Is north toilet always bad?
No. Vastu is a traditional planning system, not a prediction of harm. Assess the whole home and focus on practical comfort first.

Yes. Start with cleanliness, ventilation, light, layout and safe furniture placement. Structural work is not the first step.
Which colour should I use?
Choose white, pale blue or mint accents.
Should I use a mirror as a remedy?
North/east wall mirror, never opposite the WC.
Do plants help?
Use one compact moisture-tolerant plant near a window, not artificial clutter.
