernails and toenails.

The living part of the hair below the surface of the scalp, called follicle, are responsible for supplying these dead cells to keep our mane flowing. At the base of the follicle is a cluster of living cells called the papilla, which eventually forms hair. Next to the follicle is the sebaceous gland that actually keeps the hair shiny and looking vibrant. Excessive sebum activity can make hair unduly oily while lack of sebum activity can make it dry and lifeless.

The health of your hair requires a plentiful supply of nutrient-rich blood to nourish the hair follicles in the scalp, from which new hair sprouts. On average, hair grows about half an inch a month.

Hair loss can be triggered off by various reasons, internal diseases, reaction to drugs, dietary deficiencies, scalp diseases, menopause, childbirth, are common causes, which lead to a loss of essential nutrients and minerals from the scalp. Another cause of hair loss that is usually overlooked is hair damage. Excessive stretching and tugging with hard combs and styling appliances, exposure to extreme heat, regular use of rollers and blow drying, perming and colouring lead to this problem.

How female-pattern hair loss is different from male-pattern hair loss

Alopecia is the medical term for hair loss or baldness in an area of the body where hair is normally present. Usually, it refers to loss of scalp hair. Two patterns of hair loss are female-pattern baldness (general thinning with moderate loss at the hair line and crown) and male-pattern baldness (receding hair line with moderate to extensive loss at the crown).

In males, hair loss occurs in a typical pattern with thinning and then bald spots from the forehead area and on top of the head. This type of balding usually starts at the temples and then will gradually recede to form an "M" shape on the head. The hair on the top of the head will start to thin out. Over time, the male is left with a horseshoe-shaped pattern of hair around his head. The hair that remains in the balding areas starts out as long, thick, and pigmented and changes into fine, unpigmented sprouts that grows at a slower rate. If a man begins losing his hair during his mid-teen years, there is a good chance he will become completely bald on top of his head.

In female pattern hair loss, when the affected hair is shed, the root grows one in its place that is shorter. Eventually it becomes an invisible "peach fuzz". Genetically, hair loss can come from either parent's side of the family. Female pattern hair loss may begin as early as puberty. In these cases if there are signs of hormone imbalance, such as excess facial or body hair, a hormone evaluation should be done. Hormonal changes are a common cause of female hair loss.

Female-pattern baldness is also caused by aging, genetic susceptibility, and levels of endocrine hormones known as androgens. This type of balding usually begins around the age of 30 and becomes more noticeable at age 40, and can be more evident after menopause.  Females may also suffer hair loss due to styling treatments and twisting or pulling of the hair; alopecia areata, an immune disorder temporarily causing patchy areas of total hair loss; oral medications; and certain skin diseases. 

Taking good care of your hair will reap its own rewards, remember, hair is like your fingernails and it must be treated gently if you want it to stick around. The herbs used in this formulation are chosen as they have a history of promoting healthy hair growth, preventing the shedding of hair, restoring hair on balding areas and possessing a nervine quality. These herbs then promote healthy nerve life.
