However, she decided to take matters into her own hands after discovering a huge bald patch at the front of her scalp.
“Here’s what the doctor advised me to do for hair loss”, she said.
Wash Frequently
Mabel advised washing your hair every day with a good quality shampoo.
She said that if you don’t your hair will be clogged up with so much dirt that your hair will not be able to grow properly.
Scalp Massaging
Mabel revealed that to get your locks looking long and luscious, you should massage your scalp every day.
“You can do it with a shampoo, brush or simply just using your fingers like this”, she said, demonstrating massaging her scalp.
Scalp massaging increases blood flow to the scalp, which can make hair grow faster and healthier, and increase hair thickness.
You can pick up a scalp massaging tool for £4 from Boots.
Hair Oiling
Mabel said that she oils her scalp twice a week, to ensure that her hair is thick and healthy.
She massages an oil such as rosemary oil on to her scalp, leaves it for two hours, and then rinses it off.
Rosemary oil has been proven to stimulate hair growth.
You can pick up a bottle from Boots for £6.
“If you want to see good results, don’t be lazy”, Mabel said.
Hair loss tips
We can lose between 50 and 100 hairs a day, according to the NHS.
It is not usually something to worry about, but occasional it can be a sign of a medical concern.
These include illness, stress, cancer treatment, weight loss and iron deficiency.
The NHS advises to book an appointment with your GP to see if you can get to the cause of it.
Experts at American Academy of Dermatology Association also recommend to eat healthy, limit curling irons and only use them for special occasions.
They also recommend using a gentle shampoo, and make use of leave-in conditioners.
“Small changes like this can actually make a big difference.”
Mabel’s video, posted to the username @xmabelyss has likely left many people impressed, as it has racked up over 1.1 million views on the video sharing platform.
TikTok users raced to the video’s comments section to share their thoughts on her tips.
One person said: “Your hair looks so healthy”.
A second person said: “I use rosemary oil, a massager, nettle shampoo with vitamin K and an avocado mask and my hair falls out less and I have baby hairs”.
A third person said: “Your advice is very good!”
