: I have noticed that many people shed hair in the fall. If you had a

: time to shed to make room for the new hair. You should notice in
: about two months lots of little fine hairs popping up especially
: around the hair line. This is perfectly normal. The hairs that
: have shed went dormant about two or three months ago and are now
: shedding as the new hair has began to push on it.

: Also hormonal shifts due to perimenopause will cause more hairs to
: shed than normal and this happens in cycles. I am fifty and have

come

: oils recipe that was posted here some time ago. I'll post it again
: to save time in searching
:
: 4oz (120ml) Jojoba oil or Emu oil
:
: 16 drops (1/8 teaspoon) of the following EO:
:
: Thyme
: Atlas Ceddarwood
: Rosemary
: Lavender
:
: I have also added 8 drops of Basil to this, but it was not part of
: the original recipe.
:
: Ayurverdic oils are also good for thinning hair. These include:
:
: Amla
: Bhringara
: Brahmi
:
: Of course there are many things can effect hair loss and thinning.
: These can include stress, hair dye, not enough nutrients in your
: diet and hormonal shifts.
:
: Hope this is helpful to you.

Thank you, Meg - I had been wondering about the ingredients in that
recipe. I suppose the ayurvedic ones could probably be had from an
Indian pharmacy or grocery - ?
