How to use Ayurvedic herbs at home
Ayurveda is the so-called "Science sister" of yoga. It is the traditional medicine of India.
However, it is more than just a science: it takes into account all aspects of life (holistic). For instance, solving a hair problem would imply several lifestyle changes, including nutritional changes, a less stressful life, etc.
Here we are not going to get into detail. What we want is you to be able to take advantage of the ancient knowledge of Ayurveda from the comfort of your home. We know that not everyone can afford the time and money to come to the salon every week. So we have created packages of 100g for you to use 2-4 times at home.
In our salon, now you can find:
PLANT SHAMPOO
This shampoo is perfect for your in any circumstance, but specially if you
suffer of scalp problems (dandruff, itchiness, dermatitis, sensitive skin)
are following the curly girl method, you have curly hair and want a no-poo cleanser
you want to detoxify your hair from silicones and other chemicals, embracing your natural hair
are seeking for a more sustainable and natural way of living :-) and are worried about your health and the health of the planet
How it works?
To prepare it, mix 1 part of powder with 3 parts of warm water (almost boiling).
Mix until it has a yogurt consistency.
Apply on the scalp.
Leave it 10min-1h (if more than 10min, use a plastic cap, to keep the moisture).
Rinse with water.
Use conditioner if needed.
TREATMENT FOR DAMAGED / FRAGILE / FINE HAIR
A mix of herbs that act hugging your hair, making it thicker and stronger.
This treatment is perfect for your in any circumstance, but specially if you:
want a boost of shine
have died or bleach your hair and it is fragile, dry, damaged
have natural curly hair (Afro, curly), which benefits from periodic protective treatments
have fine hair, and you are trying to grow it long
hair tends to breakage
How it works?
To prepare it, mix 1 part of powder with 3 parts of warm water (around 45C, you should be able to stick the finger inside).
Mix until it has a yogurt consistency.
Apply on the middle length and the tips of the hair.
Leave it 20min-2h (see the table below for recommendations) (if more than 10min, use a plastic cap, to keep the moisture).
Rinse with water.
Use conditioner if needed.
HAIR LOSS / HAIR GROWTH TREATMENT
This treatment stops hair fall, balances the scalp, stimulates hair grown, and reinforces and protects the hair.
But it does not have any effect on the areas where the hair has already been lost and the follicle is dead. Therefore, we would recommend you starting as soon as you notice any hair loss, or as a prevention, if there is genetic hair loss in your family. You can come for a consultation and we can tell you if it is a good choice for you.
Duration of the whole treatment?
In order to be effective, it needs to be applied once per week during a minimum of 12 weeks. Miracles don't exist, but consistency does the job!
If the hair fall is severe, we recommend prolonging the treatment 12 weeks more, alternating weeks.
Ideally, this treatment should be taken in alternating weeks for 4-7 months, in order to reinforce hair and scalp during all the phases of hair growth (anagen, catagen, telogen).
