It sounds really challenging to deal with hairfall and dandruff for such a long time. It’s quite dissappointing when those conventional treatments don’t seem to do the trick. If we think the Ayurvedic way, it might be worth considering your doshas—basically, your body’s unique constitution. The root cause of such issues often ties back to an imbalance in Pitta dosha, but sometimes Vata can be involved too.
Diving straight into the suggestions, let’s start with a balanced diet. Increase your intake of green leafy veggies, nuts like walnuts and almonds, and seeds like flaxseeds. These are rich in essential fatty acids that nourish hair. Try to cut on spicy, oily, or junk foods, they can aggravate the Pitta dosha leading to more dandruff.
For hair care, use a specific herbal oil. Brahmi and Amla oil can be great. Warm it a bit, massage your scalp gently two-three times a week. This helps not just the hair roots but also relaxes the mind, reducing stress-related hair issues! Or, you might try a gentle herbal concoction such as a paste of fenugreek seeds. Soak them overnight, grind to a paste, and apply on the scalp an hour before showering. It’s an old ayurvedic gem for dandruff!
Also integrate yoga or some light exercises into your routine. Stress is often an overlooked factor in hairfall. Pranayama and meditation can calm the mind and balance doshas.
Importantly, check your digestion too. Ayurveda believes weak digestion can affect even your hair quality, so consider sips of warm water or herbal teas like ginger and lemon through the day.
And hey, consistency is your friend here. It might take a few months to truly see changes. If symptoms persist, it may require a closer look at internal factors or a personalized ayurvedic consultation. Remember, everyone’s body is different!
