Bhringraj is one of the Ayurvedic herbs and is famous as a magical herb that cures all hair related problems. Used since ancient times for its ability to fight hair loss and strengthen hair, it has recently found acceptance in most households as a hair care solution. It also improves scalp health, nourishes the scalp with necessary nutrients and stimulates hair growth. Bhringraj’s antifungal and antibacterial properties help treat scalp infections. Bhringraj also helps prevent hair breakage and split ends, a major threat that most of us face at least once. Many hair care brands use Bhringraj as a key ingredient in products such as shampoos, conditioners, hair oils, and masks.
However, to get the maximum benefits of Bhringraj, you can drink its juice. Juicing is a complete hair health solution as it helps detoxify the body, nourishes the hair, promotes hair growth, and even helps avoid premature graying of hair. Make sure the juice is BPA-free, sugar-free and use brinraj leaf juice rather than extract as juice is more beneficial. Just drink 30 ml of this juice mixed with the same amount of water on an empty stomach and within 30 minutes after dinner, and you will quickly get the desired result.
Another magical ingredient for hair is aloe vera, which is an excellent source of moisture. It is effective not only for hair but also for skin. Aloe vera deeply nourishes skin cells and rejuvenates hair. It also gently cleanses and conditions your hair, leaving it shinier and healthier. Therefore, it is a great option for those with curly hair, as it eliminates frizz and gives the hair the necessary elasticity. Instead of choosing chemically preserved aloe vera, fresh aloe vera that has been pulped within 4 hours will give better results. Use this pulp as a hair mask, gel, or leave it in your conditioner to end up with gorgeous flowing hair. As an added benefit, you can also consume Aloe Vera juice from Rajasthan and see the difference for yourself. Mix 30ml of juice with 30ml of water and drink on an empty stomach and 30 minutes after dinner.
Also, if you try Ayurveda-based products, make sure they are free of parabens, silicones, sulfates, and synthetic fragrances. In this way, you can get maximum benefit from Ayurvedic herbs. And with newly discovered information about these Ayurvedic ingredients and how best to use them, 2024 is definitely going to be the year your hair shines.
