During my teenage years,the appearance of a few grey strands in my mane caused much panic. I turned to Neelibhringadi oil as a last resort. And it worked wonders for me.
Not only did the errant grey strands beat a retreat,but I also rapidly grew 'kaalay,ghanay aur lambay baal.' My 'khoobsoorat baal' flourished with only 'thodisi dekh bhaal' – thanks to this magic potion.
Years later, I turned to it again, when post-partum alopecia (hairfall following child-birth) raised it's ugly head ,on my head ! It restored my tresses to their former 'crowning glory'.
This oil, containing a variety of 'jadi booti'is an Ayurvedic concoction from Kerala. It arrests hair fall, stops premature greying and gets rid of dandruff. A regular massage into the scalp will stimulate luxurious hair growth.A vigorous massage with this oil is also an excellent placebo treatment for a migranous headache.
The flip side is the peculiar odour,which is quite strong.
Also,being very sticky,it may need 2 or even 3 shampoo applications to get washed off completely.
It is easily available at all Ayurvedic pharmacies. However,the brand from the house of Arya Vaidya Sala, Kottakal is preferred by this reviewer.
