Well…clearly there is no fool proof treatment to stop one from going bald. BUT, it can be slowed down, and at the same time improve the health of your hair and scalp. I’m going to split this info’ over a few posts as there is a lot.
The health of your hair, like your skin and nails, comes mostly from what’s going on inside you. That is to say, if your body is deprived of essential nutrients, your hair and scalp will suffer. If you use commercial shampoos and conditioners, you are doing your hair and scalp a great disservice. These products are very similar to commercial household cleaning products, so they are harsh and strip your hair and scalpof its natural oils and vitality. Go for products that are sulphate and paraben-free and —there are many available. This is a must.
According to ‘Traditional Chinese Medicine’ the condition of your hair reflects the health of your kidneys, so anxiety and fear is going to affect the state of your hair and scalp. Your hair will naturally go through some changes every seven years, and hormonal changes are also likely to affect your hair.
