I am a woman with severe hair fall, and thinning hair. I also have pigmentation on my face. Could you please help?

Hair fall with thinning hair could be a hormonal problem or it could be due to lack of proper nutrition and water intake. Get a blood test to clear any doubts. Take 6 teaspoons of fenugreek seeds; soak overnight. Blend to make a creamy paste. Mix with aloe vera gel, and apply in each hair parting. Gently massage the scalp. Rinse off after an hour; you do not need to shampoo, as aloe vera is a cleanser. This will take care of your problem. Do this twice or thrice a week. Pigmentation can reduce if you drink aloe vera juice every day, and apply a mask of aloe vera juice mixed with tomato juice and rice powder. Apply the mask daily for best results.
I am a 33-old-male from Kerala, India, currently living in Abu Dhabi. My hair is falling drastically. Please recommend a suitable hair fall antidote and re-growing treatment. One of my friends recommended that I apply castor oil on my scalp, especially on the areas where the hair fall has been particularly bad. An early response will be highly appreciated.

Onion juice is an excellent treatment for hair fall. Grate onion, squeeze out the juice, and massage it into your scalp thoroughly. After 20 minutes, take 1 teaspoon of castor oil, and massage all over scalp. Shampoo after an hour or leave overnight. Do this thrice a week for best results.

I am 21 years old. I have a lot of dark spots on my forehead that have been left behind by pimples - and they're giving me a really tough time! Please suggest some remedies.

Marks left by pimples need a gentle scrub every day. Take 1 tablespoon oats powder, 1 teaspoon rice powder, and enough honey and potato juice to mix and make a thick paste. Apply this mask on the face, and gently scrub. Doing this daily will help lighten the marks and also improve your skin.

Can you suggest a remedy for pimples/whiteheads on my eyelid? My skin is clear otherwise and free of acne and breakouts.
- Som
These are not pimples but oil- and sweat-filled eruptions. Dot them with tea tree oil and castor oil. This will cleanse and remove them from the base. Please do not squeeze them, as you will leave a permanent scar. Do this treatment twice daily for quick results.
