Ayurvedic Powder for Hair Growth & Health

Discovering the Benefits of Ayurvedic Powders for Hair

Why does Ayurveda care about hair?

Ayurveda uses multiple herbs and botanicals to nourish your hair. Before we break down just what Ayurvedic herbs can do for your hair. We would like to give you a little context first. So, Ayurveda believes that hair is directly linked to bone tissue, the nervous system and your gut. This means that if you weaken any of these areas, your hair will suffer too!

In light of this, a ‘weakening’ in any of these areas is likely caused by a dosha imbalance. The ‘doshas’ are bodily forces which are governed by the elements. Including, air / ether (Vata), fire / water (Pitta), water / earth (Kapha). When out of balance, these forces can show up in the following ways:

• Vata – causes dry and brittle hair that lacks lustre and radiance
• Pitta – causes hair loss, thinning and a sensitive scalp
• Kapha – causes excess oil and greasiness

What can Ayurvedic Herbs do to help hair?

With the above symptoms of doshic imbalance in mind, Ayurveda uses herbs to remedy and rescue hair…
