well for one we cant promise its reversal but we can try and help so for that i would advise you to avoid sour foods, do nadi shuddi pranayama , take arogyavardhini vati in dose of 1-1-1 for 6 months get shiropichu (therapy that stimulates follicles and helps in reducing stress) with neelibhringadi taila done for 5 days each month and rest of the days you can yourself massage the same oil to your scalp leave it for 1 hour and wash off with mild shampoo (lal’s hibiscus shampoo preferred)
Premature greying 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) 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.
Avoid pickles, vinegar and other spicy and sour foods. You can practice head tapping twice a day. Anu taila 2-4 drops in each nostrils after brushing every morning.
Shirodhara will be helpful It can be done in any panchkarma centre Bhringaraj tailam to apply at hair Aswagandha leham two spoons with warm milk two times a day

Having a significant amount of grey hair at 32 can be concerning. Now, in Ayurveda, graying hair is linked with dosha imbalances, particularly Pitta dosha. While reversal is a bit complex and varies among individuals, you can aim for improvement with some time-tested ayurvedic measures. So let’s dive into some steps you might find helpful.
Start with your diet, since it’s fundamental in Ayurvedic principles. Opt for foods that balance Pitta like sweet, bitter, and astringent tastes. Include more fresh green vegetables, whole grains, and seeds. Try to have amla (Indian gooseberry) regularly as it is well-known in Ayurveda for nourishing hair. You can take it raw, as juice, or a part of triphala churna.
It’s also valuable to reduce caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods, as these can aggravate Pitta. Hydration is a key; ensure you drink enough water to flush out toxins from your system.
Consider practicing yoga and pranayama—yogic breathing can help a lot in managing stress, a potential culprit behind greying. Among yoga postures, focus on Sarvangasana (shoulder stand) and Parvatasana (mountain pose), which may strengthen hair health.
Ayurvedic herbs like Bhringraj and Brahmi are also beneficial. You could try Bhringraj oil for scalp massage before showering,_once or twice a week. Daily scalp massage gently with fingertips can enhance circulation.
Try to establish a regular sleep pattern too, as rest is a restorative process. Remember, don’t trust in quick fixes; patience and persistence are your best allies in wellness pursuits. Additionally, evaluate your stress levels, since chronic stress can exacerbate greying.
Before starting any herbal supplements, it’s best to consult with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner, especially if you are pregnant, nursing or suffer from any medical conditions. They can give advice further by tailoring suggestions to fit your individual constitution. Reversing gray hair can often slow, but with consistency and holistic approach, you can support overall healthier hair.
