In Ayurveda, hair loss and conditions like alopecia totalis are often linked to an imbalance in the doshas, particularly Pitta dosha, which, when aggravated, can lead to hair fall and bald patches. The focus here is on calming down and balancing Pitta while nurturing the remaining hair follicles and underlying tissues (dhatus).

Firstly, focus on your diet, which plays a crucial role in managing hair health. Incorporating cool, lightweight foods like cucumbers, melons, and leafy greens can help pacify Pitta dosha. Reduce spicy and oily foods, as well as too much caffeinated beverages, which could be a trigger for hair loss.

Emphasize regular oil massage, or “Shiro Abhyanga,” with Brahmi or Bhringraj oil, which are known in Ayurvedic tradition to nourish the scalp and hair roots. Massage gently into your scalp about 30 minutes before taking a bath, at least twice a week. Warm the oil slightly before the massage to enhance its absorptive capability.

Consider using natural herbs like Amla and Ashwagandha, since they are beneficial for hair health. Amla (Indian gooseberry), with its high vitamin C content, acts as a powerful antioxidant; you can consume it freshly, powdered, or as a juice. Ashwagandha can be consumed as a supplement to help reduce stress, another common contributor to hair fall.

In line with Ayurvedic principles, avoid overheating your head; refrain from using hot water for head baths. Always go for luke warm water instead. Also, try to manage stress through practices like Pranayama and Yoga; stress management is crucial for reducing Pitta-related issues.

While some follicles are still active, these steps may support the possibility of regrowth. It’s essential to understand that changes may take time, and results can vary from person to person. As these approaches are generally safe, they may offer a supportive role even if you are exploring other treatments like transplantation in parallel.

Lastly, it’s worthwhile consulting with an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner in person, who can analyze your unique Prakriti and tailor a regimen specifically for you. Remember that at times it might be necessary to adjunct Ayurvedic strategies alongside other medically advised treatments, so a holistic approach remains ideal.
