I use it to make oily macerates for hair and scalp applications, or included as such in hair masks, combined with oils and butters, manjishta and ashwagandha. I also use neutral henna in parallel. After a couple of covid episodes and a period of prolonged emotional stress/consumption, my hair had fallen out extremely hard, thinning, very limp and lifeless. Combined with a proper lifestyle and diet, internal supplements and lots of detangling/relaxing, the hair thickens, becomes stronger, regenerates well and looks much healthier. I apply in between washes and floral or herbal waters (purchased or distilled by me) helpful for hair/scalp and have found it's good to combine with baking soda, I probably had too acidic an environment on my scalp.
I discovered this powder recently but better late than never. In combination with Amla and red clay it helps to fight ingrown ingrowns and gives a shiny look to the hair.
I love dry hair shampoos with different powders. I constantly experiment with the composition and it is ideal for herbal shampoo in combination with other powders.
I have used this powder both in solid shampoo, along with amla powder, and in anti-fade hair mask. I am pleased with its effects on my hair.
After giving birth my hair was falling out a lot and I started using this powder as an infusion! After a few uses the results haven't stopped! I highly recommend!
I use this powder in my hair mask . It has beneficial effects on scalp and hair from the first uses !
I use the hair care powders as a mask or shampoo, honestly I am very satisfied.
I use this ayurvedic powder in hair masks and oils. Ever since I've been using it, my hair is stronger, shinier and doesn't fall out as much. I will continue to use it
Bhringaraj is the organic aid against hair loss and premature ingrowing. I have been facing the problem of hair fall since a while. I will take treatment on this ayurvedic powder for long term. I also benefit from prevention against baldness. I happily prepare hair oil with sesame oil and bhringaraj, and coconut oil which is paste hair mask.
A powder that leaves hair soft and moisturized ! I have been using it for 4 years in the preparation of my hair mask against hair loss! I am very satisfied with the value for money
This powder is my favorite of all Ayurvedic powders, I have tested it in many recipes and all have pleased me, it is in any solid or liquid shampoo.
I learned about this powder from various youtube channels. I made an oily macerate and was pleasantly surprised to see how this oil does the hair. I fell in love and now use the oil at least once a week
Super! It is prized for its regenerating, repairing, soothing, anti-inflammatory and fortifying properties, finding its place in applications and treatments for a wide spectrum of skin or hair problems. I recommend!
It has a good effect on hair growth, the hair becomes healthier, shinier, it can be used for any type of hair.
It is perfect as a dry shampoo and as an ingredient for solid shampoo. It is finely ground, no big chunks, good quality. I love using it 😊
It's perfect for dry shampoo, mixed with Amla and Tulsi. More importantly, it's completely natural and even beneficial for the hair.
