“What Makes This Decoction Different?”
🔥 OUR 3-DAY KERALA KASHAYAM BREWING RITUAL
EXPIAVE Kashayam Hair Decoction is prepared using the traditional Kerala Ayurvedic Kashayam Decoction method, carried out slowly over three days inside a wood-fired copper urli at our own pakashala in God’s Own Country, Kerala.
This is not factory production.
🌿 DAY 1–2: Fresh Herbs, Coconut & Slow Cooking
Only fresh, whole herbs are used.
Before brewing, every herb is:
Hand-washed thoroughly
Cleansed using turmeric-infused water to ensure removal of microbial load and any pesticidal residue
.The fresh herbs are then:
Juiced by hand
Filtered through cloth to obtain pure green herbal extracts
These fresh herbal juices are gently introduced into first-pressed coconut milk, extracted in-house using the cold-process method — not procured from manufacturers or market suppliers.
The mixture is then placed in a copper urli over wood fire and continuously stirred.
⚠️ Important: The coconut milk is never allowed to boil.
It is gently warmed so the fresh herbs cook slowly into the milk, preserving their vitality.
When the coconut milk turns a golden hue, it indicates the correct stage.
At this point:
Virgin coconut oil, also extracted in-house, is added
- Along with additional fresh herb extracts
This slow integration allows herbal actives to bind deeply with the fats — a key principle of Kerala Ayurveda.
🌺 DAY 2–3: Kashayam Reduction with Dry Herbs
By the second day, once gentle boiling begins and a natural froth forms, hand-pounded dried herbal powders are added.
From this stage onward:
The decoction is simmered slowly
Continuously stirred
Reduced naturally — exactly how classical kashayams are brewed
No accelerators.
No overheating.
Only patience.
🪔 DAY 3: The Perfect Kashayam Stage
On the third day, the decoction begins to separate from the kakkan (herbal residue), which slowly settles at the bottom of the urli.
This is the critical finishing stage.
The kashayam must be:
Neither under-cooked
Nor over-cooked
Only when this precise balance is achieved is the decoction considered ready.
✨ Hand-Filtered the Traditional Way
The decoction is then filtered using a muslin cloth held by two people, while a third slowly pours the liquid.
This traditional method ensures:
Absolute purity
Gentle filtration
No machinery
No micro-tearing of the decoction
Preservation of subtle herbal energies
🌿 Why This Matters
Many modern preparations shortcut this process through:
High-heat boiling
Machine filtration
Factory dehydration
EXPIAVE chooses time over speed, ritual over scale, and purity over profit.
This is the way Kerala vaidya families have prepared hair medicines for generations.
That is why your scalp feels the difference.

✨ “Why It Works (Ayurvedic Explanation)”
WHY IT WORKS
WHY IT WORKS
EXPIAVE Kashayam Hair Decoction works because it follows the core principles of Kerala Ayurveda — slow extraction, correct sequencing, and balance of heat, fat, and herbal potency.
Unlike cosmetic hair oils that coat the scalp, this decoction is designed to correct the scalp environment at a deeper level.
Ayurvedic Reasoning Behind Its Effectiveness
• Fire Brewed Kashayam Decoction Method
Herbs are extracted slowly in liquid form, allowing water- and fat-soluble actives to penetrate the scalp more effectively than surface oils.Slow reduction over wood fire allows herbs to release their active essence fully — something fast, factory heating cannot replicate.
• Fresh Herbs, Not Extracts
Whole herbs are brewed and reduced, preserving their natural synergy instead of isolated, weakened compounds.
• Copper Urli Infusion
Copper naturally enhances circulation and supports scalp detoxification, helping herbs act deeper at the follicular level.
• Coconut Milk as the Active Carrier
Added only at the final stage, coconut milk carries plant actives into the scalp while cooling excess heat — a key cause of hair fall and dandruff.
• Multi-Stage Herbal Layering
Fresh herb juices, dry powders, and oils are introduced in stages, allowing each group of actives to activate correctly rather than competing.
• Slow Reduction & Proper Completion
The decoction is stopped at the precise Ayurvedic stage — neither under-cooked nor over-cooked — ensuring maximum potency and safety.
• Water-Based, Not Oil-Heavy
This is a decoction-led formula that penetrates the scalp rather than sitting on the surface.
• Time + Consistency
Hair responds to rhythm, not rush. Regular use restores balance at the root level.
Together, these factors restore scalp balance (dosha equilibrium), improve circulation, strengthen roots, and support healthy, sustained hair growth.
This is why EXPIAVE works gradually, deeply, and long-term — not over
This formulation works by correcting the scalp environment — not by forcing instant results.
