AYURVEDIC TREATMENTS FOR HAIR LOSS
In the Ayurvedic view of the body, your hair health reflects the unique combination of three doshas – Vata, pitta, and Kapha – in your body. Given that we all have each of these three doshas in our system, it is extremely likely that your hair will reflect characteristics of more than one dosha. It is, in fact, highly uncommon to find someone whose hair is exclusively Vata-type, pitta-type or Kapha-type. Here are the typical characteristics of each of these three hair types – you can refer to these and determine which characteristics best match your own hair. Ayurvedic hair loss solutions like Neelibringadi Keram, Kesini Oil and Virgin coconut oil contain essential nourishing ingredients like Bhringaraja, Brahmi, Amla and Neelini that help provide holistic hair care and act as natural remedies to combat baldness, dandruff, dry hair, split-ends and hair loss. • Vata-type hair – Healthy Vata-type hair is relatively thin in volume but tends to be coarse in texture. It grows rapidly and is usually curly, straight or somewhere in between. Owing to its rebellious nature, it can often be difficult to tame and style as you wish. • Pitta-type hair – Healthy pitta-type hair tends to be moderately thick, soft in texture, and straight in appearance. While it is easy to style, individual strands tend to be fine. • Kapha-type hair – Healthy Kapha-type hair is coarse in texture and tends to be very full and thick in volume. It is usually curly in appearance. This is typically considered as the most desirable type of hair. ESSENTIAL OILS Using essential oils mixed in carrier oils like coconut oil or sesame oil can be highly effective in strengthening your hair roots and activating your follicles. You can use essential oils like rosemary oil, thyme oil, lemon oil, lavender oil, peppermint oil, grapeseed oil, etc. based on your elevated dosha levels for regular scalp massage. AYURVEDIC HAIR CLEANSING SHAMPOOS You need to keep your scalp and hair clean by washing it at least twice a week with mild Ayurvedic shampoos or natural herbal cleansers. This keeps your scalp oil-free, which in turn controls dandruff and itchiness on your scalp. Here are some promising and natural herbal ingredients which you can use for hair cleansing: 1. Shikakai - It is a cleanser with natural saponins. Shikakai removes excessively produced oil from the scalp, while it does not cause too much ripping. You can use it in combination with reetha, hibiscus, or amla if you have dry and frizzy hair. 2. Triphala Churna - It contains three powerful herbs: haritaki, bibhitaki, and amalaki, which are very helpful in balancing all the three doshas. Mix a little water in triphala powder and make it into a fine paste. Apply the paste across your scalp and give it a gentle massage for a few minutes before rinsing off with water. 3. Aloe Vera - It has cooling properties and can act as a soothing scalp cleanser. It is very effective especially if you have aggravated Pitta. Apply fresh aloe vera gel over your scalp and leave it for about 15 minutes before washing off with water. 4. Hibiscus Leaves & Flowers - It is well known for its efficiency to promote longer and stronger hair growth. Grind hibiscus flowers and leaves into a slimy paste. Apply this on your scalp and spread it nicely as it lathers well. Then, wash it off normally with water. 5. Amla or Indian gooseberry - It is also a tridosha hara best known for its deeply nourishing properties. You can use amla in the form of a paste or decoction which can be combined with shikakai or reetha. View

CREATING A DAILY HAIR CARE ROUTINE
Ayurveda encourages both topical and systemic methods of treating the hair. Topical methods include activities that directly nourish the hair and scalp, such as oiling. On the other hand, systemic treatments include activities that nourish the body as a whole to rejuvenate the hair from within, such as dietary changes. The following tips will help you create an appropriate daily hair care routine so as to rejuvenate your natural hair and help it look its best. • Set aside time at least twice a week for a thorough head massage with oil. Choose an oil as per your dosha type, or opt for a neutral oil such as coconut or sesame oil. Remember to leave the oil on for several minutes so as to allow the goodness of the oil to be absorbed by the scalp. • Avoid heating and styling tools as much as possible, as this damage your hair to a very high degree. Allow your hair to dry naturally and avoid any tight hairstyles. • Brush your hair carefully with a wide-toothed wooden comb and avoid tugging at your hair, especially right after you have washed it. • Certain Ayurvedic herbal supplements can be taken as a remedy to restore internal tissue balance and thus improve hair health. Choose herbal tablets containing ingredients such as Brahmi, Bhringaraj, Amalaki, licorice, and hibiscus flower. You can also take Triphala tablets as a deeply rejuvenating option for the hair. Most of these tablets can be taken either before going to sleep or after meals. Another rejuvenating supplement to take is Chyavanprash. It helps to cool the body system and nourish the digestive system to optimize energy and vitality. • Adopt stress-relieving practices such as yoga and pranayama into your lifestyle. These help to improve circulation, boost muscle activity, and restore mental balance. Meditation also helps to enhance mental clarity and improve your sense of wellbeing. Other practices you can adopt for a healthier lifestyle include Sheetali Pranayama (cooling breath) and Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing). • Carve out time each day for an appropriate exercise regime. Exercise not only helps you stay in shape but also stimulates blood circulation and muscle functioning, thereby boosting overall health and improving the hair and nails as well. • Remember to always spare time to do things you enjoy. Amidst the stressful modern life, taking out time to read a book, take a walk or spend time with a loved one can keep you calm and restore your mental equilibrium. This, in turn, will help tone down your body’s response to stressful situations and thus allow your hair to be more nourished and less prone to damage. View
