Chai ka pani plant tea water without milk or sugar has gone viral as a desi hair home remedy, because of the caffeine, tannins, and anti-oxidants that stimulate and strengthen hair follicles.
Why Chai Ka Pani Works
Tea contains caffeine, which can stimulate the scalp through enhanced blood circulation, waking up dormant hair follicles for hair growth while simultaneously blocking DHT, a hormone related to hair loss. While the anti-oxidants and tannins also minimize inflammation and oxidative stress at the scalp to repair roots, preventing breakage or over shedding. The vitamins and minerals in tea, like vitamin E and iron, actually nourish the scalp, while tannins will add shine and help make the strands resilient.
