Get ready for a complete hair transformation! 1st Part: How to nourish your hair from the inside out?
Think about eating more Proteins: they are the Bricks of Hair! Make sure to consume foods rich in protein, such as eggs, lean meats, fish, legumes such as beans and lentils, yogurt and cheese. Proteins are essential for building and strengthening hair strands as well as keratin formation.
Think about iron- which delivers oxygen to your strands Include red meat, spinach, kale, broccoli, beans and lentils in your diet. And in women, iron deficiency is very common due to menstruation. Low iron levels can lead to hair loss, a condition called telogen effluvium, which increases hair loss and limits hair growth.
That's why it's interesting to take a test called ferritin, to check your iron reserves. The good news is that this drop can be reversed when iron levels return to normal. Think about Vitamin C To improve the body's absorption of iron, consume citrus fruits orange, lemon, but also strawberries, kiwi, broccoli and peppers.
Vitamin C is also important in the production of collagen, think about the B Complex Vitamins: which help with hair growth and maintenance. Whole grains, meats, eggs, milk and green leafy vegetables are rich in B vitamins. Biotin (B7) is especially important and can be found in walnuts, almonds, sweet potatoes and eggs.
Don't forget Omega-3: Incorporate fatty fish like salmon and sardines, as well as walnuts, chestnuts, chia seeds and flaxseed into your routine. Omega-3 strengthens hair and keeps the scalp healthy, fighting inflammation and dandruff. And also remember Zinc: Present in meat, seafood, oilseeds and legumes.
Zinc is essential for the production of keratin, the protein that gives structure to hair. Zinc deficiency can lead to hair loss, so including it in your diet is essential. It's also important that you sunbathe - because a lack of vitamin D can contribute to hair loss.
If you can't, supplement this important vitamin and, without a doubt, stay well hydrated. If you're not drinking enough water throughout the day, your hair could be crying out for hydration. When you are dehydrated, your body prioritizes vital functions, leaving your hair dry.
The health of your hair starts from within! A balanced diet and hydration are essential to provide the nutrients your hair needs to grow strong and healthy. 2nd Part- What are the Essential Care Taking care of your hair with care is essential to keep it healthy and stimulate growth.
When washing, avoid hot water, which can dry out your hair. Wash your hair with warm water and finish with a jet of cold water to close the cuticles. Use shampoos suitable for your hair type.
Try shampoos with zinc and ketoconazole to combat oiliness, dandruff, and other scalp problems. Protect your strands from heat. If you use a hairdryer a lot, dry with cooler air.
Reduce the use of straighteners and hair curlers, which can break your strands. Also, if you need to dye your strands, use less aggressive dyes. Avoid Hair Pulling - when strands are pulled with excessive force, it can damage the hair structure and lead to hair loss.
This is common in very tight hairstyles like braids, ponytails and buns. And that's important. because constant traction can cause traction alopecia.
So avoid very tight hairstyles, prefer looser styles and vary your hairstyles so as not to put too much pressure on the same areas. And You Can Also Massage Your Scalp A 2019 study showed that massaging your scalp improves hair growth, blood flow, and scalp health. Additionally, massaging your scalp can help relieve stress and tension, two emotions that can cause hair loss.
Use your fingertips to gently massage your scalp for a few minutes every day. 3rd part- Popular treatments Which natural treatments can enhance your results and achieve long, thick hair faster? 1.
Aloe Vera There are people who think that aloe vera is a true miracle for their hair. Helps treat hair loss, soothes the scalp, conditions hair and reduces dandruff. Did you know that in some cases of baldness, there is mild to moderate inflammation around the follicles, especially in the upper part called the infundibulum?
This phenomenon is known as microinflammation, differentiating it from inflammation in cicatricial alopecia. Additionally, there may be mild fibrosis around the follicles. You can apply the pure gel a few times a week or use products that contain aloe vera.
2. Coconut Oil Coconut oil is actually interesting for hair. It penetrates the hair, reducing protein loss.
A 2021 study found that applying coconut oil to the scalp can enrich the microbiome, making the scalp and hair follicles healthier. If you have dry hair, this can help. 3.
Ginseng Taking ginseng supplements can give that little boost to hair growth by stimulating hair follicles. Ginsenosides, active components of ginseng, are responsible for this incredible effect on hair. 4.
Onion Juice I don't know if I would do this… If you can stand the smell, onion juice can be a great ally. A 2014 study showed that it helps with hair growth and treats alopecia areata. Improves circulation and keratinocyte growth factor.
To use onion juice, puree a few onions in a blender and squeeze out the juice. Apply the juice to your scalp and hair, leaving it to act for at least 15 minutes. Then wash with your shampoo… 5 Rosemary Oil Rosemary oil is fantastic for stimulating hair growth and preventing hair loss.
A 2015 study also found that rosemary oil may be as effective as minoxidil in treating androgenetic alopecia. You can make rosemary tea or even add a few drops of rosemary oil to your shampoo. 4th part- Treatments What can you do if you are losing your hair?
Baldness changes the biological clock of your hair follicles. It shortens the hair growth phase and prolongs the time between the loss of a hair and the beginning of a new anagen phase. This means your follicles can stay empty for much longer than normal, delaying new hair growth.
And can there be Miniaturization of follicles In scalp follicles, testosterone is transformed into dihydrotestosterone (DHT) through an enzyme called 5-alpha-reductase? DHT binds to receptors in hair follicles, causing changes that lead to baldness in people with baldness genetics. In people who don't have genetics, hair falls out and when new hairs grow, they have the same thickness and length.
Now, if you have baldness, this doesn't happen. With each cycle, the hair growth phase becomes shorter. Result?
Thinner and shorter hair, unable to cover your bald spot. And also some follicles are replaced by fibrosis, forming scars. This prevents the growth of new hair in that region.
That's why the sooner you treat it, the better. The aim of the treatment is to slow the progression of the disease, keeping your hair full and maintaining its current hair volume over the years. In some cases, it is possible to thicken the hair and even stimulate the growth of new hair in follicles that have been inactive for a long time.
What are the medicines? TOPIC MINOXIDIL 2-5% Minoxidil is the only topical medication with proven efficacy for treating baldness in men and women, being the first line of treatment for female pattern baldness. It prolongs the hair growth phase, stimulating cell proliferation in the follicles and reducing that microinflammation I mentioned.
You can use 1 or 2x a day. The worst side effect is that the hair becomes stiff and sticky. But there are some formulas that don't, like Kirkland's Minoxidil (and look, I'm not advertising for them).
I used it and it was the only one I adapt to. Other side effects include itching, peeling, and hair growth on women's faces. ORAL MINOXIDIL Recently, some studies with oral minoxidil with good results were published.
It has an apparently stronger effect than the topical. Side effects are: palpitations, dizziness, swelling and hair growth in other parts of the body. FINASTERIDE Finasteride inhibits the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which transforms testosterone into DHT, which causes the miniaturization of follicles.
Finasteride is used off-label to treat female pattern baldness, that is, it is not specified on the leaflet. It is contraindicated in women of childbearing age because it can affect the fetus, but for postmenopausal women, it can be used, as long as there is no contraindication DUTASTERIDE Dutasteride is similar to finasteride, but blocks around 90% of the enzyme 5- alpha-reductase, compared to 70% of finasteride, is generally more effective. But for men, it has more side effects, especially sexual effects.
As with finasteride, if it is used in women, it is best after menopause, without any risk of becoming pregnant. For women, SPIRONOLACTONE can also be included, which is a diuretic that helps women with baldness by reducing the production of androgenic hormones and the action of these hormones in hair follicles. There is also a risk of fetal malformation.
Therefore, always use under medical guidance and with safe prevention against pregnancy (or post-menopause) Other treatments such as Low Level Laser (Photobiomodulation) Photobiostimulation is a great option as a complementary treatment for those suffering from androgenetic alopecia, whether male or female. * It has a cap with LED, helmet with LED, comb with LED.
