A person's long, glossy, and beautiful hair is one of their assets. They receive the best care in maintenance and protection. The hair, or kesha, is a person's crown and measure of their beauty. These days, individuals lead hurried and careless lives, which leaves them short on time, ignorant of correct hair care practices, and vulnerable to a variety of hair disorders. Disorders such as hair fall (khalitya), premature greying of the hair (palitya), dandruff (darunaka), and alopecia (indralupta) are most common in young adults and are responsible for people's worry and feelings of inferiority today (1). Ayurveda offers a great approach to hair care since it prioritizes prevention over disease treatment. Swasthavritta principles like Dincharya, ritucharya, aahara, yoga, pathya-apathya sevana, and rasayan treatment are some of preventive therapies. This article aims to educate readers on the various hair-related issues that might arise from improper hair care practices, how to prevent them, and how to treat them with ayurveda.
