However, sometimes compositions made at home from the available ingredients show no less effectiveness. One of these tools is pepper tincture, used from hair loss, to stimulate their growth and strengthening.

People who are faced with the problem of hair loss, probably heard about the effectiveness of tincture of hot pepper. However, many are in no hurry to use this method, considering it to be overly aggressive and harmful to the scalp. However, with the right use of this tool, it only brings benefit.

The efficacy of the tincture is due to local irritant effect, due to which blood flows to the vessels of the scalp, nourishing the hair follicles and awakening those that are in a dormant state. Burn of the skin is excluded due to the presence of oils in the composition of the pepper. The essential oils contained in it also have a regenerating and protective effect on the scalp.

In addition, the tincture is enriched with B vitamins necessary for hair growth. They also contribute to the increase in density and growth rate. Vitamin A, which is necessary in the fight against tarnishness of the strands, and vitamin C, which strengthens local immunity and exhibits an antioxidant effect, is also contained here.

These properties of oil complex effect on the hair follicles, activating their activities and strengthening them. The following positive effects of pepper tincture are usually noted:

• strengthening hair, increasing the attractiveness of their appearance;
• increased intensity of hair growth due to better nutrition and blood supply to the hair follicles;
• help in the fight against hair loss, in some cases - treatment of baldness;

Many women use tincture to activate hair growth. It should be understood that this process is due to genetic factors. On average, a healthy person's hair grows 1-1.5 cm per month. It is important in this matter good nutrition, the absence of stress and bad habits, as well as the negative impact in the form of frequent dyeing, curls, etc.

The use of pepper tincture allows you to enhance hair growth and grow up to 2-3 cm per month. In rare cases, true reviews indicate a “gain” of about 4 cm per month. In other words, to hope that for a month of use of tincture it will be possible to grow a “scythe to the toe” is meaningless. At the same time, with a rational approach, the tool really demonstrates its effectiveness.

Reviews allow us to conclude that after 4-6 procedures, the hair becomes noticeably healthier and stronger - they stop falling out, and a light down is formed at the bald spot. However, this effect can be achieved only as responsibly as possible by approaching the preparation and application of the mask.

You can cook a pepper vodka, filling a pod of red hot pepper with vodka. You should use hot pepper in proportion: 1 pod per 1 glass of vodka. Vegetable pre-crushed. This is necessary so that he gives all his healing properties. The composition is infused in a dry dark place for two weeks. It is recommended to filter it before use. This recipe can be considered a classic.In addition, the finished infusion may be added to some other masks or contain additional components.

You can use the tincture on the basis of 1 part of crushed hot pepper and 8 parts of alcohol or vodka. It is necessary to insist the composition for 25 days, shaking it every 3-5 days. Apply it in its pure form is impossible, before use, the tincture is diluted with clean water in a ratio of 1: 10.

A mask with red pepper may seem overly aggressive to owners of dry scalp and hair. To soften it will help add burdock oil. To do this, pepper vodka is mixed with water and burdock oil. All components are taken in equal volume and thoroughly mixed.

Another option for dry hair is a mask based on a pepper vodka, castor oil and two egg yolks. The first 2 ingredients must be taken in a 1: 1 ratio, for example, 2 tablespoons each. This composition is not recommended for oily hair, as it can lead to a rapid salinization of the scalp.

If you are not allergic to honey, you can mix 2 tablespoons of peppercorns with 4 tablespoons of honey. It is possible to ensure uniform distribution of elements by preheating honey in a water bath.

On the basis of honey, you can also prepare a mask with ground red pepper. It is better to grind it yourself immediately before use, then it will retain its "vigor" and useful components. To prepare the mask, mix 4 tablespoons of honey with 1-2 tablespoons of ground red pepper.

The mask is applied to the scalp, which is insulated with a special cap or package. The use of ground product with honey allows you to get a less aggressive effect than when applying pepper equivalent on vodka. This composition will appeal to owners of too dry scalp, characterized by increased sensitivity.

If you do not dye your hair and are not going to do it in the next 1.5-2 years, you can use colorless henna and pepper tincture to prepare a strong anti-fallout mask. Henna has a firming effect, which is enhanced when it is mixed with pepper vodka. It is necessary to mix the ingredients in equal proportions, add a little kefir, yogurt or water to get a puree-like consistency. The composition should be applied to the scalp for an hour.

It is worth noting that stylists do not recommend using henna if you regularly dye your hair or plan to do it until you grow and cut the strands exposed to this product. This is due to the fact that even after a few months, the henna components remain in the hair structure and prevent it from being properly saturated with pigment. The result of this procedure may be unpredictable in relation to the final shade of hair.

After going through a certain preparation of the scalp to the effects of pepper vodka (more on this below) you can use a composition based on pepper vodka and onion juice. The latter helps to increase blood flow to the follicles. It is also rich in B vitamins, antioxidants, essential oils and microelements.

Apply this mask for half an hour. To get rid of the smell of onions will help add to the composition of essential oils. Good effect on the hair and scalp of tea tree oil, rosemary. However, you can use any options, the smell of which seems to you pleasant. A couple drops will be enough.

The first step is to prepare the scalp for the effects of an effective, but somewhat aggressive tincture.If this is not done, you can get burned. At this stage you should not use pepper vodka, it is enough to dissolve 2 tablespoons of ground red pepper with olive oil (4 tablespoons). You can also use burdock oil, known as a means of activating hair growth.

If the hair is short, you can reduce the amount of ingredients used. The main thing is to keep the ratio of pepper and oil to 1: 2. Such a gentle mixture is applied to the scalp with light massage movements, after which it is necessary to warm the head. The composition should withstand 15-20 minutes. Then you need to thoroughly wash it off (most likely, you will have to wash your head twice) and use the balm.

Preparatory mask should be applied every other day to the hair during the week, that is, you will get 3 treatments. After a week, you can put pepper on the head directly. However, at this stage it is recommended to use not the home, but the pharmaceutical tincture, as it is less aggressive. It is necessary to apply it first for 15-20 minutes, and then increase the exposure time to half an hour.

It is enough to apply a mask twice a week for 14 days. During this time, the effect will be noticeable, and the scalp will get used to such an effect. Then you can use the "heavy artillery" - homemade pepper vodka.

Homemade peppercorns, prepared according to the classical method, should also be used 2 times a week, leaving on the skin for 15-20 minutes. It is worth remembering that when applying a mask there should not be an unbearable burning sensation. When such a sensation appears, the mask should be immediately washed off. Also, you can not increase the time of exposure of the composition.

All masks that warm and improve blood circulation imply additional warming. First, the hair is closed with cellophane, and then a towel is wound on the head. Do not overtighten the towel too tightly, otherwise you may feel worse.

To obtain a positive effect, the pepper mixture should be used regularly, preferably with a course. As a rule, the latter is 8-10 procedures and lasts about 1.5-2 months. Then you should take a monthly break and, if necessary, repeat the action.

During the application of the mask should be a pleasant warmth and moderate burning sensation, which can be easily tolerated without discomfort. Severe burning may indicate intolerance to the components of the mask, uneven mixing of the ingredients of the composition, its high concentration or excessive prolonged exposure. In any case, the composition should be immediately washed off.

The exposure time of pepper tincture should not exceed 15-20 minutes. If the composition contains softening and reducing aggressive action of pepper vodka (components, oils, kefir, honey), you can increase the time the mask is kept up to 30-40 minutes. In this case, first of all, one should not look at the clock, but analyze one's own feelings.

Do not neglect the preparation of the scalp to the action of pepper vodka. During the initial application, leave the tincture on the skin for 5-10 minutes, gradually increasing the time to 15-20 minutes. It is recommended to apply the mask with a cotton swab, foam sponge or a special brush. Hands better protect gloves. Hands should be washed with soap after applying the composition.

Pepper tincture is intended to be applied exclusively on the scalp.Getting on the main canvas of hair, and especially on the tips, it has a drying effect. Protect hair from the negative effects of tincture, as well as with the benefit for health and beauty to spend the time needed for the "work" pertsovki, can be applied to the rest of the hair with balsam or oil. For hair, as a rule, use olive, peach and coconut oils.

If the mask prescription involves the use of essential oils, you should avoid their contact with the skin in its pure form. The fact is that they are concentrated and can cause a burn. It is better to dissolve a small amount of essential oil in oil-based (burdock, olive, peach) and mix thoroughly. The resulting oil solution is introduced into the mask.

It is worth considering that essential oils are strong allergens. Before their first use, it is advisable to carry out a special test - the essential oil should be applied to the skin of the wrist or at the bend of the elbow (on the inside). If after 15-20 minutes no irritation appears on the skin, and the smell itself still seems pleasant, you can use oil as part of the mask. A similar test should be carried out before the initial use of pepper tincture.
