Our hair is made up of a protein known as keratin that is produced in the hair follicles. As the follicles produce new hair cells, old ones are pushed out of the surface of the skin.
Don’t panic if you find a few stray hairs on your hairbrush from time to time. Adults lose an average of 100 hair strands a day.
While hair loss is a sign of aging, a busy lifestyle and chemical hair products can contribute to this as well. The best way to deal with hair problems is naturally so that there are no side effects.
The best part of natural hair treatments is that most, if not all, of the ingredients, can be found in your home. Not only are they convenient to make, but these ingredients won’t have harsh chemicals that will damage your hair in the long run.
For long lasting results, check out these 6 tips for natural hair growth:
Onion Juice
Onions contain sulfur that boosts collagen production in the tissues that help hair grow. While the smell can seem foul, it goes away after one rinse.
Cut a few slices of onion and squeeze the juice out my mashing or grating. Apply this to your scalp for 10-15 minutes a day a rinse off with a mild shampoo.
If you don’t have onions, potato juice will do just as well. Repeat the same steps above with a potato.

Apple Cider Vinegar
Vinegar cleanses your scalp to maintain the pH balance of your hair to accelerate growth. Apple cider vinegar solutions will give your hair an added shine and boost growth.
Create a diluted solution by mixing 15 ml of apple cider vinegar and a cup of warm water. After washing your hair, apply this solution as a final rinse.

Eggs contain high levels of proteins that help to form new hair. They are also rich in sulfur, zinc, iron, selenium, phosphorous, and iodine.
Not only can egg masks make hair stronger, but they can also contribute to healthy, glowing skin.
