Hair is a precious part of our body which makes you more beautiful, and gets the world attracted towards you. The cycle of hair growth undergoes four stages – Anagen stage (Hair grows thick in this stage), Catagen stage (Hair root starts degenerating in this stage), Telogen stage (hair growth stops completely in this stage) and Early Anagen (hair starts to fall out and new cells grow in this stage).
Diet, hormonal changes, genetic problems, medications, stress and lack of sleep are some of the cause which prevents the hair from growing naturally.
In general, everyone wants thicker, longer hair, but the formulated products in stores can cost a fortune. Thankfully, you don’t need those stuffs, because there are so many hair growing products already available in your kitchen! All you need to do is identify these products, get to know the combinations and the exact quantity of these items to use. Hey, you don’t need to worry! We’re here to help.
