Hello I can totally undrstand your concern. Hair fall in a child of 10 years can really put parents in a scary situation. But do not worry – children in most cases heal very fast with mild Ayurvedic treatment 😊
YOUR CONCERN
Your daughter is going through the following conditions:
Hair fall in the last 3–6 months No significant diet or lifestyle changes No dandruff, itching or any other scalp problems No weakness or any other illness has been reported
Among kids, hair fall can be mostly attributed to lack of nutrition, weak digestive system, or minor dryness of the scalp. With a simple, safe Ayurvedic treatment, this can be reversed completely.
INTERNAL MEDICATION (All are safe for children, mild and suitable for 10-year-olds)
1. Amalaki Rasayan – ½ tsp every morning with warm water Help to build the body defense system, improve hair roots health and increase natural hair growth.
2. Draksha Avaleha – 1 tsp at night Feeds the body, keeps the stomach strong and helps in nutrient absorption.
3. Balaprash (Ayurvedic children’s formulation) – 1 tsp daily An excellent Rasayana for kids. Improves the overall body strength and decreases hair fall.
Visible results will come if you keep doing these for 2–3 months.
EXTERNAL CARE
Hair Oil (Child Safe): Bala-Ashwagandha Taila Method: Warm a little Apply on scalp Massage gently for 5–7 minutes Keep for 1–2 hours Wash with mild herbal baby shampoo Do this 2 times a week
Just by doing this, hair fall decreases by 40–50% in 4–6 weeks.
HOME REMEDIES
1. 10 soaked black raisins every morning 2. 1 tsp white sesame seeds daily 3. Coconut water 2–3 times a week 4. Amla juice (1 tbsp) with water 3–4 times a week
They are loaded with natural iron, calcium and Vitamin C which are very important for hair roots.
DIET PLAN
INCLUDE
Ghee (½–1 tsp daily) Dal, khichdi, vegetables Sprouts Almonds (2–3 soaked) Amla / pomegranate Warm home-cooked food
AVOID
Chips, packaged snacks Excess bread, bakery items Cold drinks Long gaps between meals Frequent oil-free diet (kids need healthy fats)
LIFESTYLE TIPS
Good sleep (9–10 hours) Hair wash 1–2 times/week Do not tie your hair too tightly Do not use harsh shampoos or conditioners Keep the scalp clean and dry
INVESTIGATIONS (ONLY IF HAIRFALL CONTINUES AFTER 2 MONTHS)
Hemoglobin Vitamin D Thyroid (TSH) Calcium levels Most of the kids get better without any tests — these are only if the hair fall is persistent.
With mild Ayurvedic Rasayana support, children’s hair fall gets better quite rapidly. You can see the hair fall getting reduced significantly in 4–6 weeks and good hair regrowth in 2–3 months.

In addressing your daughter’s hair fall issue, it’s important to first identify potential underlying causes, which can include nutritional deficiencies, stress, or dosha imbalances. Since she is 10 years old, using gentle and balanced approaches will be essential.
Firstly, consider her diet, as hair health is closely tied to nutrition. Ensure she is receiving adequate amounts of iron, vitamins A, C, D, and biotin, which are crucial for healthy hair. Foods like leafy greens, nuts, seeds, and fruits should be part of her daily intake. Encourage the consumption of almond and walnut as these provide essential fatty acids beneficial for hair strength.
In Ayurveda, hair fall often relates to imbalances in the Pitta dosha. To calm Pitta, encourage a diet that avoids spicy, oily, and fried foods. Cooling foods like cucumbers, coriander, and cilantro can be beneficial. Additionally, proper hydration is key, so ensure she drinks sufficient water throughout the day.
Application of Ayurvedic oils can be helpful too. Amla oil is traditionally used to promote hair health and may be suitable for your daughter. You can apply it gently to her scalp twice a week, leaving it for about an hour before washing off with a mild, natural shampoo.
Avoid over-washing her hair, which can strip natural oils—twice a week should suffice. Stress management is also crucial, so encourage relaxing activities that are enjoyable for her, like drawing or playing outdoors.
In the case where dietary changes and topical treatments do not improve her hair condition, consulting a pediatrician or Ayurvedic practitioner could provide more personalized insights. They may suggest specific tests or remedies to address any underlying health issues contributing to her hair fall.
Remember, while it’s useful to try these methods at home, ensuring a gut is functioning well and addressing digestion can be beneficial for overall nutrient absorption, often paving the way for healthier hair.
Start with Amalaki Rasayan 1/2tsp once daily after food with water Ashwagandha churan 0-0-1/2 tsp at bedtime with milk Apply Neelibhringadi oil twice weekly keep overnight and wash in the morning with herbal anti hairfall shampoo Avoid direct Sun rays exposure to Head, use hat or scarf when going out during the day Include fresh green vegetables semi cooked sauted in the diet Black dates 1 per day daily Seasonal fruits and seasonal vegetables in the diet.
Hair fall in children can be concerning, and it’s important to consider various factors that might be contributing. In Siddha-Ayurvedic terms, hair health is often linked to imbalances in the doshas, particularly Vata and Pitta. When out of balance, these can affect the scalp and hair follicles, leading to hair fall.
For a 10-year-old, ensure her diet is nourishing her dhatus (tissue systems), particularly the Asthi dhatu, which encompasses bones and hair. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in foods like flaxseeds and walnuts, can support hair health. Amla (Indian gooseberry) is also beneficial; it can be given directly or in the form of Amla juice, which helps balance Pitta and strengthens the hair roots.
Identify if there is any significant stress or changes in her routine, as these can disturb Vata and impact hair health. Ensure she is getting enough restful sleep and consuming a balanced diet—rich in greens, proteins, and whole grains.
In terms of application, a gentle oil massage can be useful. Coconut oil mixed with a few drops of Brahmi or Bhringraj oil can be applied to her scalp, twice a week. Warm the oil slightly before application, and leave it on the scalp for about an hour before washing. This helps sooth the mind and reduce Vata, fostering hair growth.
If scalp issues like dandruff occur, it may signal excess Pitta or Vata; use a mild herbal shampoo suited for children. If the hair fall continues or worsens, consult a pediatrician to rule out any underlying conditions like nutritional deficiencies or thyroid issues. Addressing the root cause is key.
