onion extract for hair - #17190

Ayush

I am kinda worried about my hair lately. It’s been falling out more than usual, and I've tried everything from fancy shampoos to vitamins, but nothing seems to really work. A friend mentioned using onion extract for hair, and I thought that was kinda weird at first, but she swears by it. Has anyone actually had success with onion extract for hair? I looked up some stuff online, and it seems like there are lots of people who claim it really makes a difference, but then I also read some reviews that say it does nothing. I'm just not sure if I should give it a shot. I mean, what’s the deal with onion extract for hair? Is it worth the smell? Like, am I gonna walk around smelling like a salad? Would mixing it with something help with the odor? Plus, I’ve seen some articles saying you should apply it daily, which seems like a lot of effort. Do you think it can really help with hair growth? I’m desperate at this point and open to trying anything, but onion extract for hair? I just feel like I need some real-life experiences, not just the hype. What do y’all think?

Doctors' responses

Onion extract for hair growth is a bit of a mixed bag, really. Some people have found it beneficial, and there’s a small amount of scientific evidence suggesting onion juice may help with hair loss due to its sulfur content, which is thought to promote collagen production and potentially support hair growth. In a study, participants who applied onion juice twice daily reported better hair regrowth than those using tap water, but these results are far from conclusive. The sulfur might improve blood circulation to hair follicles, and its natural anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties could potentially remedy scalp conditions that hinder growth. However, individual experiences can differ greatly, and what works for one person may not work for another. If you’re contemplating trying onion extract, consider starting with a test patch to see how your skin responds, as the potency can cause irritation for some. To mitigate the powerful smell, mixing it with oils like coconut or olive oil can be helpful, and adding a few drops of essential oils like peppermint or lavender might also mask the odor. Rather than daily application, beginning with 2-3 times a week might give you a sense of its effects without overwhelming your routine. Remember that successful hair treatment often involves a combination of approaches, including diet, stress management, and avoiding harsh treatments on your hair. If you notice significant changes in hair loss or your scalp health worsens, it might be wise to consult a dermatologist to rule out underlying conditions such as hormonal imbalances or deficiencies that could better explain your hair loss.
