Prevention Oatstraw and horsetail tea are rich in silicon and trace minerals. Rosemary helps prevent premature baldness and stimulate head circulation. Sage is an astringent, and helps stimulate growth. Yarrow helps liver activity.It is said that you must faithfully do your selected hair treatment for three months before you will see results. Diet and Lifestyle Pathya: Fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, nutritious food, adequate sleep Apathya: Avoid salt, sugar, tobacco, and alcohol. Overconsumption of salt and sugar increases dandruff and hairloss. Avoid large amounts of vitamin A.

Avoid strong soaps, shampoo or hair sprays. Only use mild castile soaps. Hats and wigs are apt to cause hair to fall out faster, since they limit the air to the scalp.

Avoid tension, stress, worry and hurry.

1) Bhringamalakadi Taila - extly apply and massage for 10 min. - 2 time 2) Jeevamrita Leha or Chyavanaprasha Leha-1 tsf 2 times with milk after food 3) Shuddha Shilajatu-250mg + Saptamrita Loha - 500mg + bhringaraja Churna -3gm - after food with honey and ghee 2 times For dandruff Apply Scurfol lotion leave it for 30 min and take bath Diet and Lifestyle Pathya A little sunlight is good for your scalp and hair. Keep calm and relaxed. It will help your hair. A short fast is a good way to begin the program. Then begin eating only nutritious foods. Anti-microbial shampoos are often recommended, but there is no evidence that this germkilling factor lessens the dandruff. To help control appearance, cleanse with a shampoo, designed to help control dandruff. Wash the hair in vinegar, to remove all the loose scales. Apathya Shampoos containing selenium sulfide can cause eye damage and hairloss. Plain water alone is also good. Reduce intake of fats, grease, and all fried foods from the diet. Stop the use of alcohol. Check to see if you have food allergies (wheat, dairy products, citrus, or something else). Avoid stress and poor elimination. Do not use strong, irritant shampoos or hair treatments. Avoid chocolate, sugar, white flour, and seafood.

Excess dandruff and hair fall can be a sign of underlying imbalances in your doshas, particularly Vata and Kapha. In Ayurveda, balancing these doshas can restore hair health. Begin by focusing on your diet and lifestyle, as they play crucial roles in maintaining healthy scalp and hair.

Dietary Adjustments: Include foods that balance Vata and Kapha, such as warm, cooked meals incorporating ghee, sesame oil, and spices like black pepper, cumin, and turmeric. Avoid cold, dry and excessively oily or spicy foods. Keep hydrated, as dehydration can aggravate dandruff.

Hair Oil: Apply oil to the scalp should be your routine. You might consider using “Kesh King Hair Oil” as it contains herbs beneficial for hair nourishment. Warm the oil slightly and massage your scalp in circular movements to improve circulation. Leave it for at least an hour or overnight before washing off.

Shampoo: For a dandruff-focused shampoo, “Khadi Natural Neem and Aloe Vera Herbal Cleanser” could be suitable. Neem is good for reducing dandruff while Aloe Vera soothes the scalp. Use it twice a week and rinse thoroughly to avoid any residue buildup that may contribute to dandruff.

Ayurvedic Medication: You might take “Triphala Churna”, a traditional Ayurvedic remedy to detoxify the body and improve digestion, which subsequently supports hair health. Take it with warm water at night.

Reduce stress levels through meditation or yoga, as stress can exacerbate hair fall. Ensure regular exercise but avoid strenuous activity that may vitiate Vata further.

If dandruff and hair fall persist despite these interventions, consulting with dermatologist or a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner is advisable. They can provide tailored recommendations based on your body’s specific needs and ensure that there’s no fungal infection or other scalp condition requiring more direct treatment.

Your hair fall and excessive dandruff could be related to an imbalance in your doshas, particularly the vata and pitta. This can also affect your scalp health and hair texture. Let’s address each aspect systematically.

First, for the dandruff, a consistent cleansing routine using a natural, gentle shampoo can help. Look for an Ayurvedic shampoo containing ingredients like neem or tea tree which are known for their antifungal properties. A commercially available herbal shampoo with these ingredients could be effective. Himalaya’s Anti-Dandruff Shampoo with tea tree oil is a reasonable choice. Use it 2-3 times a week. Make sure to rinse thoroughly to avoid leaving any residue.

For hair oil, consider using a therapeutic oil with herbs that pacify vata and pitta. Bhringraj oil is traditionally used in Ayurveda for hair health. You might find Indulekha Bhringa Hair Oil or other similar bhringraj mixes beneficial. Apply the oil gently to your scalp and hair, leaving it on for at least an hour before washing — or overnight if possible. Do this 2-3 times per week to condition the scalp and strengthen hair roots.

Internally, ensure your diet is nourishing to support hair health. Increase your intake of seeds, nuts, and whole grains. Including amla (Indian gooseberry) in your diet can significantly support hair growth. You can consume it fresh, in powdered form, or as a juice.

Since hair health is closely tied to digestion, consider enhancing your digestive fire (agni) by consuming warm teas with ginger or simply drinking warm water throughout the day.

While these remedies may improve your condition, if your hair fall continues to worsen or you experience other symptoms, consult a healthcare professional or an Ayurvedic practitioner directly to address any underlying issues.
