Sounds like you’re on the right track, just a bit of fine-tuning and you’ll have it down. Multani mitti, or Fuller’s Earth, can be great for oily, flat hair as it helps absorb excess oil and gives the hair some volume. I’ll walk you through the process, with a few tweaks so you can avoid the mess.

To start with getting the consistency right, try mixing multani mitti with some yogurt or aloe vera gel instead of just water. It’ll give you a thicker paste that’ll stay put. Generally, you want about two tablespoons of multani mitti for shoulder-length hair. Add about two tablespoons of yogurt until you get a smooth, thick consistency – you might need to adjust a bit depending on your hair length and thickness. You can throw in a teaspoon of lemon juice if your hair’s extra oily.

Apply the mixture to your scalp and hair, mainly focusing on the roots where the oil tends to build up. Try sectioning hair using clips for easier application. If you want to evenly coat, use a brush or just your fingers – whatever feels more comfortable.

Leave it on for about 15-20 minutes – this should be enough for the mud to work its magic without over-drying. Rinsing is key as the mitti can be a bit stubborn. Use lukewarm water and give it a good rinse until it’s gone. A gentle, sulphate-free shampoo can help with any remnants.

Now for the frequency, once a week should do the trick. It’ll control the oil without dehydrating your strands. Keep an eye on your hair – if it feels stripped or too dry, cut down once every two weeks. And remember, Ayurvedic recommendations look at balancing and nourishing, so pay attention to how your hair responds and adjust based on your dosha and overall hair condition.

It’s a trial-and-error sometimes, nothing wrong with that, just be patient with your hair as you find the right balance.
