Before keratin treatments and fancy serums, there was one ritual every desi queen swore by: a slow, nourishing scalp massage with warm oils. It didn’t just grow hair.. it revived it.This ancient deep oiling method stimulates hair growth, repairs damage, strengthens roots, and leaves your scalp glowing with health.
Step 1: The Oil Infusion
In a small bowl, warm:
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tbsp castor oil (for thickness)
- few pinches of fine methi (fenugreek) powder
Warm just enough so it’s cozy on your scalp not hot.
Step 2: Massage Like You Mean It
Section your hair and apply oil using your fingertips, not nails.
Massage in slow, circular motions for 5 to 7 minutes, especially at the crown and the back part of your head.
This boosts blood circulation, nourishes hair follicles, and melts stress away.
For max benefits, flip your head upside down for a minute.
Step 3: Wrap & Rest
Wrap your hair in a warm towel or a soft cloth and let it sit for 1–2 hours or overnight if you can.
This helps the oil penetrate deeper into the scalp and hair shaft.
Step 4: Gentle Wash + Natural Rinse
Shampoo gently with a mild, sulfate-free cleanser.
Optional: Do a final rinse with cool water + 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar for shine and scalp balance.
The Result
Soft, shiny, strong hair that smells divine and grows like it’s on a mission.
Once a week is all it takes and your hair will thank you.
