Minoxidil for hairloss ⁉️
Spending sleepless nights over hairloss, thinning And considering Minoxidil as a hairloss solution?? Here’s some food for thought 👇

Why pay for a Vasodilator ( Minoxidil) when Yoga is free? 🧘‍♀️Minoxidil works by increasing blood flow to your hair follicles. It also comes with series of side effects that are mostly swept under the carpet.

Yoga poses like Downward Dog, Shoulder Stands, Sirsasana (my favourite, specially for men with hereditary hairloss ) do the exact same thing—naturally!! By getting your head below your heart, you’re literally flooding your scalp with nutrient-rich, oxygenated blood.

Nature’s minoxidil might just be on your yoga mat. Who’s stopping you??

PS: Blood circulation to your scalp is key to good hair health. If you have hereditary hairloss in family, start with sirsana at early age. Always get a yoga expert to guide you on the flow! Do not try it at home by yourself.

Your “herbal” hair-dye might be a chemical wolf in a sheep’s clothing 🐺🌿 Many brands use confusing marketing words to hide behind chemicals. Here are 6 clever ways to spot Fake Herbal Dyes:

1️⃣ The ‘herbal hair dye trap’:
If the dye mentions ‘herbal’ or natural, it has to be henna based. No other plant ingredient has naturally occurring dye that has 100% binding capacity to hair keratin. Note: Lavender, Ginseng, Rosemary, Aloevera, Avacado etc do not have coloured dyes that bind to hair protein. These herbs are used for window dressing. The real ingredient to dye your hair is henna or metallic salts added to the product. Look for G6PD health warning ⚠️

2️⃣The “Fast” Trap:
Real henna takes hours to release dye. If the instructions say “color in 15–30 minutes,” it’s packed with chemicals like PPD, 2-nitro or metallic salts.

3️⃣ Vivid Colors:
Nature doesn’t do “Jet Black”, “Burgundy” “Red” in one step. Pure herbs only produce orange (Henna) or blue (Indigo). Anyone selling these colours as 1-step colour, have added chemicals & fillers.

4️⃣ The Developer:
If you have to mix a powder with a liquid “activator” or cream, it’s a chemical oxidation process, not a plant-based one.

5️⃣ The Smell Test:
Real herbs smell like hay or cut grass. If you catch a whiff of ammonia or a heavy “perfume” masking a chemical scent, just put it back.

6️⃣ The Ingredient List:
Read labels. Look for Paraphenylenediamine (PPD), Resorcinol, MEA, 2-Nitro, Metallic salts ( Lead acetate, Bismuth, Silver nitrate, Copper sulphate etc), Hydrogen Peroxide or Ammonia. True herbal dyes should only list botanical names like Lawsonia Inermis or Indigofera tinctoria.

Don’t let “greenwashing” ruin your hair health✌️

No fear-mongering here, just facts!! Using chemical hair dyes every 5-6 weeks to cover greys is not advisable ⁉️☢️ Period..

☢️Studies show some percentage of aromatic amines present in oxidative hair dyes can pe*****te the scalp or soak through hair follicles and enter the bloodstream. These are carcinogens like PPD (phenylenediamines), toluene and aminophenols along with phthalates. I haven’t even started with other harsh chemicals like Ammonia, Mono EthanolAmine( MEA), Resorcinol, Peroxide that completely ruin your hair externally.

☢️It was found that within 30 minutes of application, metabolites of PPD can be detected in the blood and later in urine.

☢️Consistent exposure of these chemicals, month after month can create havoc both for your hair externally and your health internally. Many cancer research studies show co-relation to increased use of hair dyes and breast cancer ‼️ Researchers emphasized the study shows an association rather than direct causation. But the risk is not worth it at all 🫣

Here’s Part 3: Noor Henna Hair Application Results (The Orange phase) 😱. The deep conditioning, insane shine and texture improvement are just the beginning of this hair treatment. The real transformation happens when henna stains those whites to a vibrant orange. Do Not Panic!!! This is exactly what we want and what we aimed for👍👍

It important that henna stains all white hair to orange and only then we can tone it down to brown. If henna doesn’t stain hair, using a toner or indigo is worthless. So orange hair is perfect 👌🧡🌿 We're now ready for the next step!
