After oiling your hair, massage your scalp using various techniques to promote relaxation, increase blood circulation, and encourage oil absorption. Here's how:
Massage Techniques to Use After Oiling
Consider these techniques when massaging your scalp after applying oil:
- Slithering (S Motion): Use your fingertips to create an "S" motion on your scalp. Move your fingers back and forth like a snake, focusing on the sides of your scalp. This helps to loosen tension and improve blood flow.
- Finger Pads and Palm Massage: Use the pads of your fingers and the upper part of your palm to gently massage the oil all over your scalp. Apply moderate pressure and make circular motions.
- Raindrop Technique: Use your fingertips to lightly tap all over your scalp, mimicking raindrops. This stimulates the scalp and helps the oil penetrate.
By using these techniques after oiling, you can help promote healthier hair growth and a more relaxed scalp.
