If you are experiencing any type of hair loss, it can be very frustrating. No one likes to lose their hair. But thanks to modern technology there are several hair replacement strategies that might work for you. Hair restoration is not usually a quick process. There is always going to be a waiting period whether it is for healing from hair transplant surgery or for follicle stimulation from a shampoo. You just need to be patient and let the treatment do its job. It is a good idea to do your own research before heading out to see your hair loss specialist or going to a hair clinic. Here are a few options that might be available to you if you are experiencing hair loss.

Specially Formulated Shampoo
Once a hair follicle dies, that is it; there is no bringing it back to life. However, there could be follicles on your scalp that are weak. Buying a hair shampoo and conditioner that are specifically manufactured to stimulate hair growth will bring strength to those weak follicles so that they begin producing healthier, thicker hair again. You can not expect to have thick and luscious hair if your natural hair has always been more on the fine or thin side but you can expect to bring your hair back to the way it was before you began losing it. Shampoos work best on postpartum hair loss and other temporary problems.

Hair Replacement Surgery
Hair transplants and grafting is a hair replacement surgery that is usually done in a dermatologist office. In short, what the surgeon does is remove a part of the scalp that bears hair just fine, cuts it in to small pieces and then attaches it to the balding areas. Eventually, the hair bearing area will grow the hair back and the areas that were grafted will being to produce a thicker and more natural look. This is an outpatient surgery with recovery time of about 10 days. This is done when there is permanent hair loss present.

Diet Speculation
Often times one of the only reasons that someone is losing hair is because their hair is not getting the necessary nutrients. Unfortunately, our hair is of little importance to our bodies. They feed it last. If you are not getting enough nutrients into your body, it is going to disperse through your organs and leave your hair out. Your hair only gets what is left after everything else has been fed. If this is the case then you will need to figure out what you are lacking through blood work at your doctors office and then introduce it in to your diet. This may be in the form of food or it could also be supplements, where necessary.

Natural Home Remedies
There are various natural remedies that have not been medically proven but have good reviews from people who have tried them. Concoctions including onion juice, hot peppers, sage, rosemary, aloe vera and others have been shown to increase hair density, stimulate hair growth and have other positive affects on the hair. If you feel like you might be experiencing hair loss but it is not enough of a concern to talk with your doctor yet, try some of these natural remedies. They may do the trick without much fuss at all. The nice thing about natural options is that they are not going to hurt you. There are no chemicals or anything like that involved so the worst thing that will happen is that it does not work to stimulate growth but it will not make it worse.

Always talk through all of your options with your doctor before making any decisions. There are different types of hair loss and different reasons for them to. It can be an emotionally overwhelming time if you are going through extreme hair loss. This is why it is so important to lean heavily on your doctor when you are thinking about hair replacement. You do not want to make a decision out of emotion and then end up regretting it. Think through each option before you decide what you are going to do. Having a well thought out plan is crucial when dealing with something like this in your life.
