Ayurveda : powders or oils which do you prefer?

[drasgrl]

I'm just getting into the Ayurveda thing. So far I just have amla/shikakai oil, gonna order some henna soon. Thinking of trying some powders. Which do you prefer oils or powders and why.

I prefer the powders and its during this challenge that I found out that my hair doesn't like oils. The oils seem to just sit on top of my hair. I use the powders for the wash and I love it. I mix Shikakai, Amla, Aritha and sometimes Brahmi with 2 cups of water and let it sit to cool then strain. Im loving it!!!

I haven't tried any oils other than vatika but I love the powders and the shikakai shampoo bar.
