Follow these routine tips at home to prevent hair from damage:

Tackling dandruff with Ayurveda
· Massage your scalp regularly with lukewarm oil at least twice a month. You can choose coconut oil, olive oil or almond oil for your hair.
· Never comb your hair when it is wet. The roots of the hair are weakest when they are wet. Keep the hair wrapped in a towel for a while then let it dry naturally as excess usage of hair dryer damages the texture of hair and makes it weak resulting in hair fall.
· Make a mixture at home of amla, shikakai and dry neem leaves, apply on scalp and leave it on for an hour before washing.
· Eat a healthy diet including green vegetables, dairy products and fruits.
· Drink coconut water to prevent hair fall.
