Massage
Gently massage your scalp with lukewarm olive oil for ten to fifteen minutes. Now you can take a piece of cotton cloth and immerse it in warm water for some time. Squeeze it tightly afterwards to take out the surplus water. Drape the cloth around your hair like a turban so that your entire head is covered totally. This is to give heat to your hair as it increases the proper flow of oil all over the scalp. The best possible time to do this is just before you go to sleep at night.
Cleansing
Try to wash your hair the next morning for best results. If you have an emergency, go for the wash at least two to three hours after the oil massage. Shampoo your hair thoroughly, washing the hair as much as possible. Do not rub your scalp too hard with the shampoo. Rinse it properly with tepid water, do not use too hot or too cold as that will ruin your silken strands.
Conditioning
Once the shampooing is done, let the additional water fall. Now it is time for you to condition your hair. Your conditioner should be appropriate for the type of hair you have. So, better watch for the directions written behind the bottle or pack. Take a teeny amount of conditioner and rub on your hair. Split your hair in different segments for an equal application. The conditioner has to be applied on the ends of the hair and never on the scalp. Wait for a few minutes before washing your hair.
Mask it
You do not have to mask your hair very frequently. You can do it once in two weeks if you want to. This process is to give proper nourishment to your hair. You can have a number of different types of masks at home like:
- Beat two eggs and blend in six tbsps of coconut oil in it. Beat it up properly till it becomes uniform. Smear it in your scalp and gently rub it with your fingers. Cover your head with a shower cap and leave it for at least half an hour and then rinse it off with a mild shampoo.
- Take two tbsp of honey and mix it in half a cup of mayonnaise with the help of a blender. Apply generously to your scalp and clean it up with a gentle shampoo after half an hour.
