Ashwagandha -1/2 tsp with warm milk at night Triphala (½ tsp at bedtime) Curry Leaves (Kadi Patta) Juice or Powder –take with buttermilk or warm water.

Eat black sesame seeds + jaggery (1 tsp daily). Drink fresh Amla juice or consume raw Amla daily. Include ghee, soaked almonds, walnuts, dates, and coconut in your diet. Avoid spicy, fermented, and processed foods, as they worsen Pitta. Henna + Indigo Powder – Natural remedy for greying (if you want to darken the hair naturally). Rinse hair with black tea or curry leaf water.

You’ve been dealing with a frustrating scalp situation, haven’t you? Dandruff, itchy scalp, hair loss, they’re definitely signs that your scalp’s trying to tell you something isn’t quite right. Especially since you’ve mentioned an oily scalp, it points towards an imbalance that could be managed quite well with Ayurveda.

Let’s think about the doshas for a moment. An oily scalp with dandruff often indicates an imbalance in the kapha and pitta doshas. Begin by focusing on external and internal ways to soothe and balance this disruption.

First off, consider using a hair oil treatment. A light Ayurvedic oil like Brahmi or Bhringraj can do wonders. Warm the oil slightly and massage it into your scalp using circular motions. Do it gently for about 10-15 minutes, which not only boosts circulation but also increases nutrient absorption. Do this twice a week.

Herbal hair rinse might be another good ally. Boil neem leaves in water, cool, and use this as a rinse after your shampoo. Neem’s got those anti-microbial powers to combat dandruff and helps with itchiness too.

When it comes to your diet, cut down on sugary, oily, and spicy foods. Instead, focus on foods that balance pitta and kapha: cooling and bitter food articles like leafy greens, aloe vera juice and coconut water are great. Increasing your intake of water helps to keep body’s metabolism balanced so scalp is less oily.

Keep stress levels in check; high stress can aggravate hair fall. You can try practicing yoga or meditation for 15-20 minutes daily. Even just few mindful breaths sometimes help.

Ensure that you wash your hair with lukewarm water and keep away from blow drying. Let the hair air-dry naturally.

It’s also worth checking with dermatologist if things don’t improve in few weeks, just to rule out other potential causes.

These steps should help you restore balance and see improvement gradually. Remember, patience is key in any holistic approach.
