Amla: The Superfood

Amla, the Indian gooseberry, is considered a superfood in Ayurveda. Several ayurvedic compositions for hair and scalp health, such as hair tonics, shampoos, and conditioners, contain amla for its powerful antioxidant properties. Amla strengthens the immune system and helps improve your overall health and wellness.

Amla Oil 

Amla oil is prepared from amla fruit or its powder by combining it with virgin coconut oil, sesame oil, or olive oil. It is safe to use as it has no side effects. It is the best natural remedy for hair loss, dry and brittle hair, dandruff, and itchy scalp. Several modern hair care brands encourage the use of amla oil for hair growth.

Let us learn more about amla oil, its nutrients, and its benefits for hair and scalp health.

How Does Amla Oil Work?

Amla oil is a rich source of vitamins C, A, and E, potassium, magnesium, iron, and calcium. These nutrients and the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties make amla oil an ideal solution for hair and scalp conditions. Here's how amla oil works on your hair:

  • The essential fatty acids in amla oil strengthen the hair follicles, rejuvenate dull and damaged hair, nourish the scalp, and improve hair growth.
  • Nutrients like vitamins C and E increase blood circulation in the scalp, which leads to stronger hair.
  • Its anti-inflammatory and hydrating properties regulate oil production. It hydrates the scalp, reduces scalp irritation, and soothes and nourishes the scalp.
  • A healthy scalp ensures healthy, thick, and lustrous hair.

What Are The Benefits Of Amla Oil?

There isn't extensive research on how amla oil helps healthy hair growth, but its use in Ayurveda for thousands of years and modern hair care products makes it a trustworthy hair and scalp solution.

Let us consider the many amla oil benefits for hair:

  • Amla.

Pollution, dust, and UV rays damage the hair externally. Vital nutrients and anti-oxidants present in amla oil encourage cellular regeneration and improve blood circulation. Massaging amla oil into the scalp provides the scalp with the nourishment required for healthy hair growth. Calcium in the amla oil fights the damage caused due to heat, and the anti-oxidants slow the greying of hair.

  • Amla Oil Fights Off Stubborn Dandruff.

Vitamin C in amla oil clears the scalp of dust, grime, and dandruff. This exfoliation helps in better absorption of nutrients by the scalp. Amla oil also contains antibacterial properties that treat itchy scalps and other conditions. A dandruff-free scalp is a healthy, well-nourished scalp that leads to healthy hair follicles and better hair growth. 

  • Amla Oil Conditions The Hair.

Amla oil is rich in vitamin E, which is a great conditioner. It reduces frizzy hair and split ends and adds lustre and shine to the hair. It hydrates the hair, leaving it soft and silky. Amla oil also acts as a coolant and reduces the pitta or the metabolic process that generates heat in the body. The reduction of the pitta dosh also results in slower greying of the hair.

  • Amla Oil Reduces Hair Thinning.

Amla oil improves scalp health and encourages better hair growth. Vitamins, minerals, polyphenols, and antioxidants present in amla oil improve blood circulation on the scalp. It prevents breakage and thinning of hair.

  • Amla Oil Is Good For Low Porosity Hair.

Low-porosity hair does not absorb water or oil easily. Amla oil is good for low-porosity hair, as it is lightweight and hydrates the hair without weighing it down. 

What Are The Easiest Ways To Use Amla Oil For Hair Growth?

If you wonder how to use amla oil for hair growth, here's a solution. Regularly massaging the scalp with amla oil is one of the easiest ways to thick hair and a healthy scalp. 

The topical application of amla oil cleanses the scalp, improves blood circulation, and encourages hair growth. 

Pre-wash oil massage: Oiling the hair before a hair wash is an ideal way to clean your hair. Apply a spoonful of amla oil to your hair using your fingertips. Massage your scalp in a gentle, circular motion. Leave the oil for half an hour, then wash your hair with a mild shampoo. An oil massage conditions your hair and helps easy detangling after a hair wash.

How To Use Amla Oil For Hair Growth As A Natural Method?

Apart from applying amla oil for hair benefits, you can alternatively use amla powder mixed with natural ingredients, such as curd, egg whites, and coconut oil, to prepare a variety of hair masks or hair packs. 

Hair masks reduce dandruff, strengthen hair, stimulate growth, and give you lustrous, shiny hair. Consuming amla juice as a tonic also strengthens the roots and the hair follicles. It improves the health of the hair and scalp.

  • Amla And Curry Leaf Pack 

De-seed the amla fruit and grind it into a paste. Add a few curry leaves and water and make a fine paste. Apply the paste onto the scalp and cover your hair with a shower cap. Leave it on for half an hour. Wash with a mild shampoo. 

The proteins and vitamins in curry leaves merge with the goodness of amla to repair damaged hair and improve its quality. 

  • Amla Powder And Curd Hair Pack

Mix amla powder and curd to make a paste. Apply this paste to your hair and leave it on for 20-25 minutes. Wash it off with a mild shampoo. 

Amla oil and powder condition the hair, and curd softens the hair. 

Pro-tip:

Regular consumption of amla and amla juice helps in the absorption of antioxidants. It improves your immunity, eliminates toxins, and enhances your hair and scalp health. It also improves your overall health and well-being.

Takeaway

Amla oil is a natural remedy for treating hair fall. When used regularly, it improves the quality and growth of your hair. However, understanding the root cause of hair fall is crucial. It could be due to health conditions, genetics, or environmental factors. Follow a healthy diet for your overall health and wellness. Take the Traya Hair Test for your scalp assessment. Find the reason behind your hair fall and get a customized solution for the same.
