Despite the development of science and medicine, modern people are increasingly turning to the knowledge of their ancestors. Ayurveda, ancient philosophy and traditional medicine that came to us from India, was among the popular subjects for study. It consists of a whole complex of medical procedures aimed at healing not only the body and organism but also the subconscious and soul of a person. Today, the shelves of stores are represented by a wide selection of Ayurvedic products, and aren't the most among them those intended for the treatment of hair and scalp? But is this science so effective in combating common hair problems?

The main criterion for hair health in Ayurveda is its thickness. At the same time, it reflects not only the physical but also the emotional state of a person. Its beauty or vice versa, active shedding, or dullness can become an alarm bell, which it is desirable to pay attention to. 

The name Ayurveda comes from the Sanskrit words "ayur" (life) and "veda" (knowledge), that is, it means knowledge of life. It is an ancient system of Indian folk medicine. Ancient Indian knowledge of beauty is the basis of Ayurvedic cosmetics, enriched with plant extracts and biologically active ingredients that penetrate the deep layers of the skin and have a beneficial effect at the cellular level. According to the main criteria, these products are not tested on animals, nor do they contain any dyes, parabens, or preservatives. After all, the main ingredients of Ayurvedic cosmetics are traditional healing Indian herbs, such as neem, turmeric, amla, miswak, shikakai, bringaraj, tulasi, babul, cloves, henna, bibhitaka, dram, etc. In addition to such means for effective hair nutrition, Ayurveda recommends that you must massage your head every day, as well as comb your hair against growth at a slow pace. Also advises washing your hair only with barely warm (not hot) water and protecting it from extreme hot and cold temperatures by wearing a hat or cap in the heat, in the sun, and the minus cold.

In addition, Ayurveda advises choosing the right diet for hair health, in which your diet will definitely include healthy dishes, in particular, with a high content of protein, calcium, and vitamins. Of course, if you follow all the rules, you may feel an improvement in your health, but in general, do not rely on this science. Remember that Ayurveda is unproven science. And natural healing Indian herbs will help you improve the appearance of your hair, but they cannot solve a serious problem.

Therefore, if you are concerned about the condition of your scalp and hair, it is better to consult a doctor who will prescribe proven drugs. And with Ayurvedic means, you can simply maintain beauty or get some minor effect. 

Remember that healthy hair requires daily good care to delight you with its natural beauty. And what could be better than healthy and well-groomed hair, which will surpass any styling and fashionable haircuts. In the following articles, we will tell you how to choose the ideal care for your hair.
