If you're troubled by hair loss in the winter, these home remedies will help and boost hair growth.

Many people are often troubled by hair loss during the winter season. They say that as soon as winter arrives, their hair starts falling out rapidly. The biggest reason for this is that the cold, dry air strips the scalp of its moisture. This dries out the scalp, increases dandruff, weakens the hair roots, and accelerates hair fall.  On top of this, frequent washing with hot water, over-styling, and nutritional deficiencies further exacerbate hair loss. Therefore, we should take extra care of our hair in winter. Here are some remedies that can help you get rid of these problems to a great extent, and the ingredients for these remedies are easily available at home, so you won't have to put in much effort.

Boost Hair Growth with Green Tea
People usually consume green tea for weight loss, but you might not know that the used green tea bags you throw away are very beneficial for hair growth. If you mix the remaining tea leaves from the bag with warm water and apply it to your scalp, leaving it on for some time, and then wash your hair thoroughly, you'll see results. Green tea is rich in antioxidants, which promote hair growth and prevent hair loss.

Strengthen Hair Roots with Onion Juice
If you want to stop hair fall, onion juice can help you a lot. Onion juice contains sulfur, which increases collagen production and helps in new hair growth. This strengthens your hair roots. Apply onion juice to your scalp for 20-25 minutes and then wash it off. Do this 1-2 times a week.

Iron and Protein-Rich Foods are Essential for Hair
To promote hair growth and prevent breakage, you should consume food products rich in iron and protein to strengthen your hair during the winter. Including iron-rich foods like spinach, fenugreek, and broccoli, protein sources like lentils, soy, and paneer (Indian cottage cheese), omega-3 foods like almonds and walnuts, blood-boosting vegetables like carrots and beetroot, and sesame seeds and jaggery in your daily diet strengthens hair roots and reduces hair fall.

Avoid washing your hair with hot water.
In winter, we often bathe with hot water, but if your hair is weak and breaking easily, you should avoid pouring hot water on your head. Hot water strips the hair of its moisture, making it dry and lifeless, which can lead to a dry scalp and increase the risk of bacterial infections like dandruff.

Coconut milk accelerates hair growth.
Coconut milk is very effective for hair growth. It contains sufficient amounts of iron and potassium, which strengthen the hair. Apply it well to your scalp, and if possible, squeeze a little lemon juice into the coconut milk, which will help in hair growth and strengthening.
