5 Ayurvedic Herbs for Hair Care

One popular alternative treatment for hair loss and hair thinning problem comes in the form of Ayurveda herbs. In Sanskrit, Ayurveda means life science. It is a combination of two words: ayur, meaning life and veda, meaning science. 

This conventional form of healing takes into consideration a series of factors which include proper lifestyle, mental balance and spiritual nourishment to promote good health of the body and the hair.

Ayurveda practitioners believe that an individual’s health depends on the three doshas known as kapha, pitta, and vatta. By eliminating too much pitta dosha through the use of herbs, a person can prevent the onset of hair loss and hair thinning problems as well as promote thicker, shinier and healthier hair strands.

There are hundreds of Ayurvedic herbs which promote hair regrowth by nourishing, moisturizing and conditioning the hair follicles and the scalp. Five of the most recognized Ayurvedic herbs for hair care are amla, bhringraj, ghritkumari, menthulu and brahmi.

Ayurvedic Herb #1: Indian Gooseberry (Amla)

Amla prevents the onset of dandruff and other fungal infections that can hamper the growth of the hair. This Ayurvedic herb also stops hair loss, strengthens the follicles and maintains the radiance of the hair strands.  

Ayurvedic Herb #2: Eclipta Alba (Bhringraj)

Bhringraj is an Ayurvedic herb which is commonly used in hair tonic preparations to hinder the hair graying process. It also provides a nourishing and moisturizing effect when mixed with other essential oils such as coconut and sesame.

Ayurvedic Herb #3: Aloe Vera (Ghritkumari)

Aloe vera serves as an excellent antibiotic and anti-inflammatory agent as well as a hair growth stimulator. It balances the ph level in the scalp at the same time nourishes, softens and moistures the hair follicles for the production of fuller and healthier hair strands.

Ayurvedic Herb #4: Fenugreek (Menthi , Menthulu)

Fenugreek improves blood circulation in the scalp by dilating the blood vessels. Proper blood flow in the scalp helps deliver adequate amount of oxygen and nutrients to the hair roots for the growth of healthier and stronger hair.

Ayurvedic Herb #5: Water Hyssop (Brahmi)

Waterhyssop contains antioxidant that prevents hair loss and hair thinning problems due to free radicals. It also prevents the onset of dandruff as well as improves the luster of the hair strands.

3 Essential Hair Care Rules for Healthier Mane

If you want your hair to be at its very best, then you need to take good care of it. Easier said than done, right?

But, if you really want to achieve shinier, thicker and healthier hair strands, then you need to exert your time and effort in learning the rules of proper hair care. By incorporating these rules in your day-to-day routine, you can stop the onset of hair problems like hair loss, dandruff, dry and brittle hair strands. 

So, if you’re planning to attain luxurious tresses like your well-loved celebrities, then here are the things you need to know. 

Rule # 1: Always be nice to your hair.

This means that you need to pamper your hair in the gentlest way possible. Never use products that contain harsh chemical ingredients since they may contribute to the onset of dandruff, hair dryness, scalp irritation, or worse, hair loss. Instead opt for organic shampoos and conditioners because they are rich with vitamins and minerals that aid in the growth of healthier hair strands. 

Rule # 2: Be gentle with wet hair.

Wet hair is very fragile. With that, you should never comb, twist, tug or pull your hair when it is at its most vulnerable state.  As much as possible, avoid putting extreme pressure on the wet strands since they are prone to hair breakage. To dry wet strands, opt for air-drying technique as it is more gently on the hair. To do this, wrap your hair in a soft towel for 5-10 minutes. Then, remove the towel and let your hair dry the natural way.  

Rule # 3: Don’t over-expose your hair to extreme heat.

The heat emitted from hairstyling tools like hot irons, blow dryers, curlers, permers and straighteners can cause damage to the hair follicles. With that, to prevent the hair from getting too dry and frizzy, minimize the use of these tools. However, when you can’t help but use these tools, it is necessary to set them on low temperature setting to prevent the hair from getting damaged.

In addition, when under the heat of the sun, protect your hair from the harsh effects of the UV rays by applying leave-in conditioners, wearing hats and scarves as well as using umbrellas.

A Personal Review of a Treatment Product for a Very Personal Condition

I needed to be talked into buying this product after the end of my free trial because it was a bit pricey. I admit I did notice something after the end of my 30-day free trial. And now, I’m still getting very satisfactory results for 6 months in a row. I didn’t regret ever paying for this, unlike with the products I used before which were such a waste of money and time!

My hair used to be very thin, dry, and somehow has stopped growing. It has had the same length as it had a year ago; I was so worried that I tried using the synthetic topical products but they were huge failures. After using Leimo, my hair has never been more manageable and softer. It has added moisture to my hair and my brush is now pulling out lesser hair strands.

If you are currently using Leimo, I’m telling you, you would probably barely notice anything after your trial. Perhaps, I’m one of those lucky ones to gain from it within such a short period. My only tip is that you should use the products as directed; otherwise, you’re only jeopardizing its potential on you. Use the Leimo Bio-Cleansing Shampoo and the Thickening Conditioner every day; the Scalp Scrub, three times a week; the Scalp Therapy and Scalp Serum, upon waking up and before going to bed, respectively. (The smell is not really what you might find agreeable but it’s good nevertheless.) All these directions may come off a little tedious but it grows into a habit in the long run.

I’m definitely recommending this product especially if you end up frustrated with your current treatments. But here’s the catch again, the product is a little expensive but I personally think it is worth it. I am very pleased with the product and still awaiting for something more.

Stop DHT-induced Hair Loss for Free for Leimo Free 30 Days Trial in Australia

Australia Press Release - Oct. 25, 2012 - Leimo International announces the launch of the 30–day free hair loss treatment trial, a promotional deal that offers free use of the Leimo Personal Hair Laser Starter Kit for a one-month period. 

The Leimo Personal Hair Laser Starter Kit is made up of five (5) organic wet products and a single (1) hair laser therapy device.

The topical solutions that comprise the Leimo wet products are: the Leimo Bio-Cleansing Shampoo, Leimo Thickening Conditioner, Leimo Scalp and Body Scrub, Leimo Scalp Therapy Day Treatment and the Leimo Scalp Serum Night Treatment. This organic-based suite of hair loss treatment contains herbal essences of saw palmetto, nettle, camellia, rosemary, and grape seed extracts; all of which are natural DHT blockers that aid in preventing the further onset of hair loss as well as the future recurrence of this condition. 

The hair laser therapy device in the form of the Leimo Personal Hair Laser renders phototherapy technology—low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and light-emitting diode therapy (LEDT) — to stimulate the follicles’ mitochondria, reactivating weakened and dormant hair follicles. 

Both the laser comb and the organic-base wet work hand in hand to create a hair regrowth system that helps prevent the onset of mild to moderate androgenic alopecia or female and male pattern baldness.

What is androgenic alopecia?

Androgenic alopecia, commonly referred to as pattern baldness, is the most common type of hair loss in both men and women. 

Studies revealed that approximately 95% of hair loss cases are due to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) hormone, a by-product of the combination of the male hormone testosterone and the enzyme 5-alpha reductase.  The overproduction of DHT in the scalp can clog up the hair follicles, causing the weakening of the hair roots and the deterioration of the hair bulb; hence, producing thinner, smaller and finer hair strands that later on results to a receding hairline or a balding condition. 

In most cases, when DHT attaches itself to the receptor sites of the follicle, it hinders the proper flow of blood and nutrients from reaching the hair roots. The lack of oxygenated blood and nourishment may trigger the hair follicles’ to miniaturize, ultimately leading to its dormancy or, worse, death. 

That being the case, to counteract the effects of DHT, hair loss victims can make use of DHT blockers. One of the best DHT blockers in the market, which combines organic hair loss treatment and laser therapy for hair regrowth, is the Leimo Personal Hair Laser Starter Kit.

This suite of hair loss treatment is specifically designed to counteract the damaging effects of DHT on the hair follicles, promoting a nutrition-optimal environment for the growth of fuller, thicker, stronger, and healthier hair strands. 

The Leimo Personal Hair Laser Starter Kit Promotional Deal

Right at this moment, Leimo International-Australia is offering a 30-day free hair loss treatment with the Leimo Personal Hair Laser Starter Kit. This special promotional deal entitles all residents of Australia with a chance to try the Leimo Personal Hair Laser Starter Kit free of charge for a period of 30 days.
