Accelerating hair growth using home remedies sounds too good to be true? Well you are in for a treat as it is indeed possible! Castor oil can help you initiate hair growth at a faster rate by massaging it into your scalp and roots. As if that wasn’t good enough, it also prevents thinning of hair and makes them less likely to break.
The presence of triglycerides of ricinoleic acid are primarily responsible for the spurt in hair growth. They also have anti-fungal properties and vitamin E which is rich in antioxidants. Every week, apply the oil from root to tip and let it stay for an hour or two before washing it off with water. Many people find castor oil to be too greasy which does not come off easily from hair. To counter this problem, mix a bit of coconut or olive oil with it to make it less sticky. With regular use, you are sure to find a difference. If you are someone who is at an advanced stage of hair loss, you will need some medical assistance as well, so visit a trichologist at the earliest.
