I Tried Onion Juice for Hair Growth
Okay, I’ll admit it — when I first heard people talking about using onion juice for hair growth, I thought it sounded… gross. Who wants to walk around smelling like a salad? But after seeing so many people raving about it online, curiosity got the better of me. I figured, if something so simple (and cheap) could actually help with hair thinning, why not give it a shot?
Turns out, there’s a reason this remedy is making waves in the wellness space. Onions are packed with sulfur, antioxidants, and anti-bacterial properties — basically, all the stuff that can help strengthen hair follicles, improve scalp health, and maybe even stimulate new growth. If you’re curious about the process, I found this great step-by-step article that explains how to make, store, and apply onion juice for your hair:
I followed the basics: blended a couple of onions, strained the juice, and applied it to my scalp. Yes, the smell is intense. But if you’re determined enough, you deal with it. What helped me most was watching tutorials like this one on Pinterest — it made the whole process feel less intimidating:

One thing I learned quickly? Storage matters. You can’t just leave the juice sitting around for days. I found a LinkedIn post explaining how to keep homemade natural treatments fresh and safe — and it’s honestly worth reading if you’re planning to use this regularly:

As for results? It’s not an overnight miracle, but after a few weeks, I noticed my hair feeling thicker at the roots. It wasn’t just me — I came across an inspiring Instagram story from someone else who saw their hair transform after sticking with onion juice:

Of course, this isn’t just about the juice. It works best when you treat your hair holistically. I read this Facebook post that talks about how onion juice fits into a full routine with oils, diet changes, and scalp care — and I think that approach makes sense:

There’s definitely debate around whether natural remedies like this can outperform fancy products. Just look at this Twitter conversation where people argue about which is better — and honestly, both sides make fair points:

But what keeps me curious are the real stories from everyday people. I’ve been following this thread, where folks share their hair journeys, setbacks, and wins with onion juice. It feels good to know I’m not the only one experimenting and figuring it out:

So, yeah, I was skeptical, but now I’m kinda hooked on seeing where this goes. It’s natural, affordable, and for me, worth trying.
