Ah, I see. You’ve been grappling with hair fall for quite some time and it sounds frustrating. Ayurveda looks at hair fall as connected to an imbalance in your doshas, perhaps mainly Pitta. When Pitta gets aggravated, it can heat up your system causing hair loss and other issues like dandruff. Let’s dive into this with a few steps.
First things first, focus on cooling down that Pitta. You can try washing your hair with amla water twice a week. Boil a handful of dried amla or Indian gooseberry in water, let it cool and use this as a rinse after your shampoo – it helps keep the scalp cool and nourished.
About oils, it sounds like you react with dandruff – tricky, right? How about trying a gentle head massage with coconut oil infused with neem leaves? Neem is great for tackling dandruff. Just warm a small amount of coconut oil with some fresh (or dried) neem leaves, let it cool and strain it. Massage it lightly before washing your hair, maybe twice a week. But if you notice any irritation or the dandruff gets worse, stop.
Let’s also talk about diet. Keep it balanced with plenty of green veg, protein, and healthy fats. Make sure you’re getting enough vitamin C and iron too, as they support hair health. Hydration is key, drink water, and herbal teas for overall balance. Triphala tea can be a good start for its cleansing properties.
Please take a peek at your daily routine – are you getting enough rest? Stress can play a big part in hair health, so try to squeeze in some meditation or yoga, even if it’s only a few minutes a day. Could make a big diff!
If things don’t improve, it’s best to consult a practitioner for a personalized assessment. They can dive deeper into your specific prakriti and find the root of these issues. And hey, if anything feels severe or out of hand, don’t hesitate to reach out to medical professionals. Hair health often points to deeper body imbalances, so resolving this could lead to feeling way better overall.
