Premature greying from such an early age suggests Pitta-Vata imbalance, weak liver function, nutritional deficiencies, or hereditary factors.we need to focus on internal healing, diet, and stress management along with external care.
Amla (Indian Gooseberry) + Brahmi + Bhringraj Powder – Take ½ tsp daily with warm water to nourish hair from within.
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.

Having premature graying of hair can indeed be a concern, especially when it sets in sooner than expected. In Ayurveda, early greying is often attributed to an imbalance in the Pitta dosha, which can affect both your hair and scalp health. Given your description of having dry skin and scalp along with some hair weakness, I would suggest an approach that calms Pitta and nourishes Vata, as dryness is typically Vata-related.
First, consider your diet. Incorporating foods rich in healthy fats like ghee or coconut oil can help. These are not only cooling but also deeply nourishing. Try to include them in your meals daily; you can add them specifically when cooking veggies or chapatis. Additionally, ensure you're getting enough iron and proteins as they are essential for healthy hair. Think spinach, lentils, and nuts.
From an Ayurvedic point of view, regular oiling is beneficial. Opt for a cooling and nourishing hair oil, such as a combination of bhringraj and amla oil. Massage this into your scalp at least twice a week, leaving it in for one or two hours before washing it off. These herbs are famous for pacifying Pitta, promoting hair strength, and even preventing further graying.
Since your scalp is dry, avoid using overly drying shampoos or washing your hair too frequently. You might try washing just 2 to 3 times a week using a mild herbal shampoo.
Stress can also exacerbate Pitta imbalances. Practices such as yoga or regular exercise can help maintain a balance, along with pranayama or simple deep breathing exercises to calm the mind.
Finally, consider taking a rich anti-oxidant supplement or herbal concoctions like triphala. These not only purify the body but also promote healthy hair. But remember, changes in natural therapies might take some time, so patience and consistency will be key.
If you notice any unusual changes, or if the situation worsens, it would be wise to consult a healthcare professional for a check-up to ensure there aren't any underlying issues that require attention.
