what you can do to prevent hair fall?

Answer 1

Lots of reason for hair 'fall'...starting medications, getting off medications, hair breakage, stress, delivery of baby (hormone changes) etc. Assess if any of these are present to address how to handle.

Med related: usually once this is regulated, hair fall/loss stops, not a lot can be done for this, doctor consultation best option

Hair breakage: no follicle attached to end of hair...over processing, extreme heat (flat iron, dryer, curling iron) too often. Use a really good conditioner and shampoo, as well use a non-breakage formula (avail in dept. stores), olive oil treatment (warm olive oil to temp that will not burn your scalp), rub into scalp and hair saturate well, wrap plastic bag over hair/head secure and then wrap towel over head, leave for 30 minutes, rinse, wash with good shampoo, conditioner and breakage formula...do olive oil treatment once a week til problem solved.

Stress: same as above except attempt to lessen/remove stress situation if at all possible...hair fall should then decrease gradually (month or so) after. Hormonal changes after birth, about a month or so afterwards hair fall should lessen or stop all together. We lose x number of hairs when we comb/brush which is a necessary thing as hair dies and new hair takes it's place.

If a man and baldness is problem...Rogain is apparently very good for this...don't know tho as don't have that issue...check with doctor on all of these issues if necessary.

Brahmi amla oil also promotes hair growth.
A high protein diet with plenty of fruits, green vegetables and dairy products is a must.
Drink 10-12 glass of water everyday.

Use a very mild shampoo and condition your hair at least twice a week. When you do, make sure you rinse out the conditioner thoroughly, otherwise residue build-up will cause your hair to look limp and dull.

Know your vitamins! IRON is important for healthy hair and brittle, limp hair indicates an iron deficiency. Spinach has a good iron content, so gulp it down!

ZINC helps prevent hair loss and greying. Eat adequate zinc rich foods. Overweight people tend to have zinc deficiency, which is inversely related to the body mass index. Thus if you are overweight and if your hair falls too much, you may want to increase your intake of zinc containing foods. Recipes containing stone ground, wholegrain flour are rich in zinc.

A shortfall in VITAMIN B may cause dandruff, falling hair, loss of colour and could encourage grey hair. So B group Vitamins are essential for gloss, colour and thickness.

VITAMIN C ensures the health of capillaries supplying blood to hair follicles. Make sure your diet includes plenty of fresh fruits and veggies.

VITAMIN E encourages hair growth. Switch from refined flours to wholemeal and wheatgerm, eggs, vegetable oil.

COPPER stops hair from falling. Studies show that the copper content in the blood serum of people with falling hair is less than normal. Different types of alopecia (falling hair) are seen to have a deficiency of this important trace element. Include small quantities of nuts, especially cashews and peanuts, seeds, whole milk and beans in your diet as these contain minute but important amounts of copper.
