Some health problems, though they indirectly affect the body, hold great importance. One health problem is hair loss. Hair fall of course doesn't affect the body system but it affects your feelings, your look, and personality. I'm sure this rings alarm bells for many of you who are experiencing hair fall and those of you who are getting bald.

The best way to stop hair fall is by knowing the cause of it. There are some reasons like stress, hormonal imbalance in the body, poor diet, and hereditary reasons too. Anyway, let' see some simple methods to prevent hair loss.

Lead proper lifestyle:The first preventing hair loss method is to lead a healthy life style. I mean you must not smoke, drink and have too much stress. Smoking and drinking are known to damage the hair follicle by stopping the oxygen from reaching the scalp.

Stress also is a common factor these days for causing hair loss. Try to exercise regularly and keep your mind cool with under stress. Think about your hair fall, I think that's the best motivational factor.

Avoid combing your hair when it is wet:The second preventing hair loss method is not to comb the hair when it is wet. The reason is simple, the roots get weakened during that time and combing may induce more hair fall. You can also use a soft toothed comb which is also wide.

Proper diet:The third method would be to have proper diet. Lack of vitamins is usually the main cause for hair fall. For that you can eat fruits, vegetables, meat, egg, milk and milk products which provide you the necessary nutrients that help stop hair loss.

Avoid artificial oils:You must have seen advertisements with claims that their oils or surgeries can cure your baldness or hair fall completely. Well, I have got news for you. They are harmful and do more danger than good for your hair. These oils may work for a few people, but usually the oils don't work for all and you can end up getting bald using them.

The surgeries are expensive and after the surgery you need lot of maintenance to keep your hair from falling. It sounds easy but trust me, you don't want to go through this.

Go the natural way:Instead you can try herbs that can help in preventing hair loss like shikakai and amalaki (Indian gooseberry). They strengthen the hair roots making them strong and increase blood circulation. You can also use medicated gels or oil to prevent loss of hair.

As you can see, preventing hair loss is not so difficult. You just have to be gentle with your hair and lead a stress free lifestyle to reduce hair fall.
