Avoid oiling catastrophes with these simple tips!

It’s no secret that your hair needs the right nutrition for stronger roots, shiny strands, and growth. Most of us use high quality products to maintain our hair’s health but we often forget how important oiling is too. A lot of misconception surrounds oiling your hair, people think it weakens the hair, but it actually helps your hair stay vibrant and healthy when used correctly.

There are multiple choices of oil which are considered good for the growth and health of your hair. A product that utilises a mixture of oils will be your best solution to maximise the benefits of oiling your hair. There are important oiling dos and Don’ts that you should follow so you can avoid damaging your hair. Here are some tips you should keep in mind when implementing oiling into your hair care routine.

The Basics of Oiling:

• Apply oil well and not only to your hair but also to your scalp.
• The temperature of the oil should be lukewarm when applying it.
• Whilst you can apply oil to hair before showering, applying oil to clean hair prior is also a viable application to consider.

• Start by massaging the oil on your scalp thoroughly then apply the oil to the roots of your hair.
• Implement oiling to your haircare routine 1-2 times per week.

What not to do when oiling:

• Do not keep oil in your hair for a long period of time, always read the instructions on the packaging of the product you intend to use.
• Do not use any mask or other hair products after applying oil. You should ideally apply oil 2-3 hours before bathing/washing your hair and in that time, it is heavily discouraged that you apply any further products to your hair.
• Do not use excess oil and avoid combing your hair directly after applying oil.

When you use hair oils, you’ll immediately see the transformation of even the most dehydrated strands into soft, manageable hair. We hope the tips we provided help you on your journey to healthy and vibrant hair!
