The typical methods for reversing hair loss such as minoxidil do work but it can be harmful to you whether topical affecting irritation of the scalp or oral affecting cardiovascular health by lowering blood pressure
However there's a natural method not talked about enough and that is
Peppercorn
Peppercorn contains piperine which studies show can suppress adipogenesis (fat‑cell formation) in hair‑stem cells
Basically it inhibited the process by which hair‑stem cells differentiate into fat cells, via downregulating a transcription factor (PPARγ) involved in adipogenesis

Now how to apply it
Take 2 tablespoons of black and white peppercorn and grind it till it becomes a powder
Then mix it with 90ml of rainwater which you have collected
Rainwater is preferred since it is pure and free of minerals, chlorine, and chemicals that might irritate the scalp
Now apply it to the scalp and wait 30 minutes before washing out
The pepper exfoliates the scalp which stimulates follicles
This process is similar to the process of micro needling
Possible irritation may occur so its best to do this every 3 days
Conclusion
Whilst minoxidil will probably work more effectively this is a great solution for anyone wanting to go down a natural route
However studies show that the effectiveness is not far off minoxidil revealing had a success rate of 63% in treatment of hair loss compared to minoxidil's success rate of 70%

Therefore I do believe this method to be beneficial to many
