Taking care of your tresses during this stressful time can get tricky, especially because there is a lot to consider when it comes to hair fall.

And for those of you who have tried everything and are crediting your hair loss to the current stressful situation, read ahead! 

Here are the best products for hair growth and thickness that will work for every hair type! 

1. Stimulate your Hair Follicles with Essential Oils

Many studies and experts have suggested that the use of essential oils leads to reduced hair loss. And we trust the experts! A 1998 study showed that 43 percent of 86 people showed remarkable improvement in their scalp health! Good news, folks! Lavender oil, lemongrass and peppermint are some essential oils that have the potential of reducing hair loss due to stress and anxiety. You can choose to mix a couple of drops of these oils with carrier oils such as Coconut, Jojoba or Grapeseed. Apply it to your scalp and gently massage it to stimulate blood circulation and promote hair growth. Keep it for 10 minutes and rinse it out with a relaxing shower. Repeat this a couple of times and you will see a significant improvement in your hair thickness and volume! Hooray for essential oils! We recommend using the Good Vibes lemongrass essential oil! 

2. Use a potent hair mask to sink in that deep nourishment 

Every influencer on your Instagram feed probably swears by a hair mask. And they’re not wrong! Hair masks are deeply nourishing, can seep below your scalp and help you improve the lustre, strength and volume of your hair! Lucky for us they are also our answers to the terrifying question “how to regain hair loss from stress”. Perfect for dry, frizzy and hair loss caused by stress and anxiety. Choose a hair mask with hydrating, strengthening and nourishing properties to feed your scalp the nutrients it needs. We recommend the Tresemme Keratin Mask!

Or, the Alps Goodness Hibiscus and methi powder hair mask!

3. Use products with Onion Juice 

Many hair growth enthusiasts swear by the powers of the mighty Onion. It might have a bad rep in the kitchen but when it comes to hair care, it really rocks. When used on your head and scalp, the juice produces extra sulfur that promotes thick and strong hair. This magical element promotes hair growth. The sulfur also helps stimulate collagen production. A win-win! Collagen also further helps the production of healthy skin cells and hair growth. Time to stock up on those onions!

We recommend using the Good Vibes Onion Hair Fall Control Oil!

And, WOW Onion Black Seed Oil Shampoo. 

These products will work wonders on your hair! 

4. Use the Miracle Worker Biotin

Biotin or otherwise known as Vitamin H or B7 promotes fatty acid synthesis in the body (yes, we are skincare nerds!). This means that it is one of the many essential processes in your body. Deficiency of which might lead to hair loss! One way to use it is externally through Biotin infused products such as Dermdoc Repair and Restore Shampoo with Biotin and St. Botanica Biotin and Collagen Hair Mask for Fuller and Thicker Hair will work well. You could also speak to your doctor about consuming it orally in extreme cases. Make sure to have a conversation with a professional before you choose to do so!

5. Take Supplements or Vitamins

While we talk about the best products for hair growth and thickness, Supplements are definitely a go-to. 

We recommend you try the Power Gummies Hair Vitamins With Biotin Gummies 

Whether it’s your skincare or haircare journey, your nourishment is incomplete without the nutrient-rich Multivitamins! 

We would recommend the Purna Complete Beauty Multivitamin Gummies For Adults and Kids

Although make sure to consult a doctor if you are breastfeeding, pregnant or have any food allergies.

Your hair loss itself might be causing you more problems than general stress itself. It’s always a good idea to adopt healthy habits like practising deep breathing, exercising regularly and maintaining a balanced diet. Many of us fall into this black hole but stressing about something that might not be in our control doesn’t help your case either. Another useful tip is to maintain a hair care routine and a journal where you document your journey. This will not only help you understand what suits your hair best but give you surprising insights into your own habits. 

We hope this helps you in how to regain hair loss from stress. The bottom line is: adopt healthy habits, use our best shampoos for hair care, and make way for a happier, healthier you!
