Hair naturally falls out and we naturally regrow hair to replace it. If you have lost more than the normal daily amount and want to grow hair back, you will need to address the cause of your hair loss and at the same time, provide fertile ground for the new hair to grow.

There are essentially two ways to regrow hair: 1) surgical transplants that put healthy hair on bald areas where it will produce more hair naturally; or 2) nutritional supplements that target the specific needs of the hair follicle. Both are effective ways to grow hair. Which you chose will depend on your personal preference.

Surgical Transplants

When good hair is moved from the back of the head and replanted over bald areas, it will grow in the new place. It will continue to grow in the normal cycle of hair growth. Hair naturally rests for 2 – 3 months before falling out. Then the follicle, or bulb, will regrow new hair in its place for 2 -5 years. This process continues quite naturally after a surgical transplant. Therefore, the success rate of growing hair from surgical transplants is fairly high.

Nutritional Supplements

You will grow hair naturally when the balance and conditions of your scalp are normal and healthy. Unfortunately, many people have poor nutrition and have had for several years. Therefore, nutritional supplements are an excellent way to regrow hair. The nutritional supplements need to be designed specifically to target the needs of hair follicles and the needs of the scalp. There are particular vitamins and minerals that are necessary for this process to take hold. One advantage to taking this option to grow hair is that the nutritional supplements will also support the overall health of your body, not just the hair.

Either of these means is a safe and effective way to regrow hair. However, you should consider the cause of your hair loss before you decide on a plan to grow hair back. In the case of the hereditary condition known as androgenetic alopecia, you must know that this is caused by the effects of DHT. DHT will literally suffocate the hair follicles and cause them to die. Therefore, if you try either of these ways to regrow hair without considering the effects of DHT, you will only continue to suffer from hair loss.

In order to regrow hair you need to first address the cause of your hair loss. You can not successfully grow hair if your body continues to produce too much DHT. Therefore, any plan to regrow hair needs to include some sort of DHT blocker. You can get nutritional supplements that will also have ingredients that serve to block the DHT in your system and hinder the brain from producing too much DHT in the first place. This is certainly the best plan to grow hair because not only are you working to regrow hair, you are also working to keep from loosing too much hair as well.
