Adults have approximately 100,000 hairs on their heads. The hair of women grows slightly faster than that of men. Most scalp hair loss is normal. On average, you lose and replace about 50 to 150 hairs per day. Men tend to lose hair around the front of the face and the crown of the scalp. Hair loss in women tends to appear as overall thinning. When hair growth fails to keep up with hair loss, the result is thinning hair that can eventually lead to baldness. Fortunately, it's possible to stop hair loss and even encourage hair re-growth depending upon the underlying issue that is causing the hair loss. Here are ways to boost fullness from the inside out.

Causes:

• Nutritional deficiencies or excess of carbohydrates and animal fats can cause falling hair.
• Excessive brushing or toweling can prematurely dislodge hairs or break them off in the follicles.
• Other causes are genetics, medical conditions, medications, grooming products and stress.

Tips on How to Encourage Hair Regrowth:

• Getting enough rest, sleep and reducing stress can help restore your hair health.
• Iron deficiency may cause hair fall. Without enough iron the body can't make ribonucleotide reductase, an enzyme needed for new cell production. To replenish stores, eat at least three daily servings of iron-rich foods like lean beef, green leafy veggies, liver, oats and nuts.
• Take 2,400 mcg of Biotin supplement. Biotin can thicken hair shafts and encourage new growth. Foods sources of biotin are: brown rice, bananas, egg and milk.
• Niacin is another important vitamin that can stimulate blood flow and activate cell receptors that influence hair growth.
• Protein. Increasing protein intake by 14 grams a day increases the diameter of each hair by 14 percent.
• Use gentle shampoo because, the residue from harsh shampoo can hamper re-growth by clogging the tiny openings.

• Gently massaging the scalp helps improve circulation, sending blood to hair roots, which help maintain root strength to protect against loss.
• Coconut oil or Olive oil rubbed into the scalp and allowed to remain for at least 30 minutes before gently rinsing off can also help decrease hair loss.
• Use medicinal based product like minoxidil. Minoxidil helps the body to regulate blood pressure which when elevated can disrupt proper blood flow to areas such as the scalp where hair loss can result. It also nourishes the hair follicles allowing them to increase in size, numbers, and strength. This encourages hair growth while also working to prevent hair loss once growth has occurred.
• Consuming Essential Fatty Acids canplay an important role in cell and metabolic functioning. Omega-3s is especially beneficial for strengthening existing hair, and keeping the scalp healthy.
• Vitamin E increases oxygen uptake, which improves blood circulation to the scalp and improves hair growth.
• Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids improves circulation to the scalp and keep hair follicle in great shape.
• Silica helps hair growth and strengthens hair.
• Ginkgo Biloba improves circulation to the scalp.
