Hair Loss Through The Eyes Of Ayurveda

Ayurveda looks at hair loss through the harmony of the three popular doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. In Ayurvedic principles, an inequality of these doshas can cause extremely severe health issues, including hair loss. The ayurvedic treatment for hair loss aims to revive harmony and diminish or eradicate hair loss. 

Dosha Imbalance

Vata Imbalance

 A surplus of Vata dosha can result in the outcome of dryness and depletion, impacting the hair follicles’ nourishment and leading to brittle and thinning hair.
null

Pitta Imbalance

Surplus Pitta can emerge as inflammation in the body, substantially causing the scalp to overheat and causing early graying or thinning of hair.
null

Kapha Imbalance

Substantial inequalities in Kapha may result in surplus oiliness and stagnation, which in turn can lead to clogging hair follicles and definitely hair loss.
