Thick, Dry Hair And Scalp. Loss of Hair. Posted: 05-06-04 00:47am
Hello,
i am a 23 year old caucasian woman. I
have long, naturally curly hair that is
very thick. I wash it everyday and a lot
of it falls out (more than normal). I
also have a very dry scalp and hair. If
anyone can recommend something to help my
problem I would appreciate it...I have
tried everything.
Thanks

Hair loss can occur as a result of stress
which can also dry & damage your hair,
consider that & your diet.
Stress, vitamin b's, sam-e,
5htp(tryptophan), meditation, relaxation,
time out if you're overdoing things.
Diet, well you may be eating well but
maybe either not foods that your system
needs or not a wide enough variety.
Dry scalp/hair (i assume you've tried the
usual shampoos, conditoners &
conditioning treatments) you might try
olive oil (it is horrid & you need to
be careful what you wear while it is in
your hair) but my dr says her grandmother
used it all the time & so has she.
Otherwise see a dr about the possibility
of an allergy (could even be airborn - but
also food, drink, cleansers etc too) that
may be causing the problem.

Hair Oil Massage!! Posted: 09-20-04 23:07pm
You could also massage hair oil on your
scalp. I use amla hair oil which I got
from www.Naturalplaza.Com.
Do put a towel on your pillow if you apply
hair oil overnite. Wash it as usual and
do not comb hair immediately after oiling
or washing as then the hair roots are
tender and that could be one of the reason
of hair loss.
Happy massaging!!
