Herbal active ingredients against hair loss

Hair loss is a topic that concerns many people. Whether it is genetic, due to stress or hormonal changes - the causes are varied and the solutions are just as varied. In our KÖSMETIK online shop we have specialized in products against hair loss that rely on natural and herbal ingredients. The power of nature often offers effective and gentle alternatives to chemical treatments. In this blog post we present some of the most effective herbal ingredients against hair loss: saw palmetto, broccoli seeds, millet, horse chestnut, hops and sage.

Saw palmetto: The blocker against hair loss

The saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) is a proven remedy for hair loss, especially androgenetic alopecia, i.e. hereditary hair loss. It works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is known to shrink hair follicles, promoting hair loss. Products containing saw palmetto can effectively slow down this process and thus reduce hair loss.

Broccoli seeds: The power of sulforaphanes

Broccoli seeds contain high concentrations of sulforaphanes, which have powerful antioxidant properties. These compounds help detoxify the scalp and strengthen hair follicles. Sulforaphanes can reduce inflammation and improve blood flow to the scalp, which promotes hair growth. By strengthening the hair follicles, hair loss can be effectively prevented.

Millet: Silicon for strong hair

Millet is rich in silicon, a mineral essential for hair health. Silicon strengthens the hair structure, promotes elasticity and ensures shiny hair. In addition, it supports the formation of collagen, which is important for skin and hair health. Millet extracts are therefore a valuable addition to hair loss care.

Horse Chestnut: More blood circulation for the scalp

The horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum) is known for its positive effects on blood circulation. It contains aescin, which strengthens blood vessels and improves microcirculation in the scalp. Good blood circulation is essential for supplying the hair roots with nutrients and oxygen. This allows hair follicles to work better and promotes hair growth.

Hops: Soothing and Care

Hops (Humulus lupulus) are not only an important component of beer, but also a valuable active ingredient in hair care. Hop extracts have a calming and anti-inflammatory effect on the scalp. A healthy and well-cared for scalp is the basis for strong and healthy hair. Hops can also regulate sebum production and thus protect the hair from excessive greasiness.

Sage: Antibacterial effect for a healthy scalp

Sage (Salvia officinalis) has powerful antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. It helps cleanse the scalp and reduce dandruff. A healthy scalp is crucial for hair growth, and sage supports this with its cleansing properties. Sage can also help strengthen hair structure and reduce hair loss.
