What Can I Do To Grow My Hair Back After Hair Loss?
1. Stop stress at the source.
It’s your mind and emotions that trigger your body to feel stressed out. So find things and thoughts that help get you back to an un-stressed peace of mind.
If you are experiencing the loss of a loved one, think about and concentrate on the blessings in those who are still here. But if you are experiencing the loss of a job, count your blessings for the life you still have. If you are stressed in your relationship, be rest assured that you are still a great person through and through no matter how your mate has treated/is treating you.
2. Begin to eat foods that help stimulate hair growth.
Foods like beans and dark greens such as spinach and kale are good for hair growth.
Also try fruit like blueberries, kiwi, and strawberries. They are all good sources of vitamins and minerals to help your hair grow.
3. Try a hair growth stimulator.
Minoxidil is a direct hair growth stimulator and used for hair loss control in some cases of telogen effluvium; it helps to resume the anagen growth phase from telogen, resting hair follicles.
When the body experiences a stressful event such as injury, surgery, or illness it responds by targeting all its energy to recovering from the problem, rather than growing hair, nails, and so on. Many hair follicles enter into a resting stage prematurely. Hair from the resting follicles begins to fall out at a noticeable rate two to three months after the initial problem. You might notice big handfuls in your brush or comb, or on the floor.
This type of stress-related hair loss is certainly alarming, but there is no cause for concern.
You can’t go bald from telogen effluvium hair loss, although on some days it may seem like you might.
Experts assure us that hair loss from this form of stress will return in six to nine months. It will likely be just as thick and healthy as ever.
