INGREDIENTS
Take two tablespoons fenugreek seeds (soaked overnight), two tablespoons aloe vera gel (freshly extracted), one tablespoon coconut oil (organic, cold-pressed), water (as needed for grinding)
SOAK FENUGREEK SEEDS
Soak two tablespoons of fenugreek seeds in water overnight. This softens the seeds, making them easier to grind and releasing their beneficial nutrients.
GRIND INTO A PASTE
Blend the soaked seeds with half cup of water until you get a smooth paste. The paste should be thick enough to apply easily on your scalp.
ADD ALOE VERA GEL
Mix two tablespoons of fresh aloe vera gel into the fenugreek paste. Aloe vera helps soothe the scalp and enhances the paste’s conditioning properties.
MIX IN COCONUT OIL
Add one tablespoon of coconut oil to the mixture. Coconut oil nourishes the scalp, preventing dryness and breakage, while fenugreek stimulates hair follicles.
APPLY TO SCALP AND HAIR
Apply the paste evenly on your scalp and through your hair strands. Massage gently to ensure that the nutrients penetrate into the hair roots and shafts.
LEAVE FOR 30 MINUTES
Leave the paste for 30 minutes. This allows the fenugreek to work its magic on your scalp and hair follicles, promoting hair growth and reducing hair fall.
RINSE
Rinse off the paste with lukewarm water. Follow up with a mild shampoo to remove any residue, leaving your hair soft, shiny, and nourished.
INFORMATION CREDIT
A study by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) highlights the effectiveness of fenugreek in promoting hair health due to its rich content of proteins and nicotinic acid, which are known to strengthen hair follicles and promote growth.
CONCLUSION
Fenugreek is a natural remedy for hair growth that’s easy to prepare and highly effective. Consult a trichologist for personalised advice.
