Woolly hair syndrome is most evident in childhood. No treatment for woolly hair is currently available. Physical
& chemical cosmetic measures should be avoided per modern medical science guidelines. Hereditary woolly hair
is autosomal dominant & familial woolly hair is autosomal recessive. It is a group of disorders involving structural defects in the hair shaft. This rare congenital abnormality of the structure of scalp hair is marked by extreme
kinkiness of hair. In Ashtonindita adhyaya, Acharya Charak described Aatiloma & Aloma conditions of hair. A
case study was conducted on an 11-year-old female patient diagnosed with short anagen syndrome woolly hair
syndrome. In this case, Ayurvedic management, i.e. Panchakarma (tikta Kshirbasti) with shaman chikitsa, was
essential in treating this kashtasadhya disease.
