I use Ayurvedic Skin Care products: Kaya Zeema facial wash, Kaya Facial Moisturizer and Kaya Clove Acne mask. I love the facial wash and the mask for my face. I buy them at my local Indian beauty Salon here in GA.

| Your welcome. I have not but I would. Indian women are all about beauty and I believe most of their products are of a natural and/or herbal base. ), Ba @`tapa ,,4`b ) b` $(,% )-% % ,) b . |

Good day Princess, I stopped in to the Indian salon that I frequent to have my facials and eyebrows groomed and talked to my beauty consultant there. When I mentioned Amla oil, her face lit up like a firecracker! She stated that it is very good natural product for your hair loaded with vitamin C. It helps your hair to grow and makes it stronger. Good herbal product. I went up the the Indian grocery store and purchased it, even the ladies ringing me up stated that it was very good, just a little smell but good. I purchased Alma Hair Oil by Parachute for $2.39. A larger bottle by another brand was around $3.50. The smaller bottle seems plentiful (150ml). Well, here goes. Any other products you are curious about let me know. I am glad you shared, I look forward to adding this to my regimen. ), Ba @`tapa ,,4`b ) b` $(,% )-% % ,) b .

I finally reached my hair length goal. After years of trying various products, I finally decided to create my own. Two of the ingredients are ayurvedic herbs (bhringraj and amla) which I believe is one of the key reasons why my hair finally grew. $ B ana ``` %, 4b ..4 r -$-,% ), ,%%$ ),` /4 |

Congrats on reaching your goal redd!
Ever use the powdered amla? If so, would you use water to make it into a paste or something else?

I use ayurvedics on my hair:
Amla powder & oil
Shikakai powder, oil, & bars
Cassia powder
Henna powder
Brahmi powder & oil
Neem oil
Meera (a combo) shampoo powder and oils
I use the HairVeda product line exclusively as well......some of these powders and extracts are in the creator's formulations.
I am very close to reaching my goal length using these products. My hair loves them!!
ETA: I mix the powders with water to cleanse hair and scalp with. I pour them on and press gently (no scrubbing!!), leave on a little while, then rinse and condition. this is only after prepooing with oils. Never use the powders to wash without prepooing with oils first.
