Are you losing hair? Are you shedding hair? Do you see a large amount of hair fall in the drain, on your pillow, in your brush/comb.

There are so many things it could be. I do not recommend going for products like rogain, minoxidil , etc.

Have these products proven Hair Growth?, Yes. However, once you start using these products, you always have to use these products.

It could be a wide variety of things I.e diet, genetics, product, medication, hair pull, some form of Alopecia.

Don’t jump for another “product” before you know the cause!!!

When I was doing clinicals at World Trichology Society I was quite inquisitive asking millions of questions. One of Dr. Kingsley assistants told me that Lavender was one of their most successful ingredients. I wanted to do a trial/error study. I used myself as the patient due to hair thinning & an extremely itchy scalp. I 100% feel there is something in the water causing issues. Since January 27ththis year I have been boiling the water and using Keurig cups filled with lavender. Not store bought, fresh homegrown lavender.

Ways to naturally thicken your hair.

“1. Never Use Sulfate Shampoos:
If you want thicker hair, sulfates are one of your worst enemies. Although sulfates are fierce cleaners, and they might give your shampoo more of that soapy sense, they can contribute to the damage to your hair in the long run. The sulfate-based chemicals present in your fancy shampoos can dry out your strands, irritate your skin, and cause irritation to your scalp by disrupting its microbiome. These chemicals can also strip your hair of its genuine color and natural oils, hindering the growth (of your hair) and making it thinner.

2. Treat Your Hair with Eggs:
Protein is essential for your hair’s strength and thickness, and eggs are rich in it. In order to treat your hair with eggs, first of all, you will have to beat a couple of eggs together in a bowl. Then, the beaten eggs must be applied directly to your scalp and left to dry for at least 30 to 45 minutes. In the end, you will have to wash your hair gently with lukewarm water and bland shampoo.

3. Olive Oil Can Work Wonders:
Olive oil is a great source of omega-3 fatty acids and some other essential nutrients that may aid your hair’s health like nothing else. You can have thicker and healthier hair by simply applying olive oil directly to your scalp on an everyday basis. Olive oil can also make your hair softer as well as moisturize the scalp’s dry areas. Warm olive oil to body temperature before gently massaging it into your scalp and hair.

4. Shake Hands with Proper Nutrition:
A nutritious diet comprising healthy fats and proteins, as well as a range of vitamins and minerals, can be great for the health of your hair. So, if you are fed up with your thin and rough hair, you might want to make changes to your everyday diet. You can incorporate some of the following foods rich in nutrients into your diet: eggs, salmon, walnuts, almonds, beans, Greek yogurt, etc.

5. Apply Orange Puree to Your Scalp:
The vitamin C, acid, and pectin present in oranges can aid the growth of your hair in a few different ways. These vitamins and minerals will help maintain the natural sheen of your hair and can make it look thicker as well. The acid present in oranges is best for breaking apart the residue from hair products that interferes with the growth of your hair. The best thing about orange puree is that it does not have an unpleasant smell or odor like most other remedies of its kind. Moreover, you will have to blend fresh oranges to make this puree. Thereafter, you will have to massage it into your scalp and leave it for at least an hour prior to washing it out.

6. Try Aloe Vera Gel or Oil:
The Aloe Vera plant is known to have a number of health benefits for skin, scalp, and hair. If you start applying aloe gel or oil regularly to your scalp, it may strengthen and thicken your hair in the long run. Keep in mind that you should use this treatment at least twice a week before expecting any results.

7. Avocado Rub May Also Help:
Avocados are rich in vitamin E and are considered great natural moisturizers. You can prepare avocado rub at home and apply it to your scalp every week, at least twice. To make this rub at home, you will have to blend an avocado’s pulp with a tablespoon of olive oil.

8. Give Castor Oil A Try:
Castor oil is an excellent source of fatty acids and Vitamin E, which can improve the health of your hair and scalp. Apply this oil to your head and scalp until it coats your hair, then leave it for at least 45 minutes before washing your hair with mild shampoo.

9. Coconut Oil Is Also Great for Your Hair Health:
A recent study conducted in the United States of America suggests that coconut oil can be easily absorbed by the strands of your hair. It further helps prevent breakage as well as split ends. The study has also observed that coconut oil can strengthen and thicken a person’s hair, stimulating its growth.

10. Try Applying Rosemary Oil As Well:
Rosemary oil is also known to be effective for your hair’s health and growth. You will have to apply this oil directly to your scalp at least thrice a week for best results.

11. Have Regular Scalp Massages:
Most hair experts around the world suggest that frequent scalp massages can thicken as well as strengthen a person’s hair in the long run. So, you must give this simple treatment a try and see if it works magic on your hair.

12. Try Taking Biotin Supplements:
People with a deficiency of biotin, a B-complex vitamin, often experience hair issues. There is evidence that this vitamin can support your hair’s growth and make it thicker. However, you must speak with your doctor prior to taking any biotin supplements.

Conclusion:
We hope that this article solves your problems and helps you make your hair thicker, stronger, and much smoother than ever before!”

Key takeaways:
Rosemary water, derived from steeping rosemary leaves in hot water and then applied to the scalp, has been reported to increase hair growth.
Rosemary's compounds have anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and antioxidant properties and can boost circulation and nerve growth.
While research is limited, studies on rosemary oil suggest a possible positive effect on hair growth.
Rosemary water recipes are simple, affordable, and easy to make and apply at home.
Precautions for use: always patch test first; avoid if pregnant, breastfeeding, or allergic to rosemary; rosemary water may darken hair color.
Rosemary: hair growth's viral ingredient

As more and more people turn to natural alternatives for their beauty needs, one ingredient is making headlines in the world of hair growth: rosemary. This fragrant herb is known for its role in cooking, but its connection with hair growth is not too far-fetched. It has been used in traditional medicine for centuries to treat various conditions, including hair loss.
Recently, rosemary water, a simple herb preparation, has gone viral for its potential hair-growth benefits. Its growing popularity is due to it being a simple, cost-effective DIY remedy for hair growth.
The hashtag has accumulated an impressive 695 million views on TikTok, with countless videos showcasing successful results. These users report faster hair growth, new hair regrowth, and even improvements in dandruff control.
Yet with all the hype for rosemary's hair-growth benefits, does science back up these claims?
What is rosemary?

Rosemary, a woody, evergreen herb known scientifically as Salvia rosmarinus (previously Rosmarinus officinalis), belongs to the mint family, Lamiaceae. This perennial plant, native to the Mediterranean region, is characterized by its needle-like leaves and white flowers.
For centuries, its fragrant properties have enhanced our meals and served as a medicinal herb treating various health conditions. It has been used in folk medicine to treat ailments such as kidney stones and menstrual pain, as well as relieve symptoms caused by respiratory disorders and even hair loss.
Today, rosemary is not only used for flavoring food but also for its potential health benefits. People commonly use it believing it improves memory, aids in digestion, boosts the immune system, and stimulates hair growth. It is also widely used in essential oils, beauty products, cleaning supplies, and dietary supplements.
The science behind rosemary's benefits

What contributes to rosemary's numerous benefits? It all comes down to the plant's powerful compounds responsible for its therapeutic abilities, including flavonoids, terpenes such as ursolic acid, oleanolic acid, carnosic acid, and carnosol, as well as phenolic compounds like caffeic acid and rosmarinic acid.
The combination of these compounds has been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and antioxidant activities, as well as increase blood flow and stimulate nerve growth. These effects make rosemary a promising therapy for various skin and health conditions.
What is rosemary water?

Rosemary water, sometimes called rosemary tea, is a simple concoction made from steeping rosemary leaves in hot water. The process is similar to making herbal tea. However, rosemary water must steep for longer to extract the beneficial compounds from the leaves fully.
This dark-colored rosemary-infused water can then be used in a variety of ways to support hair and scalp health.
Can rosemary water treat hair loss?

Two forms of rosemary are used for hair growth benefits: rosemary oil and rosemary water. Although there's limited research on rosemary water and hair growth, studies on the more potent rosemary oil show some promise. Two studies, in particular, suggest rosemary might help with hair growth.
One study found that after six months, rosemary oil was just as effective for treating androgenetic alopecia (male and female pattern baldness) as minoxidil, a common hair growth treatment branded and sold as Rogaine.
In another study, this time with mice, researchers found that rosemary extract may block a hormone known to cause hair loss — dihydrotestosterone (DHT). The results showed promising signs that rosemary may help promote hair growth in these cases.
While these findings are optimistic, more studies are needed to understand rosemary's role in hair growth, especially ones focusing on rosemary water. However, it's important to remember that since hair loss has various causes, rosemary water might not work for everyone.
How rosemary water may boost hair growth

Rosemary's potential to stimulate hair growth may be linked to the plant's numerous beneficial properties. Some key benefits include the following:
Increased blood flow. Rosemary water may increase blood flow to the scalp, which provides oxygen and vital nutrients to hair follicles. This helps the follicles receive what they need for optimal growth.
Anti-inflammatory properties. Inflammation can inhibit hair growth and cause scalp irritation. Using rosemary water can help reduce inflammation and soothe the scalp.
Antioxidant properties. Rosemary water may protect the scalp from damage caused by free radicals, such as UV damage and pollution, and help shield the hair follicles from oxidative stress.
Stimulate nerve growth. Carnosic acid found in rosemary has been shown to promote nerve growth, which may help revitalize the nerves surrounding hair follicles.
Even though more research is needed, numerous users have reported positive results for hair growth with regular use of rosemary water.
Rosemary water for treating dandruff

In addition to potentially stimulating hair growth, some users find rosemary water helpful in treating and preventing dandruff and an itchy scalp. The anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antifungal properties of rosemary might be the reason for this, especially since one of the causes of dandruff is yeast on the scalp.
How to make rosemary water at home

Rosemary water is surprisingly easy to make at home. With just two main ingredients — rosemary leaves and water — creating a unique hair growth concoction is simple.
Rosemary water ingredients

The recipe for rosemary water:
Fresh or dried organic rosemary leaves (fresh is best; if using dried, opt for whole leaves)
Distilled or filtered water
Optional: mint leaves to add a pleasant aroma
The following recipe is only one of many, so feel free to play around and modify it. For example, using more herbs results in a more concentrated and potent mixture.
Rosemary water recipe

Once the ingredients are ready, follow these steps to make rosemary water:
Thoroughly rinse a handful of fresh rosemary leaves and stems (about 12–24 sprigs).
In a saucepan, bring four cups of water to a boil.
Add the rosemary leaves to the boiling water, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15–20 minutes. This process allows the beneficial properties of rosemary to infuse the water, turning the liquid darker. Cover the pot while simmering to minimize evaporation.
Turn off the heat and let the concoction cool to room temperature.
Strain the liquid into a container, discarding the leaves and stems. Pour the liquid into a clean container for storage. Some users prefer to use a spray bottle or a large mason jar for easier application.
One study on rosemary tea revealed that steeping rosemary leaves for 15 minutes extracts more beneficial properties than just steeping for 5 minutes. However, don't overdo it — steeping longer than the recommended time could diminish some beneficial compounds.
Storing rosemary water

For optimal results, store homemade rosemary water in the fridge and use it within a week. Proper handling helps to prevent bacterial growth.
Using rosemary water for hair growth

The following are some common ways of applying rosemary water:
Scalp treatment Apply the rosemary water directly to the scalp and gently massage it in.
This treatment can be left in for a few hours or even overnight.
Leave-in hair rinse After shampooing and conditioning hair, soak the scalp with rosemary water as the final step of a hair-washing routine. Make sure to massage it into the scalp — do not rinse it out.
Remember, as with any DIY treatment, results vary. Therefore, monitor how the hair and scalp react to the rosemary water and adjust usage as needed.
Tips for using rosemary water

Here are some tips to help get the most out of rosemary water's potential benefits:
Conduct a patch test. Although rosemary is natural, it can cause irritation for some. It is advised to do a patch test on a visible part of the scalp to check for any adverse reactions. Apply the rosemary water to the same spot for a couple of days in a row and observe for irritation. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.
Focus on the scalp. The scalp is where rosemary exerts its hair growth benefits. Make sure to focus on the scalp when applying it and thoroughly massage it into this area. The longer the solution stays in contact with the skin, the better.
Frequency of use. Given the limited research, it's difficult to recommend an ideal frequency of use. However, many users find applying it 2–4 times a week, or some even daily, works well for them.
Patience and consistency are key. Hair growth is a slow process, so don't expect immediate results. For example, in the study comparing rosemary oil to minoxidil, noticeable changes appeared after six months.
Precautions and potential side effects

Rosemary is generally safe to use, and adverse reactions are rare. However, it's important to be aware of potential issues.
Contact dermatitis. If symptoms of contact dermatitis, such as skin redness or irritation, appear, stop using rosemary water immediately and consult a healthcare provider.
Allergy or hypersensitivity. Do not use with known allergies or hypersensitivity to rosemary or plants in the Lamiaceae or Labiatae family (mint).
Pregnant or breastfeeding. Rosemary has potential hormone-altering activity and hasn't been extensively tested on pregnant and breastfeeding individuals. Because of this, it is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Possible hair darkening. Some users have reported their hair darkening or staining due to the color of rosemary water. For lighter-colored hair or those concerned about potential staining, use fewer rosemary leaves to create a less concentrated infusion, or avoid using rosemary water.
Rosemary water is a potentially natural approach to promoting hair growth and improving scalp health. While more specific research is needed, initial studies and numerous anecdotal reports are promising. However, keep in mind that due to the many causes of hair loss, what works for one person may not work for another.”
