Neeraj’s 8-Month Plan for Hair Fall and Dandruff

Neeraj’s 8-Month Plan for Hair Fall and Dandruff

Traya Journey at a Glance

  • Main concern: Neeraj had hair fall for 4–5 years, along with seasonal heavy dandruff that got worse in winter and made him scratch till flakes collected under his nails.
  • What seemed to be driving it: Ongoing hair fall paired with dandruff-related scalp irritation (itching, buildup) and a need for better internal support through a consistent routine.
  • What he used: Hair Ras and Health Tatva supplements, Scalp Oil mixed with the Dandruff Therapy shot, plus Anti-dandruff Night Lotion and Anti-dandruff Shampoo.
  • Timeline he was coached for: 1–3 months to support internal health and reduce dandruff, 4–6 months to see hair fall reduce, and 7–8 months for visible results.
  • Outcome: More than a “kit,” Neeraj got a personalized hair treatment plan he could actually follow - morning, night, and two or three non-negotiables each week.

“Dava kaise use karna hai? Thoda bataiye?”

That’s how Neeraj began the call - straight to the point, like someone who’s been dealing with the same problem for too long and doesn’t want another complicated answer.

He’d been living with hair fall for “lagbhag chaar se paanch saal,” and like most people, he had tried what was easily available before - an oil called “Extra Hair… ten percent.” But the bigger nuisance wasn’t just hair fall. It was the winter dandruff that returned like clockwork, the kind that made him scratch until it collected in his nails.

He didn’t ask for miracles. When the Traya hair coach asked what he expected, Neeraj’s answer was simple: “Thik ho jaye… regrowth.” Just… better.

When hair fall becomes a long-term background worry

Four to five years is a long time to watch your hair change slowly. Long enough for you to get used to it on some days - and feel suddenly fed up on others.

Neeraj’s scalp pictures had already been uploaded, and the coach used those, along with his history, to set expectations clearly. This wasn’t going to be a one-month “quick fix.” She told him his Traya journey would be about eight months.

And oddly, that honesty can feel like relief - because at least now, the timeline matches what the problem has been doing all along: building up over years.

The root cause he could actually feel: dandruff, itching, and an angry scalp

Neeraj’s dandruff wasn’t just a little flaking. It was seasonal, heavy, and itchy - “thand ke mausam mein” - and the coach confirmed the severity in a very relatable way: when you scratch and it gets stuck under your nails, the scalp is clearly irritated.

In Traya’s dandruff approach, the goal is simple: remove the fungal dandruff and soothe the scalp so it can return to a healthier baseline. Traya’s Anti-dandruff range uses Ketoconazole 2% - a clinically approved antifungal ingredient that helps reduce dandruff and inflammation. While it doesn’t “grow hair” directly, it supports scalp health so hair has a better environment to grow instead of constantly being disturbed by itching and buildup. This matters because dandruff and dry scalp hair loss can become a loop: irritation leads to scratching, and scratching increases breakage and shedding.

    Q: Does dandruff trigger hair loss?

Yes - especially when dandruff leads to itching, inflammation, and repeated scratching. That irritation can weaken the scalp environment and increase hair fall, so controlling dandruff is often a crucial first step.

The moment of vulnerability: “How do I even use all this?”

Neeraj didn’t call to discuss theory. He called because he didn’t want to mess it up.

He kept checking: how many times a week, which product at night, and whether oil is daily. At one point he asked again, just to be sure: “Hafte mein kitna bar?” and later, “Ye oil… per day lagega?”

This is the part most people don’t say out loud: when routines feel confusing, consistency breaks. And without consistency, even good products fail you.

So the coach did what a good guide does - she made it simple, repeatable, and specific.

How the coach turned a kit into a routine Neeraj could follow

Instead of overwhelming him, she broke it into “subah do minute” and “raat ko do minute,” then anchored the rest into weekly habits.

Neeraj’s plan included:

He had two supplements:
Hair Ras and Health Tatva. The coach instructed him to take them after breakfast and after dinner as per the kit dosing. Hair Ras is designed for daily natural nourishment and supports scalp and hair health by balancing pitta and improving blood circulation to hair follicles. Health Tatva supports digestion and absorption - because when digestion is off, nutrient absorption can suffer, and that can show up in hair health too, strengthening the digestion and hair fall connection in a way that feels practical, not preachy.

Then came the dandruff-focused topicals:

The oil routine (twice a week)

Neeraj had a Scalp Oil and a small dandruff shot oil in the kit. He was told to mix the small bottle into the big one, then apply twice a week, keeping it on the scalp for at least 30 minutes before washing. Scalp Oil is built around Ayurvedic shiroabhyanga logic - calming the mind and supporting scalp nourishment - while also helping stimulate hair follicles through improved circulation.

The anti-dandruff night routine (three nights a week)

He was asked to apply the Anti-dandruff Night Lotion three times a week at night, spread gently across the scalp - no rubbing, no massage - then wash it off the next day.

The shampoo routine (two to three times a week)

To complete the cycle, he was told to use the Anti-dandruff Shampoo about three times a week (as discussed on the call) to wash out the lotion and keep dandruff controlled.

And because Neeraj asked about food - “Khane mein kuch aisa…?” - the coach also pointed him to Traya’s in-app diet plan feature: logging meals for seven days to generate a report on nutrition gaps, so his routine supports the inside as much as the outside.

The timeline that kept him from giving up early

The coach laid it out clearly:

In months 1–3, supplements begin working on internal health and dandruff should start reducing.
In months 4–6, he should notice hair fall reducing and scalp health improving.
From months 7–8, visible results can start showing.

That structure mattered because Neeraj wasn’t just looking for products - he was looking for certainty. A reason to keep going even if day-to-day changes felt slow.

Resolution: a calmer plan, not just a hopeful purchase

By the end of the call, Neeraj sounded lighter. He repeated the routine back correctly: the night lotion three times a week at night, the oils mixed and applied twice a week before hair wash. When asked if it was clear, he said: “Clear ho gaya.”

And that’s the real shift. Not a dramatic “before-after” moment yet - but the start of a routine he can stick to, with follow-ups every 10–12 days to track progress.

Because for someone who has been dealing with hair fall for years, the first win is not regrowth. It’s finally feeling like you’re not guessing anymore.
