Abstract
Hair is the symbol of beauty in the humans both in male and female, every attempt is made to protect this beauty by different ways. But now a day because of busy scheduled lifestyle, also due to rise in pollution etc, there are many health issues arising one among is premature graying of hair, for which our modern population is attracted to hair dyes which are made up of chemicals which may have adverse reactions and negative impact on health. So now the world is looking for products which are natural and devoid of adverse reactions. In Ayurveda this concept is explained as Khalitya, Palitya and Kesharanjana Yogas which are natural, equally effective and devoid of adverse reactions. Hence here an attempt is made to compile few such Kesharanjan Yogas explained in different classical texts which can be easily prepared and used.
