Hair Treatment

Hair treatment for hair loss
Here we discuss about homemade hair treatment for hairloss. If you suffer from hair loss, definitely you require a hair treatment. In the market there are so many types of hair treatment products available. But here we focus on homemade hair treatment.

Hair treatment using Reetha (Areetha), Shikakai and Amla. All these ingredients are herbs. In India it is very common. I would like to tell you some thing about these ingredients of our hair treatment.
Reetha otherwise is called soap nut. Soap nuts contain saponin, a natural detergent which is used to clean clothes. It is used to make herbal shampoo. Here we can add this in our hair treatment.

Soap nuts have become popular as an environmentally friendly alternative to manufactured, chemical detergents . A few nuts can be placed in a cotton drawstring bag in with a wash load and reused several times. Soap nuts are safe for washing silk, woolens and other delicate fabrics.



Shikakai means "fruit for hair" and is a traditional shampoo used in India.








It is made from Acacia concinna, a shrub native to the warm, plains of central and south India. Acacia concinna has been used as hair treatment in India for centuries, it is now grown commercially in India and Far East Asia. The plant parts used for the dry powdered or the extract are the bark, leaves or pods. So it is also very good for hair treatments.

Amla or Indian gooseberry (Phyllanthus emblica, syn.
Emblica officinalis) is a deciduous tree

of the Euphorbiaceae family. It is known for its edible fruit of the same name. It is used in Ayurvedic medicines. Locally the crush of this fruit is used in hair treatment in India. Whatever hair treatment we make out of this Gooseberry is very effective in controlling hairloss and helping hair growth.








How to make Hair Treatment
Mix Reetha 2 tbsp, Shikakai 2 tbsp and Amla 2 tbsp. Add an egg and make it a paste. Wash your hair first. Apply this paste on scalp and hair. Let your fingers pass through out your hair that will make the paste mix well in your entire hair. Leave it for 20 min. Then rinse hair well. if you want use mild shampoo. Repeat it two three times a week for a month. Some may not like the smell of egg, so use coconut or olive oil instead of egg to prepare this hair treatment. I hope you enjoy these
hair treatment.
