Hair Treatment - Preventing Hair Loss

Good hair care treatment can help prevent hair loss. Following a good hair care regime can help improve hair quality while adding volume and strength to dull, brittle or damaged hair.

Are you worried about losing your hair and believe that nothing can be done about your thinning hairline? Well, there is a lot that can be done to prevent hair loss as well as to add volume to your receding hairline.

First and foremost, the most important step towards hair care treatment starts with:

Scalp Massage
Everybody is familiar with this advice that is as old as the hills, but has to be applied seriously and regularly in order to have the desired benefits. A good massage on your scalp can really work wonders for you. This is because it greatly stimulates your hair follicles as well as cleaning out sterile oil glands. This would be extremely beneficial for the health and growth of your hair, as well as resulting in a healthier scalp. Medical science has proved this fact, a healthy scalp in every aspect means stronger and healthier hair.

Hair wash
In order to prevent hair loss or to treat dull or falling hair, medical scientists have greatly advised proper hair care regime and most importantly the correct way to wash your hair. This includes the following steps:

- First of all, the most important thing required for proper hair washing is to choose the shampoo that suits your hair type, as well as your scalp condition. If you are suffering from severe hair loss, then choose a correct hair loss shampoo, either herbal or medicated. Using a good hair loss shampoo will effectively help remove the layers of oil accumulated in the hair and will greatly condition your hair. If you follow this technique, you will be sure to improve your hair condition, gradually but effectively.

- When washing your hair in the winter, you should always use lukewarm water, possibly using cold water to rinse the ends. This means that you must avoid using hot water on your hair.

- Another significant step is the avoidance of using large quantities of shampoo on your hair. Doctors have advised the usage of a twenty cent coin-size quantity of shampoo.

- When washing your hair, remember not to use your fingernails for scratching the scalp, use your fingers for gently massaging your scalp instead.

- It is also important to ensure that you rinse the shampoo off the hair completely so that no chemicals are left on the scalp, which can cause blockages of the pores and hair loss.

- It is advisable to apply conditioner only to the ends of your hair and never onto the scalp.

- Another significant point to be followed is that you should not use a hair dryer on the hair. Blow drying very often results in increased hair loss.

If you follow all of the above steps of hair treatment and hair care it can help to prevent any further hair loss, as well as adding volume, shine and strength to your dull or damaged hair.

Why is my 4 year old gelding losing his mane and tail?
This spring, he had a gorgeous, long mane and tail. Little by little, it seems to be falling out. I can see the regrowth coming back, but its not nearly as fast as what is falling out!!! He is a quarter thoroughbred cross. Dark grulla in color. There is no signs of sunburn, no lice, he has not been rubbing it out (I have been watching for this), he has been wormed and vaccinated recently. I started to notice this a little bit, when I took some burrs out of his mane, but thought maybe I was just a little rough to get some hair to pull out. His tail once touched the ground and was thick and full, now very thin and wispy and just passes his hocks. His body has no signs of hair loss, actually his coat is stunningly beautiful. It has rained quite a bit recently, and no sign of rain rot. I have had horses my whole life and never seen this before. Any help is appreciated. . . . He has salt and mineral blocks available to him at all times. He is on a great grass pasture with no weeds that should be any problem with his diet. He is not a stressed horse at all. He is with two others that seem to be keeping all their hair in tact. : )

I am very worried about ringworm?
About a week ago I have decided to adopt a stray cat. We dont let her in the house, but she is always hanging around outside. I cuddle and hug her a lot, and am sure that my hair has touched her more than once. Her friend then came (the two sleep together, play together, curl up together) ect. I am going to take the cat I decided to adopt to the vet in a few days, but I obviously wont take her friend. I heard that ringworm can make your hair fall out. Is this true? If it is, if nothing has happened to me by now is it likely that my cat has it? If the cat I decided to adopt has ringworm, I will obviously find out and know to treat myself. But what if her friend has ringworm? I have touched her several times as well. I really really dont want my hair to fall out as it is very long and it took me ages to get it that way. Help? Alexia P.S. Neither cat show any sign of hair loss. Well, the friend has a patch above each eye where there is a TINY amount of hairloss (you can barely see it) but I think that is her fur as she is a mixture of tabby and white. Some people seem to say that, other people seem to say your hair only falls out once the condition goes for a while untreated, other people say your hair falls out immediately. Can I have a straight answer please? I am very confused :/ Oes it show a lot when the hair breaks off?
