Premature grey hairs and hair fall - #30822

Premature greying from such an early age suggests Pitta-Vata imbalance, weak liver function, nutritional deficiencies, or hereditary factors. Since some remedies haven’t worked, we need to focus on internal healing, diet, and stress management along with external care. Amla (Indian Gooseberry) + Brahmi + Bhringraj 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) with warm water 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.

Water twice daily – natural Vitamin C & anti-ageing tonic. 3 Narasimha Rasayanam 1 tsp morning empty stomach followed by warm. Water – improves hair texture, thickness, and skin health.

✅External care:

✅ DIET AND LIFESTYLE TIPS

✅ INCLUDE- -Amla (fresh or juice), black sesame seeds, curry leaves, walnuts, soaked almonds. -Green leafy vegetables, sprouts, seasonal fruits. Protein-rich diet (paneer, dal, legumes, eggs if you take).

✅ Lifestyle:

Daily oil massage to scalp + 10 min gentle head steam improves circulation. Practice Anulom-Vilom & Bhramari pranayama for stress relief. Ensure 7 hrs quality sleep – crucial for hair regeneration.

Reversing grey hair is very difficult, but Ayurveda slows progression and may restore pigment if greying is very early.

Hair fall, dryness & dullness improve significantly with consistent internal + external care.

Your premature greying is mainly due to stress, Pitta imbalance, and nutritional gaps. With consistent treatment and external care you can preserve your hair health in the long term

Wish you a good health😊

It’s essential to address both the stress and underlying dosha imbalances. Premature greying and hair fall are often connected to Pitta imbalance, sometimes aggravated by stress, lifestyle choices, and diet. First, aim to minimize stress: regular practices like meditation or yoga can be very helpful. Even a short daily practice can significantly reduce stress levels.

Regarding diet, incorporate Pitta-pacifying foods. These include cooling and soothing foods such as cucumbers, melons, and leafy greens. Reduce intake of spicy, salty, and sour foods, as these can increase Pitta. Hydration is also important, drink plenty of water throughout the day (lukewarm or room temperature) to keep your body hydrated and cool.

Ayurvedic herbs could be beneficial in managing premature greying. Consider integrating herbs like amla (Indian gooseberry), which is both cooling and rich in Vitamin C, promoting hair pigmentation. You can use amla powder or amla oil; apply the oil to your scalp twice a week and leave it overnight, if possible. Additionally, Bhringaraj oil is supportive in promoting hair health and vitality – massage your scalp with it once a week.

Avoid chemical treatments or heat styling, which may further damage hair. Instead, gently massage your scalp using almond, coconut or sesame oil to improve circulation and nourishment. Do this two to three times a week.

Sleep plays a vital role too, aim to maintain a consistent sleep schedule to repair and rejuvenate your body. Try to go to bed by 10 PM, as body detoxes best during the early hours of night.

Moreover, engage in regular physical activity. It boosts circulation and supports healthy hair growth. Maintain a routine that works with your study schedule, even short walks or simple stretches can be beneficial.

If the issue persists, consider consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized approach. They can provide insights tailored to your unique prakriti and any specific conditions you may have. Maintaining a balance is essential for health, and early attention can prevent more significant issues later on.
