Massage your scalp. Something as simple and easy as giving your scalp and hair a regular massage can stimulate circulation, which, in turn, promotes hair growth and hair health. Couple the massage with some herbal remedies, and you may see even better and faster results. Rinse your hair with a combination of sage tea and apple cider vinegar. Other suggestions include rinsing your hair with chamomile infusions or catmint, both of which relieve scalp itchiness, which can be a cause of hair loss as well as discomfort and irritation.

Make a paste out of licorice and milk. Grind the licorice first and then add to the milk. Apply the paste to any bald or thinning spots on your scalp. Ayurveda-herbal-remedy.com reports that this will induce hair growth.
