How to Stop Female Hair Loss

October 11, 2009 by ModernMom Staff Leave a Comment

Hair loss is a medical condition that affects millions of people around the globe–and women are no exception. If you are a woman who is currently experiencing hair loss, you are probably looking for proven techniques to treat this condition. Well, the good news is that now you can! There are many safe but effective treatment options that you can use to stop female hair loss. In this article, we will provide you with step-by-step techniques.

Step 1

Be good to your hair. When you’re experiencing hair loss, the last thing you want to do is damage the healthy hair you do have. You should avoid using chemicals on your hair–including dye, permanent solution or other dangerous chemicals. You also need to avoid damaging it further with styling products like straighteners, blow dryers, curling irons and damaging hair supplies. This might include gel, hairspray or similar products. Go natural to ensure that your female hair loss stops.

Step 2

Stimulate your hair follicles to grow. One of the best ways that you can stop female hair loss is to stimulate your hair follicles. This can be done with regular scalp massages. You can use scalp oil or do this while you’re shampooing. Simply use the pads of your fingers to perform circular massage movements to your scalp. Go all over the head while massaging so that you can stimulate all of the hair follicles. This will also remove dead skin cells which may further prevent the hair from growing.

Step 3

Try herbal products to stop the hair loss. There are many different herbs which have been proven to help stop female hair loss. A few of these include algae extract and Ginko Biloba. The algae extract contains nourishing vitamins and nutrients which help new hair grow and protect the existing hair. Ginko Biloba provides more blood circulation to the skin and hair follicles, stimulating new growth and helping to stop hair loss. Try other herbal remedies that you find which might work.

Step 4

Get your vitamins. It’s essential that you get the needed vitamins and nutrients if you plan on stopping your hair loss. Zinc is one of the supplements which have helped others stop their hair loss. Try a great multi-vitamin like Centrum or something similar. Be sure that you’re also getting enough vitamins from food–eat fresh fruits and veggies regularly.

Step 5

Visit your doctor. If nothing else works, you will probably want to schedule a trip to your doctor. In some cases, hair loss is a symptom of an underlying condition and if this is the case, your doctor needs to become aware of it right away. Let him or her know when your hair started to fall out and how long it’s been happening. He or she may provide you with a prescription medication that will help with the hair loss.
