Hair can be damaged for various reasons….unhealthy diet, pollution, travelling, sun exposure etc. For things which have worked for me are – Cantharidine hair oil – I swear by this hair oil and have been using it for more than 25yrs now, over time it will improve the hair texture and protect it, it also helps in regrowing of hair.
For hair loss try mintop hair solution from dr reddys..it helped me a lot and you’ll see the difference in 2 weeks only with regular usage.
For home remedies incorporate nuts in your diet like almonds, walnuts etc. Also make sure your iron n calcium content is normal and drink loads of water!
Try using shampoos n conditioners free of silicons n sulphates
Hope this helps 🙂

Hi Pari..u r right..my hair looks nice and healthy because of eating nuts regularly 🙂

Plz mail yur queries.
Parita, can canthardine oil be used along with another oil – say homemade oil or just plain coconut oil or does it have to be used as a standalone product?
Mintop solution needs a derma prescription right? or can we just buy it OTC?
sandhya akka is it available in chennai
No idea Nisita.
k akka
In our country u don’t need a prescription for anything! 😛 But yea…it’d be wise to consult a derma 1st b4 buying this. Ive used mintop looong back on the prescription of my doc. It was like some miracle solution. Frankly, it scared me a bit…new hair just started sprouting from my forehead n all. I don’t think I used it fully.
Seriouslyy?? It sprouts that quickly?? Omg! That’s like quick gun murugan. sorry for the PJ 😛
I went to the derma on saturday and am suffering from adult acne **sob sob**. I will still try Mintop 😛
:rotfl: :rotfl: Mind it! :guns: :laugh:
:guns: Take it back! :rotfl: :rotfl: But, is Mintop solution used for hairfall or hairloss.? mine is hairfall ..
Hehe, I may be the only one but I liked ur PJ Sandy!
Nafi liked it too 😛 And yea thankies for laughing at it 😀
I recognized ur talent as I too have that!
:rotfl: :rotfl: Maybe thts why they say birds of a feather flock together 😀
hi-5!
Mintop…wow ..it can really bring hair back..what u saying Nafisa :O
seriously ana…i started getting like short hair sprouting from my forehead. It looked like the fringe actress Sadana had :pain: It was weird coz my friends thought I’d cut my hair like that :struggle:
Wow I should try it then, how do we use it Naf?
U guess it’s a liquid that used to come in a glass bottle with a rubber dropper. u have to apply it on your scalp. I think :-/ It’s been really long…don’t remember that well…sorry. It might have changed now
hehehe..actually i just imagined u like that :rotfl:shorry but i can’t control my laughter.
hey pushp,
use yoghurt on hair twice every week,do hot oil massage with mixure of oils like olive oil/coconut oil/sesame oil/ every week, :kissed: use fresh aloevera with hibiscus leaves as a hair mask, :clap: soak fenugreek seeds at night in curd and make it a paste by adding some more curd in the morning and apply to nourish the hair and increase its lenght…. :yes:
aloevera and yoghurt can solve everything but be patient,it takes time… :heart:
hope it helps…gud luck girl :-*
now I am taking notes 🙂 thanks for these awesome tips!
OLIVE OIL.. is the best remedy!!
whenever u wash ur hair..keep olive oil over night and wash next day..u will see ur hair has improved n will become soft and manageable again!
also use LOREAL ABSOLUT REPAIR HAIR CONDITIONER its best for treated hair!
luv n luck
Ric! :-))
which olive hair oil u use Rick?
I have finished a OLIO Olive oil bottle which i got from local chemist shop! that really helped me!
n now I am using FIGARO OLIVE OIL…A! :-))
ya erica olive oil works awesome superb for me… its the best for dry or damaged hair… :yes:
Hey best of luck with ur venture… ur so creative… wish u all success.. :-* :yippee: :clover:
thank u sooo much..Ifee!! :-* :hug-makeup: :hug-makeup:
i too liked the conditioner n shapoo erica…
shamppoo n conditioner both are awesome..Pavani!! :-)) :yes:
i dont know why.. my hair is dry with oily roots… yoghurt n egg does not work on my hair at all…. i dont see any shine or softness.. why why… and i wash with mild shikakai mix not even shampoo… still nothing… 🙁
Ife try deep conditioning then.. Shud work.. 🙂 It works for me.. I still haven’t figured out how to deal with the frizz in my hair :-/
ya .. i do deep conditioning with oil always.. works great for me thanks S …. :-))
I fight back with a serum…works for me..
Heheh.. Fight back eh 😛 Funnily serum makes my hair limp – it goes from being hay dry to looking like it just drank a litre of oil.
try using the least minimum sandhya… then maybe it will work… I know serums contain silicone so not good for long term use etc… but with serum i can reduce breakage and lessen the frequency of shampooing etc.. just take care dont use on roots though.. :-))
I have the dove serum with me.. Will use minimal amounts of it and see how it works 🙂 Lemon / apple vinegar for the last rinse also reduces frizziness .. tried it?
yes! i have tried both but i hate the apple vinegar fragrance..
no…. will try lemon.. acv u dont get here… havent seen anywhere..
Hey ife! Nice dp u look great
tx.. 😛
Hi there,
i’ve been going thru your posts for damaged hair.. Just a suggestion try using himalaya hair care products they are free from sodium and sulphates they work as a mild cleanser for your hair.
Also you can Badam shirin oil it would reduce your hair fall and help grow new hair. Also avoid ironing, blow drying or curling your hair for few months so that your hair texture improves.
Include nuts in your diest like walnut, almond and pistachio. Don’t take too much of stress eat right and take good amount of sleep.
And if you want you can try doing keratin treatment that really helps and does miracle to your hair.. its my own experience i’d very dry and frizzy hair.. Thanks to the treatment its 5 months now and i’m happy how my hair looks now..
God luck..
Meenakshi :-))
You might want to try this – go in for deep conditioning – warm some oil (any oil of your choice) and then wrap a towel soaked in lukewarm water over your head for a little while and then use a good hair pack like fenugreek paste with curd and eggs or henna. then wash it off.. do this on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, there will be definite improvement.
Take care of your diet – lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, if possible eat a bowl of sprouts every single day, they take bland, but are packed with nutrients.
Drink lots of water and sleep well.
That was a looooong comment, hope you find it useful!
hiiii pushp u can use fenugreek seeds as hair mask first soak it in water whole night then next day morning make it paste and mix with curd and apply ur hair for half hour and wash it use twice a week and after month use it once a week u get result
i swear by this…it increased my lenght to two-folds some yrs back….
Do add more nuts and take oil bath on alternate days..bcz talking head rinse daily will also lead to dry hair.
Heat coconut oil and curry leaves, later filter the curry leaves and take an oil massage with it.
Use mixture of oils like coconut oil, olive oil, almond oil and apply it and leave it on overnight n wash it in the morning.
try to take food rich in iron.
Give a lemon rinse after taking bath which will help to condition your hair.
lemon rinse should be diluted otherwise it can cause irritation.:)
yes A..lemon rinse diluted in water or else it ll be too much concentrated..
:yes::yes:
shabaa…check ur email!
replied dear.. :-))
bookmarked this post :nerd:
I use a great hair product that is helping me a lot, it’s Pro Naturals Moroccan Argan Oil which works amazing, it protects the hair, makes it stronger and keeps it soft, shiny and healthy. :tap-dance: :rock-n-roll:
do try henna hair pack and also use Biotique bio musk root. it will give fabulous results..
Interesting article! I love argan oil because it has tons of benefits and it’s super light on my hair, not greasy. I use Pro Naturals Moroccan Argan Oil hair treatment and my hair is shinier, stronger, healthier and longer 🙂
Thas great..even i am testing aragon oil on my hair and its working nicely 🙂
does henna helps hair growth ?:-)
i don think so.
i mean henna with added herbs wil not help
Try pure olive oil or pure coconut oil as a mask! Put it in your hair, comb it through and leave it for at least an hour or leave it overnight. It really helps with my dry and damaged hair! If you have split ends, put some extra product in your ends.
When you style your hair, make sure you keep your hair moisturized well with products special for dry and damaged hair. And again: extra in the ends 🙂
hey! Thanks for the tips.
