Thinning hair and receding hairlines have been a problem for men and women a lot longer than most of us realize and back before the time of modern technology “Medicine Men” May Have Had Some Answers” to dealing with this problem. Healers and medicine men had natural products for hair growth and replacement. Some of these are still used today with varying results.

Strictly speaking, all hair loss products could be considered “natural,” as they are produced from elements found on Earth. For purposes of this discussion, however, a “natural” remedy refers to any ingredient as it is found in nature and not altered or treated in any way before its use. Some people claim success with these methods and products, so it is worthwhile to examine a few of the most popular.

ESSENTIAL OILS: These are concentrated oils from certain plants, such as lavender, soybean, and bay. They are massaged into the scalp and are purported to assist with circulation and follicle stimulation.

EXERCISE: Any form of exercise increases and improves blood circulation to all parts of the body, including the scalp. It is believed that increased blood supply to the cells in hair follicles will maintain their health and stimulate hair production.

HERBAL COCKTAILS: (NOT FOR INGESTION): A variety of herbs are recommended, to include Rosemary, Sage, Nettle and Burdock. The advice is to boil them together, strain off the leaves, and wash the hair with the solution every day.

JOJOBA OIL: Widely used in Mexico for hundreds of years, it is massaged on the scalp, and many claim it is highly effective in stimulating new hair growth.

LOWERING DHT: DHT is formed when an enzyme in a man’s body acts upon testosterone and is believed to be responsible for the “closing-up” of hair follicles. Provillus is one of the most effective products on the market today and may block DHT production and thus shows promise as an aide for male and female hair loss sufferers.

Homeopathic physicians usually recommend that some of these treatments be used concurrently. Some have had success, but, as in all cases, different bodies respond differently to any treatment. Still, they are worth a try before more expensive methods are considered.

In addition, it is also important to see a doctor to always make sure that your hair loss is not a symptom of a more serious problem or illness. Many people don't realize that hair loss is sometimes the sign of a more serious underlying condition.

If you find that none of these solutions work, don't panic as there are many other ways to remedy hair loss which are more drastic and usually more expensive but also often times, more effective.

So, hopefully this article has helped you make a better informed decision on how to battle your hair loss. I know that when searching for a remedy, it can be overwhelming to sift through all of the products and claims that are available out there. But remember, the remedies named in this list are the most popular for a reason, they tend to be effective.
