Let’s start with bhringraj oil, the old favourite that refuses to go out of style. If you’ve ever spoken to someone who swears by Ayurvedic hair care, bhringraj usually comes up first. It’s often called the king of hair oils, and for good reason. For centuries, it’s been used to control hair fall and support new growth.
What makes bhringraj special is how it works on the scalp. It’s believed to improve blood circulation, which means your hair follicles get better nourishment. Stronger roots usually mean better growth. It’s not instant, but it’s steady. Warm a little oil and massage it into your scalp for about 15 to 20 minutes before washing. Once or twice a week is enough. Some people leave it on overnight, especially if the scalp feels dry or irritated. Over time, hair feels stronger, breakage reduces, and the density improves quietly, without drama.
Then there’s amla oil, the classic most of us grew up with. Made from Indian gooseberry, amla oil is rich in vitamin C and antioxidants. It strengthens hair from the roots and is often used to delay premature greying. It also helps keep the scalp balanced, which is great if dandruff or dryness keeps coming back.(Image Credits: Pinterest)
