Our scalp contains sebaceous glands & they produce natural oils. People with oily scalp or fine hair usually have as much oil as is needed by the hair strands. So they usually don’t need to put oil into their hair root. But those with very dry scalp or coarse hair can be benefitted by applying oil to the scalp. Question is when & how should they apply it?Don’t need to put hair oil for a prolong period of time since the most important part is proper distribution of the oil. For that they need to massage their scalp with hot oil for 5 to 10minutes. Then they can comb their hair which help in distributing the oil from root to the tip & also increase circulation. Then they can shampoo their hair after 30minutes or so. Now you might ask shouldn’t the people with fine hair put any amount of oil on their hair? Of course they should but once in a while & mostly on the shaft only for moisturising the hair & make it more manageable. They don’t need to put the burden of greasy hair on their already oil soaked scalp.Which oils are best for hair? > Coconut Oil- the best of the lot undoubtedly because its rich in fatty acids. > Argan Oil- rich in antioxidants & Vitamin E. > Jojoba Oil- rich in essential elements like Zinc & Copper.
