Home Remedies to Reverse Hair Thinning & Hair Fall
Hair fall and thinning can feel overwhelming—but the good news is, it’s often fixable. If you’re noticing more hair on your pillow, in your brush, or down the shower drain, you’re not alone. Many people go through this at some point. The key is to treat your hair gently and give your scalp the right kind of care and nutrition.
In this post, we’ll walk you through simple home remedies and tips to help reduce hair fall and support stronger, thicker hair—naturally.
Diet Changes
What you eat shows up in your hair. A weak, dull, or thinning strand is often a sign that your body isn’t getting the nutrients it needs.
What to do:
- Add more protein: Hair is mostly made of protein, so include foods like eggs, lentils, tofu, fish, and chicken in your meals.
- Include iron-rich foods: Spinach, pumpkin seeds, beetroot, and legumes help carry oxygen to your hair roots.
- Drink enough water: Hydration helps your scalp stay healthy and avoid dryness.
- Try supplements (only after checking with a doctor): Sometimes hair loss is caused by low levels of Vitamin D, B12, zinc, or iron.
Making small improvements in your daily meals can make a big difference over time.
Natural Oils
Oiling your hair is an old and trusted remedy—and it still works! The right kind of oiling routine can boost blood flow to your scalp, reduce dryness or itching, and help your hair grow stronger.
Try This: NeemTree Calming Hair Oil
This is not your regular hair oil. NeemTree is made with a calming mix of neem, tea tree, and rosemary oils that:
- Reduce itchiness and dandruff
- Soothe redness and inflammation
- Stimulate the roots for healthier growth
Use it once or twice a week. Massage into your scalp for a few minutes, then leave it on for an hour or overnight before washing.
Why this works:
- Massaging the scalp improves blood flow, which wakes up sleepy hair follicles.
- Neem and tea tree fight bacteria and dandruff—perfect for people with itchy or flaky scalps.
- Rosemary oil has been shown to support hair regrowth by stimulating hair roots over time.
Oiling consistently gives your scalp the nutrients it needs to stay healthy.
Proper Wash Care
Washing your hair too often—or with the wrong products—can damage it. Many shampoos strip your scalp of natural oils, while heavy conditioners can weigh hair down.
Try This Wash Day Routine:
- CocoClear Shampoo
A gentle, detox shampoo made with charcoal and fermented rice water. It cleans the scalp deeply, removes product build-up, and soothes itchiness—without drying out your curls or waves.
- Moringa Restore Conditioner
A thick, creamy conditioner with moringa, ceramides, and amino acids. It deeply hydrates dry hair, makes it smooth, and helps reduce breakage and thinning.
Use them together once or twice a week for a clean, nourished, and balanced wash day.
Why this works:
- Cleansing the scalp properly prevents blocked hair follicles, which can cause thinning.
- Detox ingredients like charcoal lift out dirt and build-up from styling products and pollution.
- Conditioning protects your hair strands, especially the ends, so they don’t break off easily.
- Moringa and ceramides strengthen the hair from the inside and lock in moisture.
A healthy scalp = stronger hair growth.
Causes of Hair Loss
Before starting any remedy, it’s helpful to understand what could be causing your hair to fall or thin.
Common causes include:
- Poor diet or low iron/protein levels
- Stress, anxiety, or sudden trauma
- Hormonal changes (pregnancy, PCOS, menopause)
- Heat styling or chemical treatments
- Certain medications
- Hereditary hair loss (like pattern baldness)
- Medical conditions like thyroid issues or alopecia
Some of these can be improved at home, while others may need a doctor’s help.
Why These Remedies Work
Home Remedies Work Best When:
- Your hair fall is recent or mild
- It’s linked to stress, diet, or poor hair habits
- You have scalp issues like flaking, itchiness, or buildup
- Your hair is dry, brittle, or breaking from the middle or ends
In these cases, giving your scalp regular care and feeding your body with the right nutrients can help reverse the damage over time.
When You Should See a Doctor:
- You suddenly start losing a lot of hair in patches
- There’s redness, pain, or scaling on your scalp
- Your hairline is noticeably thinning or receding
- You’ve had a recent illness or major weight loss
- Hair loss runs in your family and keeps getting worse
A doctor or dermatologist can test for any underlying conditions and suggest treatments like minoxidil, hormone therapy, or medical procedures like PRP.
Final Thoughts
Hair thinning isn’t something you have to just accept. With the right care, a little patience, and consistency, your hair can grow back stronger.
Start small: improve your meals, oil your hair once a week, and use gentle, nourishing wash-day products.
Your hair can flourish—it just needs the right care.
