Why an Ancient Dandruff Treatment Works
Shikakai: A pod that’s considered a superior cleanser for lustrous long hair and has been reported to promote hair growth; included in natural remedies for itchy scalp prevention and dandruff treatment. Because of these benefits, this pod was named "Shikakai" which translated as, "fruit for hair".
Reetha Fruit: Indian name Reetha fruit is also called Soapnut, as it contains natural soap. Besides excellent cleansing properties and dandruff treatment, it is known to keep hair and skin soft.
Amla: A wonderful cleansing agent for both the skin and hair. It imparts luster to hair and is an effective dandruff treatment; also helps prevent premature graying. Amla stimulates growth of hair on the scalp, and strengthens the hair roots.
Fenugreek Seeds contain essential oil that contains 40 different valuable compounds. People used to soak fenugreek seeds overnight, and in the morning grind them into fine paste and apply them to the scalp for half hour for scalp treatment and removal of dandruff. The hair was then washed with Soapnut solution. The same paste was applied on the face at night before going to bed and then washed with warm water in the morning. This was known to prevent one from getting pimples, dryness and early appearance of wrinkles. It improved complexion and make one look younger.
Multani Clay (also known as Multani Mitti and Fullers Earth): Multani Clay is great for drawing dead cells and excess oils from the skin. It also stimulates circulation to the skin. It absorbs bacteria, toxins and reduces water loss. The skin is then rejuvenated and becomes smooth, soft and supple.
