There are several things you may do to delay or halt hair loss. But what to do depends on the cause why you’re losing your hair.

You can follow this few hair tips to improve your overall hair health and possibly prevent hair loss.

1. Regular Washing

Washing your hair on a regular basis may help to prevent hair loss by maintaining a healthy and clean scalp. It's important to use a gentle shampoo. Using harsher formulas can cause hair to dry out and break, resulting in thinning and baldness.

2. Coconut Oil

Hair is protected from breaking by the lauric acid in coconut oil, which helps the protein in the hair stick together. Better blood flow and hair renewal may be helped by massaging coconut oil into the scalp.

3. Gentle Styling

Avoid tight braids or ponytails that might cause excessive shedding at the root. Let your hair air dry while you're doing it to prevent aggravating your scalp. Curling and straightening irons and other heat styling tools may potentially weaken or break the hair's strands.

4. Hair Processing

Hair and scalp may be damaged by chemical treatments, such as perms or hair dye. If you're interested in avoiding chemicals that include ammonia, peroxide, or paraphenylenediamine, talk to your stylist about organic hair dyes (PPD).
