Hair today Gone Tommorrow

Balding is not something anyone would look forward to. Even though we are unable to stop aging we can help ourselves when it comes to hair loss.

Our hair does get thinner as we age and more for some than others but with today's medications and creams etc we may be able to slow this down.

I have looked into many hair loss remedies and have found some that are better than others in how they say the can slow down hair loss and some even say they will help your existing hair grow more and stronger. I do not know about that but have heard of some of the good some of them do.

Stimulating Healthy Hair Growth Without The Use Of Steroids

By Ben Mester


No one wants to begin losing their hair. But a lot of people who are in that situation are not happy with the idea of using hormone based products such as Propecia to stimulate hair growth. They would rather go a more natural route if possible. But is the more natural path realistic for baldness? Do non-hormonal products actually do the trick?

There are a few techniques for stimulating hair growth that seem to work well. One is the compound minoxidil, which is found primarily in the product Rogain. Minoxidil was originally used as a blood pressure medication ironically enough, until it was found that minoxidil tablets caused the unwelcome side effect of hair growth all over the body.

Due to this minoxidil is usually applied topically and not taken in pill form. It encourages healthier hair growth as well as faster growth. Another natural product that encourages hair growth is black castor oil. There are lots of hair products that have begun to use black castor oil in their formula because it appears to contain particular nutrients the hair and scalp love.

You see, hair loss can often be a combination of factors, and frequently, an unhealthy scalp can be to blame for poor hair growth. Black castor oil helps to not only nourish the hair, but also the scalp. The scalp is a sensitive area and can become unhealthy due to a lack in blood flow. Studies have shown that lack of proper blood flow is at the base of lots of hair loss issues.

That's the reason why another compound, nitric oxide, has been demonstrated to be effective in treating some sorts of hair loss. Nitric oxide widens the veins and arteries and encourages more blood flow in the body. Greater blood flow means more nutritional elements which can considerably improve the health of the scalp. Taking one or two of these three non-steroidal supplements might just do the job for you and help not only in growing healthier hair, but also boost the health of the scalp too.
