Nutritional Supplements: B Complex is very important for healthy

hair. The B vitamins increase growth and prevent loss caused by

stress. Biotin (a B vitamin) is especially important for healthy

hair and to prevent thinning. Essential Fatty Acids improve texture

and prevents dry and brittle hair. It also adds moisture to your

skin. Hemp Oil is awesome for this! L- Cysteine prevents hair loss

and improves growth and texture. Zinc stimulates hair growth as does

Copper. MSM aids protein building blocks and strengthens hair.

Silica makes the hair stronger and promotes growth.

 

Herbal Medicine: He Shou Wu or Fo-Ti is well known for it's ability

to improve hair growth, stop thinning, and reverse graying. Ginkgo

Biloba stimulates circulation to the scalp. Horsetail is an

excellent herbal source of silica for strong, shiny hair.

 

Homeopathic Remedies: Fluoric acid is helpful for brittle hair that

falls out in small tufts. Kali carbonicum is for dry, thinning hair.

Kali Sulphuricum will help with yellow, flaking dandruff, which may

be moist or sticky. Hair may fall out, leaving bald spots. Natrum

mur is used when hair loss is accompanied by dandruff and white

crusts on the scalp. Phosphorus is indicated when hair falls out in

handfuls.

 

Aromatherapy: Rosemary, Bay, Cedarwood, Grapefruit, Lavender, Lemon

and Chamomile are all helpful for hair loss.

 

Bach Flower Remedies: Willow is for those who are disappointed with

their life and find little to be grateful for. It will restore

optimism and faith. Willow helps those who have suffered adversity

or misfortune and find these difficult to accept. Without complaint

or resentment, they judge life much by the success which it

brings.They feel that they have not deserved so great a trial, that

it was unjust, and they become embittered.
