Hair loss and shedding is a natural process that affects each of us. So you don’t have to be immediately alarmed when you find a few strands of hair on your comb.
In fact, we lose 50 to 100 hairs every day, most of which grow back.
However, if your hair gradually thins over time, its regrowth may stop.
Gradually, bald patches may form on your head, dandruff may also appear, and hair loss can become permanent. Not necessarily irreversible, though.

If this problem concerns you, then you have probably already tried several commercial hair growth products that promise miracles.
The problem is that most of them do not work at all. They cost you not only money and time, but also unnecessary effort.
Today we will therefore reveal a natural recipe that many people have had positive experiences with for strengthening and restoring hair growth. In addition, it is easily available, inexpensive and simple to prepare.
You will need the following 3 things:
1. Castor oil
This oil has a high content of ricinoleic acid, which penetrates the scalp to the roots and nourishes them.
It also regulates the scalp’s pH and prevents hair loss and the formation of dandruff.
2. Egg yolk
Egg yolks are rich in vitamins, proteins and fatty acids that strengthen hair roots.
They also contain vitamin E. This stimulates hair growth and also hydrates the skin. And finally, they also contain a lot of lecithin, which prevents hair breakage and split ends.

Honey is rich in antioxidants that soften hair and strengthen hair roots and the scalp.
They also support hair growth, protect it from falling out and make it more supple.
