Postpartum Hair Loss: Simple Natural Ways to Restore Your Lush Locks

Many new mothers experience postpartum hair loss. During pregnancy, high levels of oestrogen keep your hair in a growth phase, making it look thick and shiny. After you give birth, these levels drop quickly. This causes all that extra hair to shed at once. It is a natural process called Telogen Effluvium.

But there’s nothing to be scared about. This is a temporary phase. However, you can significantly reduce its effect if you follow these simple tips.

Nourish from the Inside Out

Your body has been through a lot, and it needs the right fuel to fight post-pregnancy hair thinning and regrow your hair. Focus on a diet rich in iron, biotin, and Vitamin C. Foods like spinach, eggs, and berries provide the building blocks your hair follicles need.

Gentle Scalp Care

While you’re experiencing post-pregnancy hair thinning, it is important to be very gentle. Avoid tight ponytails that pull on your roots. Try to limit heat styling and use a wide-tooth comb to prevent breakage. A simple daily scalp massage can also help by increasing blood flow to your hair roots.

Fortification Treatment

Using natural hair growth treatments like a hair mask can speed up your recovery. We recommend the Hair Yoga® Growth treatment Oil. This powerful, natural oil uses Ayurvedic ingredients like Brahmi and Hibiscus to protect your hair’s natural keratin. In fact, clinical tests show that 97% of users experience less hair loss in just one week. Applying this oil twice a week is a simple, chemical-free way to regain your hair density.
