How to make hair thicker | 7 Effective natural methods

Thick and strong hair

Hair thickness majorly depends upon nutrition they are getting. If they are getting good nutrition then hair will definitely become thick, dense and strong. We can provide them nutrition both internally as well as externally. I will explain both ways in detail.

But before discussing those methods let us know about how to know thickness of our hair. For women, just make a pony tail and measure its width. If thickness is less than 2 inches then hair are thin. Between 2 to 3 inches hair are neither thick nor thin. More than 3 inches then hair are thick, strong and dense. Another method for both men and women to check the thickness and density of hair is dry hair method. If the scalp is easily visible when hair are dry then you seriously need to take proper care of them before the condition get worse.Hair start getting thin, when they do’t get essential nutrients they need. These methods are also useful to keep hair healthy and strong forever. So, let’s start discussing, how to make hair thicker and stronger.

Exercise can boost hair growth

As I told you, hair needs nutrients and oxygen to remain in good state. Hair follicles absorb these two from blood. If this blood supply get interrupted due to some reason then our hair start loosing its healthy state. So, to make hair thick and strong we only need to improve blood supply to hair follicles. We can do this by doing exercise. Yoga poses like Head Stand, Utthanasana (Standing Forward Bend), Adho Mukho Savasana (Downward Dog Pose), Sarvangasana (Shoulder Stand), Setubandhasana (Bridge Pose) increases blood flow towards head. Meditation and breathing exercise will further improve hair thickness.

Flex Seeds and Chia seeds are hair best friend

These seeds are extremely beneficial for hair. They contain all essential nutrients hair needs for growth. Flex and Chia seeds contain certain minerals which control the DHT hormone in body. When our body produce this hormone excessively they start interrupting blood supply to hair follicles resulting in thin and weak hair. This can also leads to hair fall. But regular consumption of these highly nutritional seeds will control the DHT level, boost blood supply and make hair thicker and stronger again. These are also useful in baldness.
