To strengthen your hair, there are many more or less known solutions. But a certain vegetable may well surprise us.
Brewer yeast, apple cider vinegar, food supplements … For a dream mane, do you go back to nothing? We understand you! To the rhythm of seasonal changes, the passing of time but also of certain vagaries of life, our hair can fall and refine. There are some solutions to remedy this, and strengthen the hair fiber. Among them, a vegetable present in all kitchens, to which we lend many virtues: stimulate hair growth, brake their fall, but also clean up the scalp. The good news? It is present in more and more shampoos.
Rich in suffering and antioxidants, an essential element for healthy hair growth, this vegetable boosts blood circulation towards hair follicles for better growth. “”It is said that the onion potentially improves the appearance of the hair while keeping the scalp and healthy and protected from oxidative stress “explains Brendan Camp, a dermatologist, with Real Simple media. Better still, it would have antibacterial and antifungal properties, thus helping to fight against dandruff and itching.
If we already find onion in certain shampoos, it is also possible to take the vegetable directly and make rinse water to have all the benefits. Just cut it into slices and let them soak in a bowl of water. Obviously, a question arises: will your hair feel the onion after that? Well, no. The smell dissipates quickly after a second rinse with clear water.
Proof of the magnitude of the phenomenon, on social networks more and more users praise the merits of onion shampoos, showing the effects on their hair. However, it is important to emphasize that scientific evidence regarding the benefits of onion on the hair are not yet legion. Only a study carried out in 2002 demonstrated the efficiency of the vegetable on patients with alopecia: twice a day, the latter applied onion water to the scalp. 87% of the participants thus noted a regrowth of the hair. On the other hand, the food having no effect on the hormones, it does not constitute a miracle remedy against baldness.
