I am a soap and toiletries maker and belong to a natural toiletries list, 1natural at . The owners of the list are extremely helpful and friendly and sell essential oils, as well as other toiletry supplies. Bill, is a chemist and Trina is works with aromatherapy and is a soap and toiletries maker. If you are interested in aromatherapy ways to treat hair loss or any other condition, I highly recommend signing up for this list and asking for help. There are many extremely knowledgeable people on the list.

I know that hair loss is particularly troubling to many of our

group. I just heard from , who Kathy had mentioned, and I had

hoped that she could offer us some words of advice about her

experience with hair loss, but even after all these years, she

stated that she is still experiencing problems in that area. It

seems to be a huge mystery as to why the hair is falling out, and

what will make it come back.

I wanted to share this with those of you who are looking, to offer

some kind of possible solution. I know that when I was using

essential oils on my hair, over a period of months, my husband

noticed!

For_Hair_Lo/a_natural_solution_for_hair_lo.html

A full head of beautiful hair and an attractive appearance are

highly desirable things. For some people, losing their hair can

cause them a great deal of stress and anxiety. Among the causes of

hair loss are heredity, hormones, aging, poor circulation, a poor

diet, and illness. While drugs can be used to regrow a bit of hair,

they also have side effects. Many health-minded people have spent

some time searching for a natural treatment solution that could

regrow hair. Their search just may be over.

Alopecia is a general word that means loss of the hair on the head

or baldness. Loss of all of the scalp hair is known as alopecia

totalis. Loss of all body hair is termed alopecia universalis.

Alopecia areata occurs when the hair falls out in patches.

Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils to achieve therapeutic

health benefits. It dates back thousands of years to the time of

Cleopatra. Essential oils are highly concentrated extracts which are

derived from the flowers, leaves, bark and roots of various plants.

They contain the plant's active " lifelike " properties and are said

to be the " blood " of the plant. Among these essential oils are

cedarwood, lavender, rosemary and thyme, all of which have been used

to treat alopecia for over a hundred years. However, no scientific

study has been conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of these

substances until now.

A revolutionary aromatherapy study was recently published in the

Archives of Dermatology (1). Isabelle C. Hay and co-researchers

from the Aberdeen Royal Infirmary in Scotland studied 86 people with

diagnosed alopecia areata. The trial lasted seven months and while

the trial took place, the participants stopped using topical (skin)

and oral alopecia medications. Instead, half of the people used a

blend of cedarwood (2 drops), lavender (3 drops), rosemary (3 drops)

and thyme (2 drops), in a carrier oil mix of jojoba oil (1/2

teaspoon) and grapeseed oil (4 teaspoons). The placebo group used

just the carrier oils. Patients were taught to massage the oil into

the bare areas of their scalp for two minutes each evening and then

wrap a warm towel around their head to enhance absorption.

At the beginning of the study, and again after three and seven

months, professional photographs were taken of each patient's scalp.

Changes as seen in the photographs served as the primary outcome

measure. Mapping and measuring of the bald patches was also done to

determine results.

An impressive 44 percent of the group using the essential oils

significantly improved. The average area of hair regrowth with the

essential oils was 104 square centimeters, compared with nearly zero

for those using the placebo. According to one intriguing photograph

provided by the researchers, considerable hair regrowth occurred

with one male patient who had both alopecia areata and severe male

pattern hair loss.

These results show aromatherapy to be a safe and effective treatment

for alopecia areata. The researchers were proud to have

successfully applied an evidence-based method to an alternative

therapy. Evidently, one or more of the essential oils is able to

promote hair regrowth. And unlike standard medical therapies, the

essential oils have a very low risk of side effects and are not

nearly as costly.

Highly Recommended Products:

Click on each of the links listed below to get the essential oils

at GetVitamins.com. GetVitamins.com is one of the few nutritional

web sites that has a complete selection of all essential oil

products. These links go directly to each of the oils described in

the study above. Its much cheaper to shop on the Internet! Save up

Grapeseed Oil (4 teaspoons) Jojoba Oil (1/2

teaspoon)

Cedarwood Essential Oil (2 drops) Lavender Essential Oil (3

drops)

Rosemary Essential Oil (3 drops) Thyme Essential Oil (2

drops)

Helpful Tips: After getting the essential oils, go to your local

drugstore and get a small plastic mixing bottle with a pointed tip

opening (that holds about 4 ounces), for applying the oils to your

scalp. Get a small liquid dropper with teaspoon measuring lines for

drawing in liquids. This is for measuring the carrier oils into the

mixing bottle. Plastic gloves are helpful as undiluted essential

oils can be very strong. The essential oil bottles come with a guide

attached to the inside of the bottle mouth which allows for easy

control of how many drops come out.

Mix all the ingredients together and massage into your scalp each

evening wearing plastic gloves. You can make up enough for 2 or 3

applications at once to save time. Use a plastic shower cap if

you'd like to keep the oils working overnight, otherwise leave them

on for at least an hour and then wash out in the shower. Keep in

mind: the study described above lasted for 7 months, so give this

natural remedy a good try, and enjoy the benefits of these powerful

oils!

Thank you for the info! Do you know how long has had her implants out? Does she have any hair left? Just wondering what my future holds for me.

Kenda,

I found it very intesting that, while I was chemically

sensitive, I could go into a natural toiletries shop

and not experience a reaction but I did react just

passing the cosmetics counter in a department store.

At the time, I didn't know what was going on . . .

I've since learned that many of the chemicals used in

cosmetics would be banned as drugs . . . Yet the skin

can absorb the chemicals through the skin - just as it

does with drugs delivered in patches!

Scarey!

Hugs,

Rogene

Hi Rogene,

I have the same problem now, I can’t tolerate the smells of chemically processed soaps and toiletries while making my own doesn’t bother me a bit. The FDA doesn’t regulate what goes into soap because it isn’t a leave on product, it’s pretty scary! Soap makers aren’t even required to list their ingredients.

Hi Marie,

's story is in our files section, I believe. You can read

more about her hair issues there. I am pretty sure she has had her

implants out for at least a couple of years, if not 3 or 4.

She has improved alot, but she also stated that she is not out of

the woods yet. She still has hair, but says the loss is sporadic.

She is also on disability now, but hoping to work again. It's been

a tough road for her, but she has come a long, long way and I am so

happy for her!

Also, I just saw this chart at the end of this website

http://www.breastimplantinfo.org/what_know/having_problems.html

that says excessive hair loss is indicative of an autoimmune

response--very general and non-specific, so all that means to me is

that a program of detoxification is necessary to prompt the body

into better health. I have read lots of info on people who have had

autoimmune illness that improve greatly with detoxing. And of

course, that has been our experience as well.

You might want to look into a liver flush. There was a testimony

from someone on curezone.com who had lupus, but after a series of

liver flushes, he said his lupus was cured. That's pretty

encouraging!

There is an online doctor who sells supplements very reasonably. It is myhealthfirst.com. One of the detoxing products that I have used consistently for a couple of years is called AdvaClear. I could immediately tell a difference in how I felt if I attempted to stop taking it. You might want to give it a try and see if it helps you. There is no charge for shipping if you spend $100.
