In Ayurveda, various oils and formulations are used for different purposes, and the ingredients can vary based on the desired therapeutic effects. Various hair oil making methods are mentioned in ayurveda texts such as Neelibhringadi tailam, mahabhringadi tailam etc. One of such popular and ancient method of making hair oil is called Kshirpaak tailam or oil made by Ksheer pak vidhi.
This practice derived from ancient Ayurvedic texts is called Kshir pak Vidhi for making hair oil. This practice forms the basis for numerous remarkable preparations in Ayurveda. Kshir pak vidhi involves the combination of 'Kshir,' which translates to 'milk,' and 'Pak,' which means 'processed.' Essentially, Kshir Pak refers to medicated milk or milk that has been infused with medicinal herbs and coldpressed oils, as described in ancient Ayurvedic texts to make hair oil with multiple benefits.
- Base Oil: In Ayurvedic oils, a base oil is typically used as the carrier for the herbal extracts and other ingredients. Popular base oils include sesame oil, coconut oil, almond oil, and castor oil.
