Immediately after the procedure, you need to wrap your head in a warm cloth, and after 2 hours wash it using your favorite shampoo. To prevent an unpleasant onion smell from emanating from your hair, you can add a couple of drops of a strong essential aroma, for example, bergamot or rosemary, to the detergent;
• take 1 tablespoon of natural aloe juice, or agave, freshly squeezed carrot juice, cognac and castor oil. Pour 1 teaspoon of natural lemon juice and 1 chicken or 2 quail yolks into this mixture. Next, you should mix all the ingredients well and apply the prepared composition to your hair, and after half an hour wash yourself in the usual way;

Ways to prepare folk masks for hair loss

Hair loss and incipient baldness very often affects women and men of different ages. If you start the treatment of this disease in a timely manner, folk remedies will help to cope with it. At the same time, if you start the process, after a while only a professional trichologist will be able to save your hair.

In order to prevent baldness, at the first signs of the disease, it is necessary to help your hair with the help of special effective compositions based on folk remedies.

At home, you can prepare masks for hair loss with folk remedies according to one of the following recipes:

• take 3 tablespoons of natural aloe juice and mix it with 1 tablespoon of honey, which should be warmed up a little beforehand. Introduce 1 chicken or 2 quail yolks into this mixture, mix all the components thoroughly and apply the prepared composition to the curls and scalp. Leave the mask for half an hour and then wash off with warm water without using detergents. To achieve the maximum possible effect, pour about 5-10 ml of garlic juice into this mixture, and after the procedure, rinse your hair with a decoction of one of the medicinal plants, for example, chamomile, mint, nettle or burdock root. In this case, it is recommended to wash your hair with cool water to get rid of the unpleasant garlic odor. If this is not effective, you can add a few drops of a strong essential scent such as rosemary or bergamot to the water;
• mix henna powder with fresh kefir until a mass resembling low-fat sour cream in consistency is obtained. Rub the prepared composition into the scalp and distribute over the curls, then wrap the head with polyethylene and a warm cloth, and after about half an hour wash with warm water. It should be borne in mind that such a mask can cause a slight change in the color of the hair, and in some cases this color becomes heterogeneous. To prevent this from happening, it is recommended to take colorless henna powder for the preparation of this remedy;
• The next mask of fruits and berries not only stops the loss of hair follicles, but also perfectly nourishes the curls along the entire length. The following recipe will help you prepare it: take 3 tablespoons of mashed fruit or berry pulp, for example, avocados, melons, bananas, strawberries, and so on. If you have dry or normal hair, mix fruit and berry puree with 1 tablespoon of oil and glycerin. Girls and women with oily hair and scalp need to combine this mass with a tablespoon of any honey. Regardless of the composition of the mask, it should be mixed well and applied to your hair, and after 25 minutes wash your hair;
• Pour a handful of raisins with boiling water, put this container on fire and boil a little, and then set aside and insist for 2 hours. After that, the raisins must be crushed into a gruel using a blender, add about 5-10 grams of wheat or lime honey, 10 ml of olive oil or any other oil that is used for cosmetic purposes, for example, burdock or castor oil, a pinch of table salt and chicken yolk. All components should be thoroughly mixed until a homogeneous mass is obtained, applied in the usual way to your hair, and after an hour wash with warm water;
• do not forget about the healing properties of essential products. Just a few drops of these scents can work wonders and give your hair a new life. In particular, the following mask will help you effectively fight excessive hair loss: warm a tablespoon of honey in a water bath. After that, you should well dissolve in it 3-4 drops of essential aromas of cedar and rosemary, add chicken yolk and a little olive oil and mix everything thoroughly. You should have a homogeneous mass with a thin consistency. Before applying this folk mask for hair loss, wash your hair, and then apply the prepared mass to the scalp and wet strands. During application, it is recommended to lightly massage the hair follicles with your fingertips. After that, you need to wrap your hair with polyethylene and a warm cloth, and after half an hour wash it with laundry soap.

Regular use of all these masks with folk remedies against hair loss is very effective, but only when the balding process is not at an advanced stage.

In this situation, you need to consult a trichologist, without wasting time - this is the only way you can save your curls.
