Hair thinning and excessive hair loss can be distressing. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this could be due to an imbalance in the Pitta dosha, poor nutrition, stress, or an unhealthy scalp. Here’s a holistic approach to help manage and reduce hair fall:
Ayurvedic Tips for Hair Health:
1. Internal Remedies:
Triphala Churna: Take 1 tsp with warm water before bed. It helps detoxify the body and promotes nutrient absorption, which is vital for healthy hair.
Bhringraj Capsules or Powder: Known as the "King of Hair," Bhringraj can help nourish hair follicles. Take 1 capsule or 1 tsp of powder with water daily.
2. Hair Oil Massage:
Use a blend of Bhringraj oil and Amla oil (warm before applying). Massage into the scalp for 10-15 minutes, 2-3 times a week. It strengthens the hair roots and improves blood circulation.
Alternatively, use coconut oil infused with fenugreek seeds for a soothing, cooling effect that balances Pitta.
3. Dietary Advice:
Include foods rich in protein, iron, and vitamin E such as nuts, seeds, leafy greens, and lentils.
Consume Amla (Indian gooseberry) regularly, as it’s a natural source of vitamin C, which boosts collagen production and strengthens hair.
4. Lifestyle Tips:
Manage Stress: High stress can lead to hair fall. Practice yoga or meditation daily to help reduce stress levels.
Avoid hot water showers, as they can damage the hair and strip away natural oils. Use lukewarm or cool water instead.
Note:
If hair fall continues or worsens, it’s recommended to consult an Ayurvedic doctor for a detailed evaluation and personalized treatment plan, as it could be linked to underlying issues like hormonal imbalances or deficiencies.

It's super frustrating, right? Watching your hair thinning more than it should. But hey, let's get to the root cause, pun definitely intended. When it comes to Ayurveda, our hair health is often connected to dosha imbalances, mainly Pitta, sometimes Vata too. If there's excess heat or dryness, it can lead to more hair fall than you'd like.
Alright, first things first. Let’s look at your diet. Try to add cooling, Pitta-pacifying foods like cucumber, melon, and coconut water. Avoid spicy, fried, or acidic foods as they can aggravate Pitta, making things worse. Snacking on some sunflower seeds or almonds can be good too—they're rich in healthy fats and nutrients, which your hair loves.
Stress, often underestimated, is a biggie in this hair loss gang. How’s your sleep? Regular, refreshing sleep can do wonders. Consider a calming Ayurvedic tea before bed, maybe with chamomile or even brahmi.
When it comes to your scalp, gentle is the word. Massage your scalp at least twice a week with bhringraj or amla oil; it soothes and rejuvenates both the scalp and follicles. Let it sit for an hour before washing out. Make sure to use a mild shampoo, avoid harsh chemicals.
Exercise is another underrated friend of your hair. A short daily walk or yoga can improve blood circulation, boosting hair health. Plus, they help reduce stress! Ever tried Shirodhara? It’s relaxing and can pacify Pitta, maybe worth a shot if stress is a factor.
Don't forget to keep hydrated; water helps in flushing out toxins. Oh, and crossword puzzles, can help keep stress at bay! Ok maybe not but it's fun anyway! If things remain bad despite these, don't hesitate to get a medical opinion. Sometimes there’s more beneath the surface, you know?
Just remember, patience and consistency, this ain't a sprint but a marathon. 🌿
