Household remedy for accelerating hair growth
Since full and strong hair has always been considered the epitome of beauty, the list of supposedly helpful household remedies is almost endless. However, some of them actually have a certain effect and can help those affected. In addition to a healthy and balanced diet, good and above all moisturizing care of the scalp and regular thorough hair combing, there are various remedies that are supposed to stimulate and accelerate hair growth.
First and foremost, there is castor oil. Castor oil is extracted from the seeds of the so-called miracle tree and is known for its essential fatty acids. Among other things, it is rich in vitamin E, which strengthens the scalp and can also stimulate hair growth.
Castor oil is extremely viscous, which is why it is recommended to mix it in equal parts with another, thinner oil for application on the scalp. Here, coconut, olive or almond oil are suitable, which are also known for their positive effect on hair growth. The oil mixture is now evenly distributed on the head and massaged in for a few minutes with circular movements.
Then let it work in for about 30 to 45 minutes and then wash out the hair as usual. Apple vinegar is also said to have positive properties. It helps to remove dust, dirt and other residues from the hair, making it softer, shinier and stronger.
To use apple vinegar simply mix two tablespoons of it with one liter of water after washing your hair. This mixture is applied to the hair and massaged in thoroughly. After 15 minutes, rinse again.
Renewed hair washing is not necessary. A similar effect can also be achieved with various herbs, such as nettle, rosemary, sage or catnip. The procedure is very similar to that for apple vinegar, except that you now mix the liter of warm water with the herbs.
Aloe Vera can also be used to stimulate hair growth and additionally reduce dandruff. Simply mix fresh aloe vera gel with a little lemon juice and massage it into the hair, then let it work again for about half an hour. Afterwards the hair can be washed as usual. If used once or twice a week, a positive effect on scalp and hair growth can be noted.
