Abstract: (2613 Views)
Hair loss is one of the problems that affects both men and women in different ages. This hair loss can have many causes. Some are caused by treatable problems and for some no effective cure has yet been found. Lawsonia inermis, Spinacia oleracea, Nigella sativa, Cinnamomum verum, Glycyrrhiza glabra, Matricaria chamomilla, Thymus vulgaris, Allium sativum, Allium stipitatum, Arctium lappa, Linum usitatissimum, Aloe vera, Zingiber officinal, Altighaber officinale, Lavandula angustifolia, Mentha piperita, Salvia officinalis, Ocimum basilicum, Urtica dioica, and Achillea millefolium stimulate hair growth and treat baldness. It can be said that the use of herbal medicines that are from natural sources do not have the side effects of chemical medicines. Herbal hair loss treatment products usually affect hair follicles and also regulate scalp fat or increase the health of hair grafts and prevent hair loss.
