So don't rush to the drugstore, but rather get ready to go out of town. Now let's decide which plants we will collect.
Several folk ways to combat hair loss

You need to make a decoction from it and cool it to 40 °C. The remedy against hair loss is ready. Rinse your hair with this decoction after each wash, and it will become much stronger.

About the beneficial effects of castor oil on hairMany have heard of oils. But not everyone can use this remedy correctly. To strengthen hair, heat castor oil in a water bath and rub it into the scalp with a toothbrush. Then carefully wrap your head with a towel and leave for 5 hours. After this procedure, you need to thoroughly wash your hair with shampoo containing natural herbal extracts. Repeat the procedure once a week for 1-2 months.

By the way, it is best to rinse your hair with a strong infusion of birch leaves.

This recipe belongs to the famous Bulgarianhealer Ivanka. Mix 2 tablespoons of castor oil, 1 egg, 1 teaspoon of glycerin and a teaspoon of table vinegar. Beat the resulting mixture and rub into the scalp. After this, cover your head with a warm terry towel and hold your hair over the steam. Wash your head. As the healer assures, after this procedure your hair will become shiny, thicker, stronger and will be easier to style.
- Decoction of the field herbs
And here is what kind of hair treatment is done with folk remediesour grandmothers preferred. Mix chamomile flowers, plantain and sage leaves, nettle and oregano herbs thoroughly in equal quantities. Pour boiling water over the resulting mixture at the rate of a glass of water per tablespoon of herbs. Infuse the resulting decoction for 1 hour, then carefully strain, add black bread crumb and bring to a mushy state. Rub the warm mask of bread and herbs into the scalp and hold under a plastic cap for 2 hours. This compress should be washed off with warm water without soap.
- Decoction of thistles
If hair loss is associated with the formation ofdandruff, the roots of burdock, or agrimony, will help. Place the roots in a saucepan, pour water so that the liquid just covers the contents, and put in the oven. Boil over medium heat until the roots are completely softened. Cool the decoction, strain and rub into the hair roots daily. For those who plan to extend the treatment until the winter, we advise making a small preparation and freezing the roots of the plants. This way they are guaranteed not to rot until the next harvest.
- Burdock (or castor) oil
Strengthening hair with folk methods is not alwaysinvolves the use of plants and herbs. A good recipe for all city dwellers (who do not always have the opportunity to go to the forest or field), where the main ingredients are burdock (or castor) oil and alcohol. Mix the components in equal parts and rub this mixture once a week for 1-2 months. The procedure should be carried out half an hour before washing your hair. Then rinse your hair thoroughly.
- Strengthening the roots
If you notice that there are hairs left on your combhair with a slight thickening at the end, then it is necessary to strengthen the hair follicles. After all, hair loss from the root means that nothing else will grow in place of the lost hair. How to avoid this? The same castor oil will help. But this time it appears in a composition with an onion and a chicken egg. To strengthen the hair, squeeze the juice from a medium onion, add an equal share of castor oil and 1 yolk. Mix. Rub the resulting mixture into the hair roots 45 minutes before washing. After applying the onion-castor mask, cover your head with a plastic bag and a terry towel.
- The course is kerosene
In Rus', healers advised girls to strengthen theirhair with kerosene. Yes, you heard right. You need to mix equal parts of purified kerosene and burdock oil, then wash your hair with beer. Traditional medicine is silent about how exactly the hair smells after the procedure, but the fact is that it becomes stronger and thicker.
- Onion against dandruff
If doctors have diagnosed you with obesity,dandruff", do not rush to run to the drugstore. The following folk recipe will help with this affliction: mix 2 tablespoons of vodka with 1 tablespoon of onion juice. Rub this mixture into the scalp 10-15 minutes before washing. The procedure should be continued for 3-4 months until the hair is completely strengthened.
- Egg yolk and butter
Another method for city ladies,suffering not only from hair loss, but also from the lack of ecologically clean vegetation nearby. (By the way, all plants and herbs for the above-described treatment methods should be collected outside the city. Where the waste of the chemical industry does not reach, the exhaust gases of numerous cars do not reach and preferably where no human foot has set foot). If it is impossible to get to an ecologically clean area, do not despair. Use the following method: mix an egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of refined vegetable oil. Stir and rub thoroughly into the scalp. After that, you need to rinse your hair with warm water every 40 minutes (in order to wash off excess fat). Do folk remedies eliminate hair thinning in women, the treatment with which they prescribe themselves? Each woman will answer this question based on the result obtained. But one thing is for sure - there will be no harm from such treatment, unlike trying to solve the problem with medication. After all, folk medicine uses only natural ingredients for all its methods. And this is always useful.
Reconsider your habits
Finally, I would like to note that during treatmenthair loss, herbal infusions alone are not enough. Often, the problem of baldness is associated with stressful work, frequent hair dyeing (this is especially true for blondes who achieve a light color with the help of merciless hydrogen peroxide) or poor nutrition. Do you see that more and more hair remains on your comb? Analyze this problem. Maybe you should take a rest? Or limit hair coloring? Or go on a diet that prohibits all flour, sweet and fatty foods? Do not put off treatment for a long time. And if folk remedies do not help, consult a doctor. It is possible that hair loss is associated with some disease that is progressing while you are rubbing another decoction into your scalp. We recommend reading:
