What Causes Hair Fall?
Before starting the review, let us take a look at the causes of hair fall. According to experts, losing more or less 100 hair strands a day is quite normal. But if the amount increases unusually, you should be concerned about it. There are multiple underlying factors that contribute to hair fall. These include hormonal changes, thyroid disorders, high levels of stress, nutritional deficiencies, specific medications (antidepressants, anticoagulants, anticonvulsants, beta-blockers, oral contraceptives), certain medical conditions (autoimmune diseases, diabetes, liver disease, inflammatory bowel disease, renal failure), etc. (1) It is important to identify the exact cause of hair fall before trying treatments or home remedies for it.

How Does Oiling Reduce Hair Fall?
Natural oils like coconut oil, sunflower oil, olive oil, almond oil, castor oil, etc. are rich in fatty acids (2), which penetrate deep into the hair shafts and reduce the loss of protein from them. Oils also enhance the health of hair follicles, thereby making hair strands stronger and curbing hair fall.
Now, as you have already got an idea about how oiling helps hair fall, let us dig deeper into how Kesh King Ayurvedic Medicinal Oil can help you with the same.
