The link between ginseng and hair loss - Ginseng is known to prevent the natural cell death. Furthermore, ginseng stimulates blood flow to the scalp, which in turn promotes growth!

Ginseng contains terpenidol glycisides, which help carry the nutrients better to the scalp, thereby strengthening the hair roots.

Step 2:

Peel and dice ginseng root into small pieces. Put it out under the sun to dry. When it is fully dry, grind it into a fine powder.

When the oil is mildly warm, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of ginseng extract. And using a fork, keep stirring for it to blend well.
