To address your concerns about dark spots, acne, dandruff, oily skin, and headaches, it’s important to take a holistic Ayurvedic approach. The combination of oily skin and dandruff often indicates an imbalance in the body's doshas, particularly excess Pitta (heat) and Kapha (congestion). Begin by focusing on a balanced diet rich in fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, while avoiding spicy, oily, and processed foods that can aggravate these conditions. Incorporate cooling herbs such as Aloe Vera and Tulsi (Holy Basil) to help soothe the skin and reduce inflammation. Neem is another powerful herb that can help purify the blood and combat acne; you can use it in the form of capsules or as a paste applied to the affected areas. For dandruff, consider using a hair oil infused with Brahmi or Amla, which nourishes the scalp and balances oil production. Additionally, regular use of a gentle exfoliating scrub made from chickpea flour (besan) mixed with yogurt can help remove dead skin cells and reduce acne. To alleviate headaches, ensure you stay hydrated, practice stress management techniques like yoga or meditation, and consider herbal teas with ginger or peppermint for relief. It’s essential to be consistent with these remedies and give them some time to show results, as holistic treatments often work gradually.

Alright, so it sounds like you're dealing with a few things here. First off, let's tackle dandruff and oily skin. In Ayurveda, we often relate these to an imbalance in the Kapha dosha. This might not just be about your hair and skin—it could be related to your diet or even stress levels. For dandruff, think about applying some warm sesame oil or coconut oil on your scalp before showering, maybe twice a week. Leave it for about 30 mins, and then rinse with a mild shampoo. Stay away from really hot water, though—lukewarm is best. Diet-wise, reduce oily, fried foods, and, you might wanna cut back on dairy and sugary stuff too. Try to include more dry and light foods, like barley and quinoa. Now, about the oily skin—using a natural astringent like rose water can be helpful. Just dab some on a cotton pad and apply to your face after washing. Also, a paste made from sandalwood powder with a bit of rose water applied to the face can balance the oiliness. Make sure you're drinking a good amount of water too, this increases Pitta and helps clear toxins. About those white headaches, could you be referring to migraines? They might be due to a Vata imbalance or stress. Practicing Nadi Shodhana Pranayama (alternate nostril breathing) can sometimes help calm the mind and reduce headache frequency. Try incorporating some of these, but if headaches are consistent and severe, it's important to get it checked with a specialist. Ayurveda is all about balance, so see if these little tweaks help align things better, but don't neglect professional medical advice for severe conditions.
