Looking for a natural, powerful solution to boost hair growth and prevent hair loss? This remedy using garlic, olive oil, and honey is a time-tested method that helps strengthen hair follicles, improve scalp health, and encourage rapid hair growth. Each of these ingredients offers unique benefits for your hair, and when combined, they create a potent formula to make your hair grow like crazy and stop it from falling out.
Why This Remedy Works
- Garlic: Garlic is rich in sulfur and selenium, two compounds that are crucial for hair growth. Sulfur boosts the production of keratin, a protein that strengthens hair, while selenium helps activate enzymes that promote hair growth. Garlic’s antibacterial properties also help to cleanse the scalp, preventing infections that can contribute to hair loss.
- Olive Oil: Olive oil is full of healthy fats, vitamins, and antioxidants, which nourish the scalp and hair follicles. It deeply moisturizes the hair, preventing dryness and breakage, and helps improve blood circulation to the scalp, which supports hair growth.
- Honey: Honey acts as a natural humectant, drawing moisture into the hair and scalp. It helps soothe the scalp, promotes shine, and supports hair growth by keeping hair hydrated and nourished.
Ingredients
- 5-6 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
- 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon of honey
Instructions
1. Prepare the Garlic
Peel and mince 5-6 garlic cloves. Garlic is the key ingredient in this remedy, as its sulfur content stimulates hair growth and improves scalp health.
2. Heat the Olive Oil
In a small pan, warm the 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil over low heat. Be careful not to overheat the oil—just warm it enough to help release the properties of the garlic.
3. Infuse the Garlic
Add the minced garlic to the warm olive oil and let it simmer on low heat for about 5-10 minutes. This will allow the garlic’s nutrients to infuse into the olive oil. Once done, remove the pan from the heat and let it cool.
4. Strain the Mixture
Strain the oil to remove the garlic pieces, leaving behind a garlic-infused olive oil that is rich in hair-strengthening nutrients.
5. Add Honey
Once the garlic-infused oil has cooled, mix in 1 tablespoon of honey. Stir the mixture until well combined.
How to Apply the Remedy
- Massage into Scalp
Start by parting your hair and massaging the mixture directly into your scalp. Use your fingertips to gently massage in circular motions. This will help stimulate blood flow and ensure that the nutrients are absorbed into the hair follicles. - Apply to Hair
Once the scalp is covered, apply the remaining mixture to the lengths of your hair, focusing on the ends to prevent split ends and breakage. - Leave it On
For best results, leave the mixture on for at least 30 minutes. You can also wrap your hair in a warm towel or shower cap to allow the ingredients to penetrate more deeply. - Rinse and Wash
After 30 minutes, wash your hair thoroughly with a mild shampoo to remove the garlic smell. You may need to shampoo twice to ensure the oil is fully washed out.
How Often to Use
- For hair growth and to reduce hair fall, use this remedy 2-3 times a week. Consistent use will help strengthen your hair follicles, reduce hair thinning, and encourage faster growth.
