Castor Oil - Home Remedy for Hair loss

A lot of people especially men suffers from Hair loss. One of the common form of hair loss is the Pattern Male Baldness which is caused by the production of Dihydrotestosterone DHT that destroys the hair follicles as men age. Although it is not life-threatening, it could still pose a great damage to one's self-esteem.

     But there's good news! 

    There are various home treatments that you could try to help you solve this problem. One of them is Castor Oil or Ricino Oil. Castor oils is said to promote blood flow to the hair follicles and reactivating them to grow hair.

     Here in the Philippines we can purchase Castor Oil from drug stores like Mercury Drug, Watsons etc.

    It costs for about Php 200 depending upon the amount of ml.

    So to prepare the mixture you need to also have coconut oil.

STEPS

1. Use the 1:2 proportion (1 tablespoon of coconut oil and 2 tablespoons of Castor oil.)
2. Then mix. And store it in an empty container for later use at room temperature.
3. Use it at every night after bath (dry your hair first). Apply it on your scalp especially on your balding spots. You can use cotton balls in applying the mixture to your scalp.
4. Massage your scalp. This could increase thr blood flow to your hair follicles promoting hair regrowth.
5. Leave it overnight. You could use shower caps to cover your hair since it's a bit sticky so to avoid smirching your bedsheets and pillows.
6. Wash it off in the morning.

Applying Castor oil every night takes a huge amount of effort and it takes time to for desired results to take place as some users claimed that it took them about 3-5 months to see results.
