We all have witnessed intense hair problems at some point of our lives. But it really starts to glare in our faces post 50 – when aging shows up and slowly attempts to smother our vitality.
Thinning of hair, visible scalp, lifeless looking strands, dryness and skin irritation... are only a few troubles among many, caused by an aging body. And we don’t want you to feel like there is no way out!
Here's a quick list to counter these issues and save the day.
This tip seems to be gaining popularity of late (or so we hope!), but we still think it’s worth a mention if it’s going to help you. On your next grocery store visit, do read what your hair-care bottles have to say! If you spot any of those words, put them back.
Why are Parabens harmful, you ask? Well, they deposit on your scalp and mane due to which your hair ends up looking limp, gross and unhealthy. Especially when aging arrives, you cannot afford to let these chemicals do more harm than good.
And sulfates? They are cleansing agents... Also found in detergents used to beat the dirt out of clothes and everything rough, unlike your hair, that require care and nourishment.
2. The homemade hair mask with Avocado, Honey, Olive Oil, Coconut Milk
This one is for over-all cleansing as well as conditioning of your hair to retain health and hydrate the dry ends. Just making this hair mask is so much fun if you do it right.
Take half an avocado and scoop it into a blender, along with about a tablespoon of honey, extra virgin olive oil and creamy coconut milk to suit the consistency you prefer.
Blend the ingredients and feed your hair this yummy smoothie by applying it all over the head. Don’t leave the dry areas like split-ends (if there) unattended. Wait an hour and wash to see your hair happy again!
And if this tip doesn’t seem doable, try this.
This is an equally healthy, VEGAN alternative that will give you a smooth shine and de-tangle your wild strands.
Take a cup of water in a boiling pot. Mix one tablespoon flaxseeds and fenugreek seeds in it. Place it on the stove and let it heat till you achieve a gel-like consistency (check it with a spoon).
Apply on dry hair strands as needed but also make sure to massage your scalp thoroughly. Wait for 30 minutes to an hour before rinsing.
Along with nourishment, the gel is known to caress and repair the roots of your hair to give it the strength it needs to fight aging effects and everyday bustle!
4. Diet plays a huge role, so be on a lookout for what your body consumes
Yes, we’ve only been talking about what you put on your head and hair. But addressing the issue of a bad diet also seems to be significant, especially with an aging process that won’t stop for anybody.
Eating your proteins, irons and vitamins is crucial to hair cell growth. Feed your scalp the right nutrients and you may notice many of these aging effects slow down.
Some common foods that you should load your refrigerator with are spinach, lime, red pepper, broccoli, kiwi, guava, strawberries. Fox nuts, almonds, walnuts are also great for your hair!
Speaking of what should go into your body, we’d also like to talk a bit about what your pores should eat and drink for stunning hair... Which brings us to our next tip.
Oils don't just moisturize and condition your dry hair, but also protect them from thinning, becoming brittle, damaged, dull and losing a healthy texture.
The best way to pick the right oils for you is looking for something that is completely natural, non-sticky and carries essential oils with effective herbs to optimize the results.
Ayurveda – the age-old Indian science of wellness – is one approach that we’ve known to work like a charm when it comes to naturally cooked hair oils and potions.
Ever heard of the empowering impact that Amla – the mother herb – can have on your hair? Or how Bhringraj – the king of hair – can boost growth and revitalize a dead-looking mane? If the answer’s no, here’s where you can start to go deeper into haircare and adopt this natural way of living...
iYURA follows the long, laborious, authentic Ayurvedic traditions to turn the process of aging hair into a graceful one.
We have all been tempted by the promises of a trillion hair-care products and machines, but how do we decide what works for us?
The whole idea behind iYURA is that women shouldn't have to give in to fake promises or get temporary results. Women should not have to resort to chemical hair-care that further weakens their hair or heat treatments that give you long-term damage in exchange for a few hours of what the world considers to be 'good-looking'. At iYURA, Healthy is what looks good and whatever looks good can have healthy means to it too! Women should not have to depend on machines or harmful chemicals to bring out the best of themselves.
You should be able to simplify your hair-care routine, get long-lasting, truly-deep effects and consistent results. You should also not be forced to choose a product that's not truly natural but only promises to be so.
You should also not end up getting something that may be natural but doesn't work!
That's why The Ayurveda Experience, one of the largest Ayurveda-focused websites in the US, decided to bring to you 100% natural, 100% safe Ayurvedic hair oils from iYURA that are what they say they are, and actually give powerful results!
Just 1 bottle of iYURA's oil can replace those conditioners, masks, multiple spa sessions and chemical treatments!
iYURA products come in amber glass bottles to protect the oil from direct light. But that's not all, just the packaging in which our products are sent is an amazing experience in itself!

The Ayurveda Experience, one of the largest Ayurveda-focused platforms in the US, brought together a team of Ayurveda Experts, Ph.D. scholars, research scientists, and legal experts to provide the highest quality Ayurvedic products to a modern western audience to solve their problems today, naturally and effectively.
In the US, there are either no high-quality products available, or those products do not comply with US-specific regulations and needs, or the products are only Ayurveda-inspired and not truly Ayurvedic...
Just a pinch of turmeric doesn't make something Ayurvedic - Ayurveda is a whole science that considers the quality of herbs, the way they're prepared for cooking, the temperature at which the oils must be cooked, the best methodology and procedures for cooking the oil and more...
This science has existed for years, but never before was it brought forward in the way iYURA does today.
One of the biggest mistakes that middle-aged women make, is resorting to temporary, chemical or heat based treatments that further damage the hair, weakening it and adversely affecting its-long term health with every use.
The best solution is NOT to find another 'temporary make-do', but to make your natural hair look and feel and be SO GOOD that you don't need or want to expose it to any damage anymore - and flaunt an enviable look!
iYURA products do just that - they provide a long-term, healthy solution to problems like:
In early 2014, The Ayurveda Experience forayed into the space of Ayurveda especially formulated for the US through a very unique brand: iYURA.
iYURA brought the beauty of ancient culture and tradition along with the scientific principles that the science of Ayurveda was based upon in a unique way.
iYURA products stand out in a crowd of skincare products and brands not only due to the way they look, but also because of the way they make their users look! The strongest 'USP' of iYURA products is that they work!
Thousands of women across the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand are totally loving using iYURA!
"BEST HAIR EXPERIENCE EVER - My hair has always been very greasy, which makes it thin. Normally, I need to wash it daily and sometimes twice a day, because it does not make it clean at night. When I applied this miracle, I massaged my scalp with a little bit of it and put some on the ends. Next day, my hair was so shiny, not greasy at all with incredible volume... I could not believe it. As the day was going, my hair was still clean and happy. Then, next day was THE SAME, I did not have to wash it. This miracle oil is balancing the PH which will make my hair stronger and beautiful!" - Christie P about Ambhring
"My New Favorite Hair Oil
I live in the desert where the dry wind blows nearly all the time. If I want to keep my hair long at 57 years old, I must constantly nourish it. I use a number of hair oils and I am always looking for the best one. My search is over! I love love love Ambhring Age Embrace Revitalizer and Hair Oil! I massage it into my scalp then slowly caress it down through my tresses. I add a little more at the ends where it is desperately needed. After leaving it on all night, it is easy to wash out in the morning - so light for being so nourishing. I am glad I purchased the two pack. I will be back for more when these bottles are gone!"
- Karen M about Ambhring Age Embrace Revitalizer
So Impressed
"I am loving this oil... It isn’t hard to wash out at all which surprised me. I was afraid I’d have to shampoo so much that I’d lose all the benefits of the oil treatment but that is not the case. My hair loss is slowing down so I’m hopeful it can be reversed.... As a bonus, this oil smells great too, not overpowering which is great, as some smells trigger an allergic reaction. Even my husband loves the scent. I don’t think I will ever be without this.
- Red B. for Rukshadi Dry Scalp and Hair Nectar
"Turn back the clock! - I am on medication and have been for 8 years. One of the side affects is hair loss, so I am always fighting to counteract this. I think I have found the best product, my hair is thick and healthy looking! I notice less hair fall and less hair in the shower!!I use the oil 10-20 minutes before I wash my hair, and if I have no appointments the next day, I will put it on overnight and wash it out in the morning!Thank you so much! I am 64 years old in January, but you would never know by my beautiful hair!"
- Kate M for Ambhring Age Embrace Revitalizer
"I recently also purchased the hair oil and have been amazed at how it has helped my hair become soft, shiny and healthy after damage done bleaching it and how this has done more for me than any professional product by far. Love and will reorder everything."
- Shea M. for Rukshadi Dry Scalp and Hair Nectar
"Best Hair Treatment
My hair has always been thin and very fine. I started using the Ambhring oil and it has made a big difference. My hair feels and looks so much more healthy. I use it 30 minutes before I wash my hair and it cannot believe the difference."
