If you suffer from dry hair and/or scalp, hair loss, or frizz, a great natural remedy is to oil your scalp. Regularly massaging oil into your hair has proven to improve the health of your hair while also being relaxing. In this article, we will discuss the benefits of oiling your scalp and how frequently you should do so.
Benefits:
1. Rehydrates
Daily exposure to heat and weather causes dryness. It is essential to moisturize starting from the scalp to form a protective layer, keeping your hair smooth and shiny.
2. Strengthens hair
Oiling hair not only strengthens it, but also reduces frizz and prevents breakage.
3. Stimulates growth
Regular oil massages unclog the pores in your scalp and boosts circulation by bringing nutrients to the root, which in turn promotes hair growth.
4. Helps protect against dandruff and infections
The main cause of dandruff and other bacterial scalp infections is clogged pores. Certain oils have anti-bacterial ingredients to keep your scalp protected and unclog pores.
5. Relaxing
Scalp massages can lower stress levels, which improves your overall health. Using an essential aromatherapy oil can provide additional stress-relieving benefits.
How often should you oil your scalp?
Some recommend 2-3 times a week, while some recommend oiling the day before a wash. Oiling a day before a wash decreases your chances of over-oiling, clogging your pores, and causing more problems. Using a natural oil before a wash also protects your hair from being over stripped during the washing process, decreasing dryness.
