1. Chamomile - This herb is great for not only its ability to help with healthy hair growth but also in its helping in reducing stress levels. You will find that in some cases stress is directly related to hair loss, so the reduction in stress should help in that area also.

2. Catnip or Burdock - These two herbs are useful for healthy hair growth; this in turn reduces the effects or risk of hair loss. You will usually find these two herbs in a solution, such as in a hair loss shampoo or conditioner, which you apply, as you would normally use one of these products.

3. Saw Palmetto - One herb that seems to be having more written about in than many other herbs used for treating hair loss is this one. It helps to promote health growth by reducing the levels of DHT, a hormone in the body that if produced in excess amounts eventually weakens the hair follicles.

4. Green Tea - There was a study done in Japan that showed a benefit by drinking green tea. The tea helped by increasing the sex hormone binding globulin. The effects of this are that testosterone production is lowered; a major cause of hair loss in women is testosterone.

These are by no means the only herbs for hair loss you will find. There are many other herbs available that have been shown to help, in some form or another, with this condition. A few of these are Apple Cider vinegar, Sage Tea, and Psoralea Seeds, all of these herbs would be applied directly to your affected area. Some others are Ginger and Liquorice Extract. The results you will see from any of these will very greatly, you will have to try each out to see how they will work for you.
