For over 20 years, I have worked as a natural herbalist and consumer educator on natural products. I have also done extensive research in the biologically active ingredients in natural products. I am dedicated to providing consumers with information they can use to make more intelligent purchases.
There are several natural remedies for hair loss, balding, and increased hair growth that have proven to be practical, natural, and effective for centuries. Fenugreek, also called Greek hay in English and Methi in India, is one such remedy. Originally from Southeastern Europe and Western Asia, fenugreek was discovered after a German painter used fenugreek seeds to treat his bronchitis. After several months, he noticed that besides clearing his chest, his hair had also begun to improve and even regrow in some places.
Fenugreek is a natural herb with extremely potent seeds, which have a medicinal effect to reduce balding, hair fall, and hair thinning. For hair fall and dandruff, the crushed or boiled seeds alone have been found to restore the hair shaft. The seeds contain hormone precursors that replenish hair growth. Additionally, fenugreek seeds are a good source of nicotinic acid and protein. Protein is highly important in rebuilding and strengthening the hair shaft. In fact, protein balanced diets are emphasized to reduce hair loss and stimulating hair growth. The amount of protein in fenugreek alone may explain its restorative ability on damaged or falling hair.
Doctors and herbalists have also indicated that fenugreek contains a large amount of lecithin, a natural emollient known to strengthen and moisturize hair. By being packed with such powerful nutrients, many natural herbalists, and even Western Asia beauticians, use fenugreek in hair care products to promote growth, luster, health, and shine.
You can purchase fenugreek seeds from your local herb store. To create a hair growth tonic, boil the fenugreek seeds and allow them to soak in extra virgin coconut oil overnight. In the morning, sift the seeds out and apply the coconut oil mixture to your scalp. Massage the oil into your hair and scalp for 5-10 minutes.
Do this consistently for 3 months to see results
If you are not familiar or feel uncomfortable about using natural herbs yourself, as you should exercise extreme caution and safety, many companies are now opting to provide natural hair growth products that contain herbs, such as fenugreek. The most popular and reputable supplier is Beauty 4 Ashes Christian Health & Beauty. Beauty 4 Ashes ® provides an array of natural hair growth products that contain fenugreek, amla, coconut oil, and a host of other proven natural herbs for hair growth. Their products are available for purchase online at wwwdiscoverb4acom.
