DIY Hair Loss Treatment

 DIY Hair Loss Treatment: Expert Tips from Dr. Bansal Hair Rebirth Centre

Hair loss is more than just a cosmetic issue — it affects confidence, self-esteem, and even emotional well‐being. At Dr. Bansal Hair Rebirth Centre, based in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, we understand this deeply. While our clinic offers advanced medical therapies, we also believe in empowering our patients with simple, safe, and effective do-it-yourself (DIY) hair loss treatments that you can use at home.

Why Consider DIY Remedies?

Not everyone with hair thinning or shedding needs to jump immediately to clinical procedures. DIY methods can be a powerful supporting strategy. They:

Nourish the scalp naturally

Improve blood circulation

Strengthen weak hair

Help manage stress — a common trigger for hair loss

Are typically affordable, low-risk, and easy to maintain

That said, DIY treatments work best when used with consistency, patience, and the right expectations. For serious or persistent hair loss (like patchy alopecia areata or rapid shedding), it's always wise to consult a specialist — such as Dr. Bansal’s team.

Understanding the Causes of Hair Loss

According to Dr. Bansal, hair loss can arise from a variety of factors:

Hormonal imbalances (e.g., DHT sensitivity)

Poor nutrition or nutrient deficiencies

Stress and lifestyle issues

Scalp infections or inflammation

Underlying medical conditions (like thyroid issues or alopecia areata)

Harsh hair-care habits

DIY treatments are not a panacea, but they can support healthier hair growth and reduce further loss when combined with good habits and, if needed, clinical treatments.

Top DIY Treatments Recommended by Dr. Bansal

Here are some expert-backed home remedies recommended by Dr. Bansal Hair Rebirth Centre to help tackle hair loss naturally:

1. Onion Juice Therapy

Why it works: Onion juice is rich in sulfur, which supports collagen production and improves blood flow to the scalp. Several anecdotal reports suggest benefit, particularly for patchy hair loss.

+1

How to use:

Blend or grate one medium onion and extract its juice.

Do a patch test first to check for irritation.

Apply to the scalp using a cotton pad or your fingers.

Leave on for about 30 minutes, then rinse off using a mild, herbal or sulfate-free shampoo.

Use twice a week.

2. Aloe Vera Massage

Why it works: Aloe vera helps soothe irritated scalps, reduce dandruff, and unblock clogged hair follicles. 

Healthline

+1

How to use:

Use fresh aloe vera gel (from the plant) or pure store-bought gel.

Massage gently into the scalp for a few minutes.

Leave on for 30–45 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water.

Repeat 2–3 times per week.

3. DIY Hair Oil Blend (Dr. Bansal’s Signature Recipe)

Ingredients:

100 ml coconut oil

2 tablespoons castor oil

1 tablespoon black-seed (kalonji) oil

1 teaspoon fenugreek (methi) seeds

A handful of curry leaves

How to prepare:

Warm the coconut oil gently, then add methi seeds and curry leaves.

Cook until the leaves brown lightly.

Add castor oil and black-seed oil, mix, and let the oil cool.

Strain the oil into a clean glass bottle.

Application:

Warm a little oil before use.

Massage into the scalp for 8–10 minutes.

Leave it in for at least an hour, or overnight if possible, before washing.

Use this oil blend 1–2 times a week for best results.

This blend nourishes hair from the roots, strengthens follicles, and reduces breakage.

4. Green Tea Rinse

Why it works: Green tea is rich in antioxidants (especially catechins) that can stimulate hair follicles and may help reduce hair loss.

How to use:

Brew 2 green tea bags in 2 cups of hot water.

Let it cool completely.

After shampooing, pour the tea slowly over your scalp and hair as a final rinse.

Do not rinse again with plain water — let the tea sit for some time.

5. Nutrition & Diet

A critical pillar of hair health is diet. Dr. Bansal emphasizes that what you eat shows up on your scalp.

Key nutrients to include:

Protein: Eggs, dal, paneer, soy

Iron: Leafy greens, beetroot, pumpkin seeds

Biotin: Almonds, walnuts, sweet potatoes

Omega-3s: Flaxseeds, chia seeds, walnuts

Lifestyle tips:

Stay well-hydrated

Minimize junk food

Support gut health (because gut and scalp health are linked)

Consider a blood test to check for deficiencies (iron, vitamin D, B-complex)

6. Scalp Massage & Relaxation

Why it matters: Massage stimulates blood circulation to the scalp, which helps nourish hair follicles. 

Healthline

How to do it:

Use your fingertips (not nails) to massage the scalp in small circular motions.

Spend 4–5 minutes daily (even a short massage helps).

Combine with stress-relief practices: deep breathing (pranayama), gentle yoga, or meditation.

You can also try Balayam (nail rubbing) or gentle inversion poses if your health allows.

7. DIY Hair Mask

Avocado + Curd Mask:

Mash 1 ripe avocado + 2 tablespoons of curd + 1 teaspoon of olive oil.

Apply to scalp and hair from roots to tips.

Leave on for 30–45 minutes, then wash off with mild shampoo.

This mask helps nourish, reduce breakage, and add shine.

8. Avoid Hair-Damage Triggers

Even the best DIY remedies can be undone by bad hair habits. According to Dr. Bansal, avoid:

Hot water for washing hair

Excessive heat styling (straighteners, blow-dryers)

Harsh, chemical-laden shampoos (opt for sulfate-free, pH-balanced)

Tight hairstyles (ponytails, braids) that strain the scalp

Over-washing (strip the scalp of its natural oils)

When to Seek Professional Help

DIY treatments are excellent for prevention and mild hair thinning. But you should consult Dr. Bansal Hair Rebirth Centre if:

Hair loss is sudden or patchy (could be alopecia areata)

You're seeing rapid thinning despite trying home remedies

You notice underlying symptoms (itching, burning, inflammation)
