You’ve seen that ads on TV, you’ve seen the packs in the the chemist. So, why spend thousands of dollars on hair loss treatments when it could be a simple as your old favourite rum?
I remembered reading this curious fact the other day about rum-it’s said to prevent hair loss. Strong rum might put hairs on your chest- the good news is it will also apparently put hair back on your head. There’s only one problem; the cure is not by drinking the stuff- you have to rub it into your scalp!
Rum & Onion Hair Loss Remedy:
The most common concoction involves rum and onions, although there is another potion where you mix rum and apples. So in the interests of any rum drinkers struggling with hair loss, I thought it only fair that I share what I know.
It doesn’t seem to matter what quality of rum is used so for goodness sake don’t go with the old adage the more expensive the better it will work! I am sure any old cheap rum will do. The rum and onion cure is simpler and involves adding chopping up a small onion and adding the pieces to a cup of rum. You leave this for 24 hours, strain the mixture then massage your scalp with the rum.
Rum & Apple Hair Loss Remedy:
The rum and apple one is similar but involves adding a cup of finely chopped, peeled apple to a cup of rum and leaving for 5 days before straining. You again massage the rum into your scalp, but you then cover it with a shower cap so it can penetrate your scalp. Leave on for an hour (and hope like hell no-one comes to visit while you’re sitting there looking like Dr Gray.)
Does It Actually Work?
People on various blogs swear by these methods and as a Mum with a full head of hair I can’t say I have tried them to see if they work. But if all else fails you can lick the rum off your cheeks as it dribbles down your face from your scalp (though the onion/apple flavour might take some getting used to!)
Keep in mind I am making no promises and I must share the comment I read on a hair loss blog where someone wrote “I just picked up a fifth of rum down at the liquor store. What do I do now, pour it on my head?” The reply was “Yeah, so long as your head is tilted back and your mouth open!”

Does it have to be black rum?
Hi Radhika, I’m sure any rum is as good as another, I’m yet to hear from anyone who has had proven success,but if all else fails, it’s worth a try I guess!
I liked the Rum & Apple Hair Loss Remedy =. Looking forward at trying it on my sister as she is losing hair tremendously. Hope it works for dry hair and does not wreck havoc on her already damaged tresses.
Please let me know if she has success. I wish you and her all the best 🙂

Hi Ramsidan, please let me know how you get on!
I am male 25 and losing 34 to 40 hair due to scalp Psoriasis and i am on the way to become bald soon, so i am taking finpecia 1mg tablet from one month, I have started applying mixture of onion juice and olve oil yesterday i even tried rum and onion mixture.
My questions are:
1) Can rum and onion cure scalp Psoriasis?
2) How many times in a week should i apply mixture of rum and onion?
3) Can i keep this mixture on my scalp overnight.
Thank you
Hi Nitesh, I’m not a doctor, so can’t comment on your medications. If you have scalp psoriasis you might not want to put alcohol on it, as it might cause irritation. Best to pass on this one, I haven’t heard of anyone who has said it actually works, this article is just asking the question.

Hi Vibhuti, I have no idea unfortunately, I don’t even know if this works, but there are a lot of people talking about it, no one has confirmed it for us yet. Best of luck with your hair.
