• Apply a mixture of Amla oil, coconut oil, and 1 tbsp of lemon juice.  The oils should be in equal portions. Apply this on the scalp at night and wash it off with cold water in the morning.
• Stop hair loss using Saw Palmetto. It stops or blocks the production of DHT which is one of the primary cause.  This is perfect for men.  It also treats enlargement of the prostate.
• Nettle root: It does not only treat the loss or baldness but it also regenerates the  growth.
