Do You Want Healthy Hair ?
Hair is considered as a product of bone formation. Hence the same nutrition that is required for bone formation is required for hair growth as well. In fact healthy hair is an indication of healthy bones. The three important minerals essential for bones are calcium, magnesium and zinc. Two tablespoonfuls of raw sesame seeds supplies us about 1200 mg of calcium, enough for a day. One ripe banana supplies 75mg of magnesium and a handful of raw nuts supplies us with 5mg of zinc.As an external application, the scalp can be massaged with Neelibhringadi oil.
Applying shampoo or soap is to be strictly avoided. Two egg whites can be used to wash oily hair. Hot water bath is also to be strictly avoided. While drying hair, always use normal or cool options on the hair dryer. For regular application, use edible coconut oil or sesame oil with brahmi (Indian pennywort) or amla (Indian gooseberry). For dandruff, mix two teaspoons of neem oil with four teaspoons of sesame oil and gently massage the scalp. Let it stay for half an hour and then wash your hair with neem soap. Dandruff will disappear in a couple of days
