Sangat Ji I am a young sikh and have been experiencing some hair loss issues. I was wondering what i could do to take care of my hair. Also do sikhs use hair products to take care of their hair?

Thank you for your replies

Sometimes, because of the timing due to needing to be approved, guest posts get slightly lost. When you get the free membership it works best. 

I'm low on time and no hair expert, but you could start here while waiting on other responses.

Yeah I'm 25 but a lot of my hair falls out and its gotten a lot worse recently. When I brush my hair a lot falls out. But my diet isn't good either, I stopped eating meat about 2 years ago and since then have started eating a lot of crisp, sweets chocolates. I need to cut down on  the fizzy drinks too   but recently started cutting down and started eating fruit and vegetables which I never used to eat before. 

Try using oils like black castor oil.

I wonder if my GP would let me Take a blood test

@puzzled yeah diet plays a part but for the most part i eat clean and about 3-4 eggs a week. sorry i am not a baptised sikh. I have taken a blood test but there doesnt seem to be anything wrong. i will look into black castor oil. thanks

iron stores being low can affect hair

B vitamins low or C vitamins means follicles become loose and inflamed due to oxidative stress and lack of collagen production in scalp

Scalp hygiene is important as the acid mantle for your skin there will deal effectively with moulds, bacteria , try Apple Cider Vinegar treatment to slough off old cells and restore acid mantle

need to stop processed sugars as it strips the body of C and B vitamins and Zinc which affect immune system function

@jkvlondon  Wow that was really helpful.Thanks, I have not heard about apple cider vinegar treatment before.

What conditioners do the sangat use to keep their kesh strong and healthy and how often do you use it? Please note that i am under 18.

Personally, I don't use conditioners because they have a lot of chemicals that aren't really good for your hair. Sure, they make your kes smooth and all but I prefer to use tel. I used to use argan oil but recently I've started to use Navartna oil which is really good. Most people don't like it because its got a distinctive smell of amla but I actually like the smell. Also, it makes your scalp feel cool and its good for dandruff and hair loss. Himani Navratna Oil is a therapeutic oil prepared from Nine Ayurvedic herbs. You can use it for a scalp massage as the natural herbs control hair fall.

Here's the link if you want to buy it (recommended):

You can get it from pretty much any Indian shop anyway.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
