"Hi, my name is Lauren and today I'm going to discuss reversing thinning hair. There are a few things that you can do to reverse thinning hair, some being topical and some being more internal. Topically you can apply cider vinegar and sage tea and use it as a rinse. Apply it to your scalp and then just rinse it out. What it will do is stimulate the circulation in your scalp and it will promote hair growth so it will actually enable you to grow more hair and at a faster rate. You can also use treatment such as Rogaine which is a mousse treatment that you put on which will also do the same and help your hair grow and help you maintain the hair that you have. Nioxin shampooing system is also a great topical way. It will stimulate the scalp and it create more blood circulation through your scalp which will nourish your papilla and eventually have your hair grow a little bit at a faster rate and keep it because it will be getting the nutrients and nourishment that it deserves. Another great way to do it is internally. Biotin is a mineral that you can buy and it is filled with Keratin and it actually helps strengthen the Keratin bonds that your hair has and it also helps product Keratin so that way you will be strengthening your hair which will prevent it from falling out as much. Vitamin A is really great. Its actually essential to growing your hair. It is, the vitamin itself actually promotes hair growth, its one of its main functions. Beta Carotene is actually very great to ingest because it breaks down into vitamin A which will start and help your hair grow. Vitamin C will work on your hair because it is an antioxidant which would just prevent, help you maintain a healthy scalp and hair. And vitamin E increases scalp circulation. Scalp circulation is very important, maybe also massaging your scalp will prevent you from having any further hair loss. Sometimes hair loss comes from a restriction of vitamins or any kind of a deficiencies that you may have within your own internal makeup. And you can consult a doctor and they can test you for anything that you have or maybe just let you know if it is a side effect of a medication you are on or do something in order to get your hormones and vitamin levels back to where they are supposed to be. And that is how you reverse thinning hair."
