Hair Problems and Ayurveda


Hair Problems and Ayurved :

Extensive and sever hair loss, premature graying of hair, baldness, alopecia, dandruff, split ends, excessive dryness of hairs. These are the some very common complaints about the hair. In these complaints the fall of hair is seems a very simple but serious issue. In the start almost all ignore towards it but when thick hair became thin and probability of baldness seems then seriousness is noted. Even premature graying is observed a lot a days. In ayurveda hair is said to be a „mala‟ (byproduct) of “Asthi Dhatu” (Bones). It is formed as mala whensarbhaga of asthidhatu is formed. Likewise body health of hair is also dependent on the food consumed. If the food taken provides rich nourishment to “Asthi Dhatu ” and if proper care of hair is taken , then the health of hair will be good.
In today‟s hectic lifestyle, consumption of fast food, bakery products, Chinese food, salty diet, outside food is increased. That‟s why the hair problem are tremendously increase due to sour salty products , the Pitta increase which goes to the hair follicle and thinning of root of hair follicles occurs which enhances the hair fall. If the pitta is increase to a great extend then premature graying takes place and younger person looks aged. The hair fall also increase in anemia and long lasting fevers. It the food increasing kapha dosha is taken in excessive the layers of “vikrut kapha” starts to form as scalp then it get dead and we call it as Dandruff, which also leads to hair fall. When this vikrut kapha get started at the hair root then glands at the base of hair follicle stop working and spots and pitches are formed which we term as Alopecia (Chai).
The treatment is done as per the reason behind it. Just use of different oils and shampoos doesn‟t give result but in contras hair fall and graying goes on increasing.
For this purpose internal (oral) medicines are given which provide nourishments to the Asthi Dhatu, Lower the increase abnormal pitta locally. Oils are also important for the application in used of nasya instillation of medicinal nasal drop is very beneficial. It strengthens a thickness hair root. 
Generally,
shampoos should be avoided Ritha, shikekai should be used.
Hot water shouldn‟t be taken on head at the time of bath.
Junk food, sour, soda products should be avoided and
proper treatment under the guidance of expert doctor should be taken at proper time so that there will not baldness and premature graying in early age.
