Bhringraj is also commonly known by names shweta Bhringraj(white) and peet Bhringraj(yellowish).
I haven’t found a better brand (yet) like this that sells bhringraj with such great quality!
It is beneficial to remove dandruff, prevent premature greying and give a natural shine that you can not resist!
Bhringraj is a time-testing herb that I have been vouching for a long time now. Backed by research, massaging scalp with bhringraj at regular intervals can increase blood circulation by activating hair follicles.
This DIY is particularly great for monsoon blues and control frizziness in hair!
