Achieving glowing skin and managing dry, brittle hair through Ayurveda involves a comprehensive approach that focuses on balancing your dosha, nourishing your body, and utilizing natural products. To start with glowing skin, considering your concern about dryness and anti-ageing, it seems like Vata imbalance might be a contributing factor.

For your skincare, it’s crucial to keep your skin hydrated and nourished. Try an Ayurvedic facial oil with ingredients like sesame oil or almond oil, infused with herbs such as saffron or sandalwood. These are known for their rejuvenating and hydrating properties. Apply gently on your face at night. As for a cream, a saffron or turmeric-based moisturizer can be beneficial.

In terms of dietary supplements, consider taking Triphala, a traditional Ayurvedic formulation consisting of three fruits that support detoxification and improve digestion, indirectly enhancing skin health. Combine this with a daily intake of amla (Indian gooseberry), a potent source of Vitamin C that boosts collagen production. It can take 6-8 weeks to notice significant improvements in skin texture and glow, provided lifestyle and dietary protocols are followed diligently.

For your dry, brittle hair, use coconut oil or Bhringraj oil for regular scalp massages. These oils help nourish and strengthen the hair roots, promoting shine and reducing dryness. Leave the oil in your hair overnight once or twice a week before washing it off. Incorporate shikakai or Amla powder as a natural shampoo alternative for cleansing without stripping natural oils.

For general dryness, include healthy fats like ghee and avocados in your diet, and increase your intake of hydrating foods—cucumber, watermelon, etc. Ensure you’re drinking enough warm water daily to maintain hydration.

Lastly, to integrate an anti-ageing routine, embrace practices like Abhyanga, the Ayurvedic body massage with warmed oil—sesame or olive oil—to deeply hydrate the skin and improve circulation. Perform this at least twice a week for best results. Take this comprehensive approach, and it should, gradually, lead to improvements in both skin glow and hair health.

For glowing skin, follow a balanced Siddha-Ayurvedic routine, which addresses the root cause based on your body’s dosha balance. Focus on enhancing your agni (digestive fire) with a diet that aids digestion. Incorporate warm, light meals with ghee or sesame oil to sustain moisture. Avoid raw foods, leftovers, or heavy, processed meals, as they influence the doshas negatively. Start your day with a glass of warm water and a pinch of turmeric, which purifies and balances.

For anti-aging, regular application of kumkumadi oil, a traditional ayurvedic formulation for the face, can promote glow and reduce fine lines. Apply it nightly after cleansing with a gentle herbal soap or face wash. Results may vary based on individual prakriti (constitution), but many see enhancement within 4-6 weeks.

For hair care, use bhringraj oil, well-known in Siddha for nourishing dry hair. Massage gently onto the scalp and leave it overnight before washing. Do this twice a week. Combine this with regular intakes of amla juice to promote internal nourishment, which contributes to hair strength and shine.

For body skin, use coconut oil post-bath to lock in moisture. Also, consider taking ashwagandha or shatavari supplements, which support skin elasticity and overall texture. Check any supplement with your local practitioner if you’re on other medications or have any conditions.

Finally, personalize these suggestions based on your lifestyle and routine, allowing a few months to see noticeable changes. Always prioritize safety and consult an ayurvedic practitioner if unsure.
