What is Ayurveda?

Ayurveda is a 5,000-year-old system of health and wellness from India. It believes that the body, mind, and nature are all connected. In Ayurveda, taking care of your hair is not just about what you apply to it—it's also about what you eat, how you sleep, and how you feel inside.

According to Ayurveda, everyone has a unique mix of three energies (called doshas): Vata (air), Pitta (fire), and Kapha (water & earth). These doshas affect everything in your body-including your hair.

Pitta (Fire + Water)

Gives energy, helps digestion, and controls body heat.
Too much pitta = oily scalp, early greying, or hair thinning.
Needs cooling herbs like amla or neem.

Vata (Air + Space)

Controls movement, creativity, and flexibility.
Too much vata = dry scalp, frizz, and breakage.
Needs moisture from oils like sesame or almond.

Kapha (Water + Earth)

Builds strength and calmness.
Too much kapha = sticky scalp, dandruff, or heavy hair.
Needs deep cleaning with herbs like shikakai or reetha.

Everyone has a mix of these doshas, but one or two are usually stronger. Don’t worry if you don’t know your dosha! The hair care routine below works well for all types.

Step-by-Step Ayurvedic Hair Care Routine

Morning: Start Fresh

Apply a Few Drops of Oil
Take a generous amount of Bhringraj Trikalp Hair oil and rub it on your scalp with your fingers. This gives your roots strength.
