can i apply curd on hair - #36782
I am really confused about this whole hair care situation. For the last year, my hair has been falling out more than usual, really stressing me out. A friend suggested that I try some natural remedies, and of course, I remember hearing about how beneficial curd can be for hair. I saw a video online talking about applying curd on hair, giving all these benefits like shiny, soft hair and helping with dryness?? That sounded amazing, but I’m not totally sure. So, can I apply curd on hair directly? I've tried a couple of things already—like oils and masks—but nothing seems to stick, you know? I have read that curd can also help with dandruff and scalp issues too, which I kinda deal with sometimes. Just last week I mixed some curd with a bit of honey and it felt nice, but then I wondered if that was just a waste of time. Also, how long should I leave it in? Like, is it a quick thing or do I need to let it sit for a long time? And do a lot of people do this regularly? I’ve heard mixed thoughts. Like, I really wanna know if there are any side effects or if I could mess things up more. Can I apply curd on hair often? Help!

Yes, applying curd (yogurt) to your hair can be beneficial. In Ayurveda, curd is considered nourishing due to its balya (strengthening) properties, and it can support scalp health and hair texture. It is often used to combat dandruff, dryness, or even hair thinning. When applied to the hair, curd acts as a natural conditioner. The lactic acid in curd helps exfoliate the scalp mildly, which can help address dandruff and improve hair health. It’s moisture-rich, making it suitable for dry or frizzy hair.
To use curd effectively, apply it directly to your hair and scalp. Take fresh, plain curd, and massage it into the scalp, ensuring it covers the hair from roots to ends. You can add ingredients like honey or lemon if you’re dealing with dry scalp or dandruff. Honey is excellent for moisture and has mild antibacterial properties, while lemon can help with detoxification if used sparingly.
Leave the curd in your hair for about 30 minutes to 45 minutes. This gives your hair time to absorb the nutrients and moisture. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and follow up with a mild shampoo if necessary to remove any lingering smell or residue.
You may wonder about frequency. Once a week is a good start. Observe how your hair and scalp respond; if it suits you well, you could even do it twice a week. Monitor for any adverse reactions like increased hair fall or any allergic reaction. Although curd is usually safe, its moisturizing effect might not suit those with extremely oily scalps. If a problem persist or seems to worsen, consider further consultation for personalized advice on your dosha balance or any underlying health issues affecting your hair.
Curd is generally beneficial, but as with any remedy, individual response can vary. Regular applications can improve your hair’s condition, but it’s crucial to complement it with balanced diet rich in essential nutrients & proper hydration.
