Question 1

roughly how much is 1 serving? 1 tablespoon?

Accepted Answer

Hi there just to point out this is for hair and external use only and contains 100g. The amount you use depends on length of hair but a little can go a long way. Any further queries please get back in touch.

Question 2

I have shoulder length fine hair that's mostly white.  I definitely do not want any yellowish or dark staining.  Please can you give advice?

Accepted Answer

Hi unfortunately with white hair it is best to use products that are clear or white to avoid any staining.  Although Shikakai is not a dye it may stain white hair a slightly brown colour although this would be temporary and will wash out but shikakai, amla, brahmi, bhringraj will make hair darker over time, it will not necessarily be noticeable at first as it builds up over time with frequent use. Hope that helps.

Question 3

Is anyone experiencing this going darker (and leaving dark stains on skin) if left on hair ? Thank you.

Accepted Answer

No, but I usually use this with amla and henna, which can obviously stain. I always clean around my hairline with a damp cotton pad immediately after I apply my mix and I don't get any staining.

Question 4

Does this helps balding? And can I use it daily?

Accepted Answer

Hi KiteSorry for the long response.Losing hair means something is going on in your body and that could be hormone imbalance or having a gene susceptible to balding. Remember also that stress, medication and diseases can cause hair loss and it is important to deal with that, if it applies, as once the cause is addressed hair loss might be very short-term.Although not a medical expert in any way as we get older our testosterone turns into andgrogen (called Dihydrotestosterone) the hormone responsible for attacking hair follicles and causing hair loss by slowing weakening and killing hair roots.  In answer to your question there is no miracle hair growth without use of drugs and even then that can be a waste of money. The following herbal powders help to reduce hair loss by strengthening hair follicles thereby promoting growth. Once a week should be fine no need to use daily.  Amla promotes hair growthBhringraj promotes new hair growth by rejuvenating scalpBrahmi helps to reduce stress to scalp and is used to stop hair falling and promotes hair growth Neem reduces hair loss and irritation to the scalpShikakai strengthens hair roots and promotesReetha nourishes hair follicles and promotes hair growthMix all powders into a paste, apply to hair, wrap and leave on for at least one hour.Methi or Fenugreek is also one to try but that is not something we sell. Henna is also good for scalp and hair but obviously it colours too so you might want to avoid.Hope that helps.
