To take advantage of all these vitamins and minerals and prevent hair loss, you can make the following home remedy.

• 5 ml of glycerin
• 1 ml of vegetable oil
• Rosemary essential oil

1. Mix with a wooden or plastic spoon (do not use metal) Castiglia soap, aloe gel, glycerin, and the vegetable oil and, at will, a few drops of rosemary essential oil, very useful for curing dry and weakened hair.
2. Pour everything into a vial using a funnel and proceed with normal washing while massaging gently but deeply.

Compress based on Aloe Vera and lemon for alopecia and hair loss

Ingredients:

• Aloe Vera 
• Lemon

Steps:

1. Pour 3 tablespoons of aloe vera and two tablespoons of lemon juice into a bowl.
2. Mix and get a homogeneous compound.
3. Massage for a long time and leave for 40 minutes.
4. Then rinse normally and repeat this operation a couple of times a week.

This treatment is one of the most effective to regulate changes in the pH of the scalp.

Both ingredients are antibacterial and antifungal, promoting strong and healthy growth.

It is worth noting that the anti-inflammatory agents in aloe contribute to the strengthening of the immune system. Depending on the type of baldness, these can attenuate hair loss by calming inflammation, and deep cleaning the pores without the need for chemical agents, making this process a little less invasive than other chemical treatments.

Aloe, however, is not a miracle cure that makes hair grow back, especially in cases of alopecia where the hair follicles are progressively destroyed, for example by the effect of the hormone DHT.
