Here are some methods to help regrow hair in bald areas.
1. Scalp massage
A study published in the journal Eplasty found that scalp massage improves blood flow, delivering nutrients and oxygen to hair follicles, thus promoting hair growth, while also helping to relieve stress.
2. Maintain scalp health
A clean, healthy scalp promotes hair growth by preventing clogged follicles and buildup. Apply shampoo to the scalp, rather than the entire length of the hair, to wash away product buildup and dead skin on the scalp, says the American Academy of Dermatology.
3. Exercise regularly
Part of regrowing hair in bald areas lies in daily exercise, especially in the neck area. Exercise improves blood flow, which in turn helps essential nutrients reach the hair follicles, says dermatologist Dr. Priyanka Kuri.
4. Use products containing collagen
Oral collagen peptide supplementation may aid hair regrowth and strengthen hair, according to a study published in the Journal of Functional Foods.
5. Use rosemary oil
A study published in the journal Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology found that rosemary oil has anti-inflammatory properties that can help improve blood circulation in the scalp. So, rub rosemary oil on your bald spots every day.
6. Use ginseng extract
A study published in the journal Preventive Nutrition and Food Science found that red ginseng extract stimulates hair follicle growth. By creating a hair mask with ginseng extract and a little coconut oil, apply it to the scalp and hair, and leave it on for 20 to 30 minutes.
7. Use geranium essential oil
Research published in BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies suggests that geranium essential oil is a great home remedy for baldness. Mix 2 tablespoons of avocado oil, 1 tablespoon of argan oil, 10 drops of vitamin E oil, 8 drops of geranium oil, and 5 drops of lavender oil and apply to the bald spot.
