When Chandan first spoke with Anshuman, Traya’s hair coach, he sounded calm but tired of dealing with the same issue over and over again. “Hair fall ho raha hai do–teen saal se,” he said simply. “Dandruff bhi heavy hai, nails se scratch karo to chipak ke nikalta hai.”

It wasn’t a new problem — just one that had slowly worsened over time. His hair had started thinning around the crown and front, and now, even under normal light, his scalp was becoming visible. He had tried over-the-counter oils and briefly experimented with Minoxidil for a week, but he never continued because he didn’t see results soon enough.

This time, though, he wanted something structured and guided. That’s where Traya stepped in — combining scalp treatment, internal support, and medical evaluation to design a plan that worked with his body instead of against it.

The Root Cause: Sticky Dandruff, Inflammation & Lifestyle Imbalance

Through the initial assessment, Anshuman discovered that Chandan’s case wasn’t just “hair fall.” It was a combination of:

  • Chronic sticky dandruff — thick, adherent flakes clogging follicles and restricting growth.
  • Nutritional weakness — he admitted, “Diet thoda weak hai.”
  • Sedentary lifestyle — “Exercise last month se start kiya,” he said, showing how irregular physical activity had become.
  • Migraine episodes — recurring for a year, often triggered by stress and inconsistent sleep.

These four factors together created a perfect environment for hair weakening — inflammation, poor scalp hygiene, limited blood circulation, and nutritional deficiency.

Doctor Manish, the consulting physician on call, explained it clearly:

“Ye chronic dandruff scalp ko chipkane lagta hai, follicles band kar deta hai. Pehle isko normal karna jaruri hai, tabhi regrowth possible hai.”

Medical Caution: Migraine and Hair Treatment

An important point emerged — Chandan had been taking Cilnidipine 5 mg, a migraine management tablet, for the last six months. Since some migraine medicines can cause mild vasodilation effects, the doctor wanted to ensure there would be no conflict with Minoxidil, a topical vasodilator used for hair regrowth.

Instead of rushing, Dr. Manish recommended a two-phase approach:

  1. Phase 1: Focus on scalp detox, dandruff control, and internal strength for the first month.
  2. Phase 2: Once dandruff is under control and migraine stable, introduce Minoxidil serum for regrowth.

It was a cautious yet personalized decision — one that balanced both Chandan’s scalp condition and his medical safety.

Phase 1: Detox & Dandruff Control (First Month)

Anshuman carefully explained how to use every product from the Traya kit:

  • Night Lotion (Anti-Dandruff Solution)
    • Apply three times a week, at night before bed.
    • Spread evenly on the scalp (no massage).
    • Leave overnight and rinse next morning with shampoo.
    • Traya Anti-Dandruff Shampoo
    • Use right after the lotion, three times weekly, to cleanse the scalp deeply.
    • Helps remove sticky flakes and control yeast buildup.
    • Scalp Oil (Post-Dandruff Phase)
    • Mix the small Growth Oil bottle into the large Scalp Oil bottle.
    • Use only after two weeks (to let the scalp breathe first).
    • Apply twice weekly, 30 minutes before shampoo.

    Dr. Manish emphasized consistency:

    “Ek mahine tak lotion aur shampoo se hi scalp ko normal karna hai. Oil abhi mat lagaiye, use two hafte baad start karenge.”

    This phase aimed to calm inflammation, control dandruff, and prepare the scalp for future regrowth treatments.

    Phase 2: Internal Nourishment and Regrowth Preparation

    To strengthen Chandan’s roots from within, Anshuman added Traya’s Ayurvedic-nutritional supplements:

    • Hair Rush Tablets: 2 after breakfast + 2 after dinner. → Support keratin structure and reduce hair fall.
    • Health Tatva Tablets: 1 after breakfast + 1 after dinner. → Detoxify the system and improve nutrient absorption.

    Chandan was already taking A-to-Z multivitamins, so Anshuman advised keeping a 5-minute gap between Traya supplements and other tablets.

    “Sir, Traya ke tablets herbal hain, safe hain. Bas khali pet nahi lena hai,” he reminded.

    This internal focus ensured that even before Minoxidil was introduced, the body’s foundation for healthy hair was being rebuilt.

    Phase 3: Regrowth & Maintenance (Post-Month 2)

    Once dandruff reduced — expected within 4–6 weeks — the next hair coach would add Minoxidil serum for regrowth and density.

    Anshuman set realistic expectations:

    “Starting ke tin mahine men hum internal health aur scalp pe kam karenge. Uske baad serum add hoga jisse regrowth aur thickness dono milenge.”

    The doctor also planned a follow-up after a month to reassess migraine stability before moving to this step.

    Lifestyle and Diet Adjustments

    Anshuman reminded Chandan that treatment wasn’t just about products — his daily habits mattered too:

    • Exercise: Simple walking or yoga in the morning to improve blood flow.
    • Diet: Reduce junk and oily food; increase hydration to 2.5–3 liters of water daily.
    • Sleep: Maintain consistent rest to prevent migraine triggers.

    And most importantly, use the Traya App daily:

    • Track product usage via the Log & Earn feature.
    • Earn redeemable coins for consistency.
    • Access the community group for support and queries.

    The Emotional Impact: Hope After Uncertainty

    For someone who’d silently dealt with thinning hair and headaches for over two years, this wasn’t just about appearance — it was about regaining control.

    Chandan had asked, “How many times continue karna hai?” multiple times, trying to ensure he understood the plan perfectly. It reflected both curiosity and anxiety — a sign of someone who wanted to do it right this time.

    The calm reassurance from both Anshuman and Dr. Manish — their patience, their structure — gave him that clarity.

    When the call ended, he said softly,

    “Samajh gaya sir. Start kar raha hun.”

    It wasn’t just the start of his treatment — it was the start of belief that his scalp could heal, his hair could grow again, and his migraines could coexist with recovery.
