Triphaladi Thailam is een klassieke Ayurvedische Moordhataila (hooil) gedocumenteerd in Sahasrayogam, samengesteld met het legendarische Triphala-trio van Amalaki, Haritaki en Bibhitaki als basis. Deze uitzonderlijk uitgebreide formule combineert 27 zorgvuldig geselecteerde kruiden, waaronder Bhringraj (de "Koning van het Haar"), Neeli (Indigo), Ashwagandha en verkoelende planten zoals Lotus en Blauwe Waterlelie, allemaal bereid in pure sesamolie volgens de traditionele Sneha Paka Vidhi-methode.

Wat deze Triphaladi Thailam onderscheidt, is de verbeterde samenstelling. Naast de klassieke Triphala-basis bevat het Neeli (Indigofera tinctoria), traditioneel gewaardeerd voor het ondersteunen van natuurlijke haarkleur, Ashwagandha vanwege de adaptogene en stressverlichtende eigenschappen, en een verzameling verkoelende, Pitta-verzachtende kruiden die het ideaal maken voor mensen met een gevoelige hoofdhuid, overmatige hitte of voortijdig grijs worden.

Deze tridoshische olie helpt de balans van de hoofdhuid te herstellen, ondersteunt gezonde haarwortels en pakt veelvoorkomende problemen aan zoals roos, jeuk en ophoping op de hoofdhuid. De verkoelende maar zuiverende aard maakt het vooral gunstig voor mensen met een teveel aan Pitta in het hoofdgebied. Naast haarwelzijn vermelden traditionele teksten de ondersteunende effecten op de zintuigen en mentale helderheid bij regelmatig gebruik voor Shiro Abhyanga (hoofdmassage).

Voordelen van Triphaladi Thailam

Triphaladi Thailam holds a distinguished position in Ayurvedic hair care as the classical Moordhataila (therapeutic head oil) that combines deep scalp cleansing with profound nourishment. While many hair oils focus solely on conditioning, this comprehensive 27-herb formulation works at multiple levels: clarifying the scalp, strengthening hair roots, supporting natural hair colour, and promoting overall wellness of the head region.

The Foundation: Triphala (The Three Fruits)

At the heart of this formulation lies Triphala, Ayurveda's most celebrated herbal combination:

Amalaki (Emblica officinalis) — Indian Gooseberry is renowned as one of the richest natural sources of Vitamin C and antioxidants. Present both as extract and fresh juice in this formulation, it provides deep nourishment to hair follicles and supports natural hair pigmentation.

Haritaki (Terminalia chebula) — Known as the "King of Medicines" in Ayurveda, Haritaki offers cleansing and detoxifying properties that help clear scalp buildup and impurities.

Bibhitaki (Terminalia bellirica) — Provides astringent properties that help tone the scalp and strengthen hair shafts from the root.

Together, these three fruits create a tridoshic effect, balancing all three doshas and making the oil suitable for virtually all hair and scalp types.

Bhringraj: The King of Hair

Complementing Triphala is Bhringraj (Eclipta alba), called Kesharaja ("King of Hair") in Sanskrit texts. Processed into this oil as fresh juice (swarasa) for maximum potency, Bhringraj is traditionally valued for supporting healthy hair growth, nourishing the scalp and helping maintain natural hair colour.

Neeli (Indigo): Nature's Pigment Protector

This enhanced Triphaladi formulation includes Neeli (Indigofera tinctoria), the legendary Indigo plant. Rich in natural pigments and antioxidants, Neeli is traditionally used to support natural hair colour and protect melanin-producing cells. Its cooling properties also help pacify Pitta dosha, addressing one of the root causes of premature greying in Ayurveda.

Ashwagandha: The Adaptogenic Addition

Unlike basic Triphaladi formulations, this oil includes Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), the renowned adaptogenic herb. This addition supports the body's response to stress, which Ayurveda recognises as a significant contributor to hair concerns. The calming, grounding nature of Ashwagandha complements the cooling herbs beautifully.

Cooling Botanicals for Pitta Balance

The formulation is enriched with an exceptional collection of cooling, Pitta-pacifying herbs:

  • Padma (Nelumbo nucifera) — Sacred Lotus, deeply cooling and calming
  • Utpala (Nymphaea stellata) — Blue Water Lily, renowned for its cooling virya
  • Sariva (Hemidesmus indicus) — Indian Sarsaparilla, a premier blood-purifying and cooling herb
  • Usheer (Vetiveria zizanioides) — Vetiver, with its distinctive cooling and grounding aroma
  • Yashtimadhu (Glycyrrhiza glabra) — Licorice, soothing and nourishing

Traditional Uses

According to Sahasrayogam and related classical texts, Triphaladi Thailam is traditionally valued for:

  • Supporting healthy hair growth and strong roots
  • Helping maintain natural hair colour and delay premature greying
  • Promoting a clear, balanced scalp free from dandruff and buildup
  • Addressing occasional itching, flakiness and scalp sensitivity
  • Supporting the health and function of eyes, ears, nose and throat
  • Promoting mental clarity and calm through Shiro Abhyanga
  • Relieving occasional headache and head tension

  • Anyone seeking a comprehensive, balancing hair oil for regular use
  • People dealing with stress-related hair concerns
  • Those looking for natural support for hair colour maintenance

Hoe Triphaladi Thailam te gebruiken

Massage in cirkelvormige bewegingen met behulp van je vingertoppen, waardoor de olie minstens 30 minuten kan absorberen voordat je afwas met een milde kruidenshampoo. Voor diepere voeding kan de olie 's nachts worden achtergelaten en' s ochtends worden gespoeld.

Understanding Triphala

Triphala is Ayurveda's most celebrated herbal combination, appearing in thousands of classical formulations. The three fruits represent a perfect balance:

  • Haritaki — Associated with Vata and the element of Air; supports movement and cleansing
  • Bibhitaki — Associated with Kapha and the element of Earth; provides structure and strength
  • Amalaki — Associated with Pitta and the element of Fire; supports nourishment and rejuvenation

Together, they create a Tridoshahara (balancing all three doshas) effect.

The Concept of Moordhataila

Classical texts place great emphasis on Moordhataila, the practice of applying oil to the head. According to Ashtanga Hridayam, regular head oiling:

  • Prevents headache
  • Prevents hair fall and premature greying
  • Strengthens the sense organs
  • Promotes sound sleep
  • Brings happiness and clarity of mind

Triphaladi Thailam is specifically designed for this purpose, making it more than a cosmetic hair oil — it is a therapeutic formulation for complete head wellness.

Classical Preparation Method

The traditional preparation follows Sneha Paka Vidhi:

  1. Fresh juices of Bhringraj and Amalaki are extracted
  2. Triphala and other herbs are decocted to create Kashaya
  3. Kalka (paste) is prepared from the 27 powdered herbs
  4. All components are combined with sesame oil
  5. Heated according to traditional protocols until Sneha Siddhi Lakshana (completion signs) appear

The final oil has a characteristic deep amber colour with complex herbal aromatic notes.

Triphaladi Thailam is a classical Ayurvedic Moordhataila (head oil) documented in Sahasrayogam, designed for comprehensive scalp and hair wellness. It is traditionally used for supporting healthy hair growth and strong roots, helping maintain natural hair colour and delay premature greying, promoting a clear and balanced scalp free from dandruff and buildup, nourishing the sense organs of the head (eyes, ears, nose), and supporting mental clarity and calm through regular head massage. This enhanced 27-herb formulation is particularly valued for its cooling, Pitta-pacifying properties.

Unlike basic hair oils that focus only on conditioning, this Triphaladi Thailam is a therapeutic Moordhataila with 27 carefully selected herbs. Key differentiators include the addition of Neeli (Indigo) for natural hair colour support, Ashwagandha for stress-related hair concerns, an exceptional collection of cooling botanicals (Lotus, Blue Water Lily, Vetiver, Sariva), and dual forms of key herbs (both extract and powder) for enhanced efficacy. The classical Sneha Paka Vidhi preparation ensures proper extraction of therapeutic compounds.
This formulation includes Neeli (Indigofera tinctoria), traditionally valued in Ayurveda for supporting natural hair colour. Combined with Bhringraj, Amalaki and the other nourishing herbs, regular use may help support natural pigmentation. However, results vary individually and this is not a hair dye. For intensive greying concerns, this oil works well alongside a holistic approach including diet and lifestyle.


Yes, Triphaladi Thailam can be used daily, particularly if addressing specific scalp concerns. Its balanced, cooling nature makes it suitable for regular use without risk of over-heating the scalp. For general maintenance, 2-3 times weekly is often sufficient. For addressing dandruff, greying or excessive shedding, daily use for 2-3 weeks followed by maintenance frequency is traditional.


Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the cap tightly closed after each use. The oil does not require refrigeration. Properly stored, it maintains quality for the duration indicated on packaging.

Triphaladi Thailam is tridoshic, meaning it balances all three doshas and suits all constitutional types. However, its enhanced cooling botanicals (Lotus, Blue Water Lily, Vetiver, Sariva) give it particular emphasis on Pitta-pacification. This makes it especially beneficial for those with Pitta-related scalp concerns such as excess heat, sensitivity, premature greying, or inflammatory scalp conditions. The cooling yet balancing nature also supports Vata-type dryness and Kapha-type buildup, making it a versatile year-round oil for any dosha.


While Triphaladi Thailam is traditionally considered gentle, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider or Ayurvedic practitioner before using any herbal products during pregnancy or nursing.
