Kitchen Remedies and Natural Cures for Hair Loss
1. Hair thinning and baldness: Onion juice on scalp twice a week for 8 weeks, massage in and leave for a few minutes, rinse out. (In the movie Holes, the onion picker Sam says to rub his onions on the scalp and leave it on overnight to cure baldness. Onions is a folk remedy for thinning hair and baldness.  If the hair follicles have not completely died, then onions might invigorate the hair growth.)

2. Hair thinning and baldness: Cut onions into thick slices, put into a tubberware container, completely cover the onions with unsweetened gin, put the lid on the container, and let it steep for over a day, but do not strain it. Each night, brush the liquid onto the scalp, and cover your head with anything like a scarf or shower cap. 3. Our webmaster uses an LED red light therapy unit. Her unit has mostly red with a few green lights. Her hair had thinned out more than half. Her beautician would comment on how long the hair had grown. She regrew her hair.

4. One man washed his hair with horse mange shampoo. He said that it was not a sensation he would like to repeat but his hair has grown back in.

5. Trim hair (no matter how slightly) every month...should stimulate growth.
