Premature greying and hair roughness are often signs of an imbalance in Vata and Pitta doshas, leading to weakened hair follicles and reduced melanin production. To address this, I recommend nourishing your hair both internally and externally. Internally, herbs like Amla, Brahmi, and Ashwagandha can help rejuvenate hair, balance hormones, and reduce stress, which can contribute to premature greying. Externally, using oils like Bhringraj, Amla, and Brahmi oil for regular scalp massages will strengthen hair roots, promote growth, and restore natural color. Incorporating coconut oil or ghee in your diet, rich in healthy fats, can also nourish hair from within. Ensure you're consuming a balanced diet with adequate vitamins and minerals, especially iron, zinc, and B vitamins. A holistic approach combining both lifestyle changes and Ayurvedic treatments can help restore the health and color of your hair.

Hmm, premature greying and roughness can be quite distressing. It sounds like your hair might be calling out for a little love and balance. In Ayurveda, hair health is deeply tied to our overall health and primarily influenced by Pitta dosha imbalance — that fiery energy that when in excess can lead to greying and hair damage.
First things first, diet. Your diet plays a big role here. Try including more Pitta-pacifying foods. Think sweet, bitter, and astringent tastes. Eating cooling foods like cucumbers, melons, and leafy greens might help. Also, adding ghee to your diet to cool the body can be helpful. Avoid spicy, oily, and fried foods. They're like fuel to the Pitta fire.
Now, onto oils. Regular oiling can work wonders. Maha Bhringraj oil is calming and nourishing for hair. Apply gently on your scalp, massaging in circular motions, maybe 2-3 times a week. Let it soak for at least an hour before washing. A good ole' scalp massage increases blood flow and energises dormant hair follicles.
And for the roughness? A shikakai-infused herb wash might be your ally. It's natural and way less harsh than many shampoos. You can think of mixing it with amla powder — they’re both great rejuvenators.
Also, stress: it's sneaky and can really churn that Pitta imbalance. Maybe consider trying some meditation or yoga? And ensure you're sleeping well – sounds cheesy but, beauty sleep is a thing. Keep your head cool, literally and metaphorically.
Lastly, remember consistency is key in Ayurveda. It might take a bit of time to see changes, but try sticking with the practices. If conditions worsen though, do keep consulting with a healthcare professional. Hope some of this helps nudge you and your hair towards balance!
