Massaging your hair and scalp with beneficial oils is an age-old secret known by Indian women for healthy lustrous hair. Regular oil massages have several proven direct and indirect benefits for the scalp and hair, including increased circulation, deep conditioning, relaxation, decreases stress, and more.

A warm oil massage is said to be more effective than a cold oil massage as heat can increase blood circulation, thereby boosting nutrient supply to hair follicles. Hair also absorbs oil better when it is warmer.
