Benefits of Hair Oiling:

  1. Nourishment: Hair oiling nourishes the scalp and hair follicles.
  2. Strength: It improves hair strength and reduces breakage.
  3. Shine: Hair oil adds shine and luster to the hair.
  4. Scalp Health: It reduces dandruff and promotes a healthy scalp.
  5. Moisturization: Oiling conditions and moisturizes the hair.
  6. Hair Growth: Hair oiling can stimulate blood circulation to the scalp and promote hair growth.

How to Choose the Best Hair Oil:

  1. Consider Hair Type: Choose oil based on your hair type. Heavier oils like 10 Herbs, Rice, Rosemary, almond or coconut are suitable for coarse, thick, dry, or unruly hair.

  2. Assess Scalp Condition: For a dry or flaky scalp, opt for oils with moisturizing properties, while lighter, non-greasy oils are better for oily scalps.

  3. Check for Allergies: Conduct a patch test to ensure you are not allergic to the chosen oil.

  4. Weather Consideration: Different weather conditions may require different oils. Heavier oils are suitable for dry or cold weather, while lighter oils work better in hot and humid conditions.

How Frequently to Oil Your Hair:

  • According to Ayurveda, daily hair oiling is recommended as part of a daily routine (dinacharya). However, if daily oiling is not feasible, oiling your hair at least twice a week is recommended.
  • You can leave the oil on overnight for deep conditioning or apply it an hour before washing your hair if you prefer not to leave it overnight.

Consistency in your hair care practices and selecting the right oil for your specific needs are crucial for achieving the best results.
