Treatment on hair loss

A critical illness, heredity, exposure to the elements are the various reasons for the sudden loss of hair. Since your sister is just recovering from some critical illness, perhaps you should consult her doctor and then begin any kind of treatment.

For instance, massaging the scalp is accepted as one of the most effective ways to encourage the growth of new hair. Applying an egg on the hair is another old remedy that is very effective. Simply beat a raw egg, add a few drops of lemon juice and apply it on your sister's hair.

Ensure that the shampoos and conditioners that she uses are not strong products whose harsh chemicals will strip her hair of any goodness. After she shampoos her hair with a mild shampoo, use lemon juice or else vinegar to give her the last rinse.    

If your sister has been critically ill, then it goes without saying that her diet has been shot to pieces. What you can do is to ensure that she eats food that will help her hair grow well again. Give her plenty of fresh fruits and raw vegetables. Encourage her to snack on fruit juices and snacks rather than anything unhealthy.
