Ayurveda and Hair Care
Ayurvedic teachings say that hair can tell a lot about a person’s body health as a whole and is the reflection of a nourished body. The health of the hair is affected by the care we give and our lifestyle. Factors like dosha type, your age, and hormonal fluctuations will also affect your hair look. If you follow these simple Ayurvedic tips you can maintain the health of precious locks.
A Healthy Diet for Healthy Hair
According to Ayurveda, our body’s health is inextricably linked to food and digestion. A dull and lifeless hair is due to
- Poor nutrition,
- Irregular meals,
- An unbalanced diet
- Hormonal Imbalances or Deficiencies
What do you need to do?
Nourishment of your body’s bone tissue and fat tissue is obtained by following a dietary routine. Food items likely to use are:
- fresh coconut,
- nuts,
- almonds
- Olive oil
- ghee
- spices that promote digestion such as fenugreek, turmeric, cumin
Care for your hair with Natural products
Shampoos and conditioners contain a chemical called Sodium lauryl sulfate that over time damages the hair. Herbal shampoos have to be chosen that are healthier for hair. clorine free water has to be chosen.
Use Warm Oil to massage your scalp
Hair growth can be promoted by massaging your scalp that will induce blood flow to the hair and nourish the follicles. Hair growth can also be stimulated by warm herbal massage oil. Massaging once or twice in a week has to be followed for dry hair.
Ayurvedic tip for dandruff
Dandruff can be removed by massaging your scalp gently with a few drops of lemon juice and base oils or neem oil. Leave it for an hour or a half and then wash it off.
Keep Stress in Check
Hair becomes unhealthy, prematurely grey and growth is disrupted by excess stress. Exercise, yoga asanas , meditation, and other stress-releasing activities helps to keep your stress levels in check, maintain a healthy mindset that in turn will promote healthy hair growth.
