More lush hair, whether long or short, is everyone's ultimate desire. Unfortunately, the occurrence of increased hair loss and slower hair growth has become increasingly common in recent years, due to various influences. The now iconic Olival Fenugreek and Rosemary Lotion against Hair Loss and Rosemary and Clove Scalp Oil are great help in stimulating hair growth, but our habits and lifestyle also have a significant impact. Below, we bring you all the details and the top 5 tips that are good to pay attention to when it comes to stimulating hair growth.
1. Scalp massage - because nothing without stimulating circulation
Let's face it, we tend to buy a lot of products to reduce hair loss and stimulate hair growth, but the question is whether we use their full potential. In addition to regular use, it is crucial (but really crucial) to apply scalp products with regular scalp massage because it promotes the absorption and action of the ingredients and the flow of nutrients to the follicles. Even when we are not applying the product itself, it is good to massage the scalp - preferably every day and again, if possible, do it for as long as possible.
How to massage the scalp? It is important not to rub the scalp on the surface, but to "anchor" the cheekbones of the fingers in fixed positions and move the skin instead. You can also use massagers for massage, but when choosing, make sure that they have round ends that do not harm the roots or hair. If you wonder who has time for that, turn on your favorite series, movie or podcast and simply - start massaging. The difference in the effect of the product is huge, and if you do not massage your scalp, there is a possibility that any results of Fenugreek and Rosemary Hair Loss Lotion or Rosemary Clove Scalp Oil will simply be unsatisfactory.
2. Proper nutrition – because nutrients are fuel for growth
You have probably encountered the phenomenon of hair loss after a severe diet or illness. Hair growth simply means a balanced diet rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals, and in enough calories properly distributed throughout the day. Include in your diet foods rich in biotin (eggs, nuts), vitamin D (fish, dairy products), iron (spinach, red meat) and omega-3 fatty acids (salmon, flax seeds). In the case of long-term hair loss, it is necessary to visit a doctor, be sure to check your blood count and vitamin and mineral status, and in case of deficiency, supplement as needed and according to individual medical recommendations. Hair care takes place from the inside as well as from the outside.
3. Wash your hair regularly – because it's the same as your skin, just like your face
If the trend of "training" the scalp to be less oily hasn't come to an end yet, we hope it does soon, because nothing good comes of it. The scalp is skin with pores, just like our face. We cleanse and wash our face twice a day because it's necessary, but what about the scalp? Washing your hair once a week, once every ten days, or even less often can lead to clogged follicles with sebum, styling product residue, and other impurities. In that case, increased hair growth simply can't happen. Hair needs to be washed more regularly, depending on individual hair needs and lifestyle habits. Even washing it daily is a better option for the scalp in the long run than washing it every week. For regular hair washing, it's good to use a sulfate-free shampoo like Amla Shampoo, and for deep cleansing and stimulating hair growth, use Fenugreek Shampoo.
4. Hair length care – because cutting does not stimulate growth
Cutting your hair does not stimulate hair growth, meaning it cannot have any effect on hair loss or lack of density. However, damaged ends break easily and thus slow down growth because breakage results in loss of length. Rough handling of hair, as well as inadequate care, can cause breakage and damage. To increase hair elasticity, apply oil packs before washing and limit the use of heat tools such as curling irons as much as possible. It is also a great option to introduce satin pillowcases or a satin sleeping cap, which helps eliminate friction and preserve the integrity of the hair.
5. Stress reduction – because even hidden stress affects your hair
When we think of stress, the first associations are college, work, obligations. But stress is any activity (or lack thereof) that puts the body in a state of imbalance. These can be the aforementioned diets or excessive fasting, not enough calories, lack of nutrients, overly intense workouts... Think about your lifestyle and try to introduce balance through habits that are sustainable in the long term.
