In Ayurveda, hair fall and thinning at the crown is mainly due to Pitta + Vata imbalance affecting Asthi dhatu (hair roots). 1. Internal support (root correction): Take Amla + Bhringraj daily (juice or powder) Consider Brahmi or Ashwagandha for stress-related hair fall Ensure good digestion (Agni) – avoid junk, very spicy, and acidic foods 2. External care (nourishment): Regular head massage (Shiro Abhyanga) with Bhringraj oil / Neelibhringadi oil 3–4 times per week, keep overnight if suitable Use mild herbal shampoo, avoid frequent chemical products 3. Lifestyle correction: Proper sleep (7–8 hours) is essential Manage stress (Pranayama, meditation) Avoid excessive heat exposure (sun, hot water) 4. For crown thinning (important): Early stage can be controlled and partially reversed Chronic thinning (since 2019) needs consistent 3–4 months therapy
