Ingredients like henna, indigo, myrtle, and cedar, which are absorbed through the skin, strengthen hair. Certain herbal hair dyes containing ingredients such as indigo, henna, and walnut shells can strengthen the brain, unlike chemical hair dyes.
According to the family magazine service of Saed News, citing Hamshahri Online, Dr. Elham Parsa, a specialist in traditional medicine and a faculty member at Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, says: "Hair characteristics vary based on a person's temperament. Those with a warm temperament experience rapid hair growth during infancy and hair loss in old age. In youth and middle age, they have thick, dark hair. In contrast, individuals with straight, light hair tend to have a cooler temperament. Curly, thick, and voluminous hair indicates a dry temperament, and these individuals are prone to early hair loss. People with thin, slow-growing hair and less hair loss have a moist temperament. It's essential to note that hair treatments like keratin, frequent blow-drying, and coloring alter the hair, making it unreliable for determining temperament."
Breakfast: quince jam, apple jam, citron jam, and carrot jam.
Main meals: lentil pilaf, quince-aloo stew, tascabob, lamb kebabs, and eggs.
Snacks: almonds, pistachios, hazelnuts, figs, apple juice, carrot juice, and rice bran.
Dr. Parsa continues: "Healthy nutrition is vital for thick, beautiful hair. Addressing malnutrition, anemia, and general weakness, which cause hair loss, will result in stronger, thicker hair. Additionally, insufficient sleep and poor sleep quality weaken the brain and lead to hair loss. Maintaining mental well-being, reducing stress, regular physical activity, and good psychological health contribute to beautiful hair and prevent hair loss."
Some herbalists claim that their herbal-based hair dyes can strengthen hair. Dr. Parsa explains: Ingredients like henna, indigo, myrtle, and cedar, which are absorbed through the skin, strengthen hair. Certain herbal hair dyes containing ingredients such as indigo, henna, and walnut shells can strengthen the brain, unlike chemical hair dyes. However, it's recommended to avoid pre-made herbal dye mixtures from herbalists with unknown ingredients. Instead, purchase and combine individual components to ensure you know what you're using.
When some chemical hair dyes are labeled as herbal-based, it's unclear how much of them is actually herbal. When herbs or oils are combined with chemical ingredients, they may not have the same beneficial effects as when used alone or with other herbal substances.
