It's normal. There is no need to worry and you are definitely not going to get bald, it’s just a temporary phase. Your hairfall is due to hormonal change. Let us discuss some effective home remedies which help in keeping your hair healthy, and promote hair growth. These out-of-the-kitchen remedies also help in minimizing hair fall and damage caused due to pregnancy: 1. Treat Deficiency: It is always better to start with the root cause of excessive hair fall. If you are low on iron, zinc or any other essential nutrients, which can be identified after consulting with your doctor, you should focus on your diet. Along with the supplements prescribed by the doctor, add natural sources of iron, zinc and vitamins to your diet. Eat food items which are rich in Vitamin C and B complex to stop hair fall. These vitamins can be found in legumes, peas, green leafy vegetables, oranges, yeast, sprouts, curd, buttermilk, soya, whole grains and nuts. Consuming these on a regular basis will help in the reduction of hair fall 2. Egg white: Make a hair pack by blending one egg white and two tablespoon olive oil well. Apply it on your hair for around 30 minutes and then rinse it off with lukewarm or cold water 3. Fenugreek seeds: This common, small and easily available herb can do wonders for your hair. Soak fenugreek seeds in water at night. Apply the strained water on the scalp next day and leave it for 1-2 hours. Fenugreek seed’s extract makes your hair healthy and also treats dandruff if any. Repeat the process once or twice a week for early results. You can also make a paste of roasted methi and then apply them on your scalp or you can add them in your oil while you are heating it to lukewarm level. It is known to cure hair fall in a very effective way since centuries 4. Avoid colors, styling tools: Avoid using heating tools for styling your hair. Frequent coloring might add more problems to hair. Let them dry naturally, do not use blow dry for drying hair too often. This weakens the roots of the hair. Never comb wet hair. If you want to do it use wide toothed comb for wet hair to avoid hair fall. Gels or sprays are absolutely not recommendable for those who suffer from hair loss problem 5. Curd: Curd is an excellent tonic which can help you in arresting the excessive hair fall and will simultaneously improve the quality of hair as well. Curd is also known as one of the best conditioner for hair. Apply the paste of curd on the scalp and leave it for 10 mins. You can even add yogurt into your diet to enhance the nutritional value of your diet 6. Massage techniques: Regular massage of your scalp will increase the blood circulation and will also promote the hair growth. You can use lukewarm oil for gently massaging your scalp for at least for 5-10 mins in a day and if in case you don’t prefer oil then just massage your hair with the tips of your fingers. Massaging will also leave you relaxed and calm. Adopt correct technique to oil massage and shampooing your hair. The same way should be followed to shampoo hair 7. Amla or Indian Gooseberry: Amla is being used from so many centuries for nourishing the hair. It is a powerful tonic which can be added directly in your diet in the form of juice or you can boil them with oil till they turn black and afterwards can massage hair with same oil 8. Choosing the right shampoo: Biotin is known to be good for hair growth. Try choosing shampoo that contains biotin 9. Medicated oils: Massaging hair using medicated oils like Mahabhringraj oil, Arnica oil or Amla oil at night regularly can be highly beneficial for hair growth. Rosemary oil is recommended for hair as it helps to supply oxygen to hair follicles which are responsible for hair growth 10. Coconut: You can use coconut in many forms to arrest hair fall. Use of coconut milk on scalp can reduce your hair fall, also you can burn the hard shell of coconut to ashes, preserve these ashes into a jar and then add these ashes every time to the oil before massaging it in your scalp. Regular use can check hair fall and can even make them darker, shinier and full of volume 11. Dry fruits and flax seeds: Add Flax seeds to your regular diet. These are rich in omega-3 and fats. Eating plenty of dry fruits and taking more water throughout the day also lead to good hair 12. Bhringraj: If possible take some fresh leaves of plant Bhringraj and let them dry in shade, afterwards grind it to powder and start taking approximately 2-3gm of powder either with honey or milk twice a day. You can also make paste from fresh leaves and apply directly at the scalp. If in case you don’t have any access to the plant then try the tablets and powders available in the market.

Hair loss is normal & it lasts for about 3 to 4 months in general. This is only a temporary phase due to the decrease in estrogen level. You can experiment with a new haircut, add texture or simply boost your hair volume with a good volumising mousse. Especially iron & calcium rich foods will have positive impact on your hair growth.

Totally normal as we did not drop much hair during pregnancy.. Don't worry too much it shld stop in a few months time.. Meanwhile, try taking supplements with higher content of biotin as it boosts hair growth as well as nail growth! Hope it helps! :)

it normal for the hair fall. trim ur hair to short length . relax ur self ya . dun be too stress or worries on hair fall issue . this also will make ur body tense . last time im worries too end up i when to see a doc and have some supplement

its normal . u can consider to trim abit of your hair to lighten down the weight . change parting every time if possible. if u r tying you hair, dont make it too tight . your hair should be able to go back to normal stage ard 8 months pp .

Trim your hair short . And avoid combing your hair . I know it sound ridiculous , but combing hair usually breaks your hair and you get more stress to see the amount of hair falling off . So just comb once in the morning .
