By Tru Hair Hair Care 2,946 Every high-end salon has some kind of expensive hot oil massage for hair that they recommend for restoring your hair’s health. However, why spend a fortune on something you could easily do at home and even get better results? Doing DIY hair treatments at home is not only about helping treat a hair issue anymore. It can be your way of expressing self-love, or it can even be a way to kill time. Whatever the reason, doing a hot oil treatment at home has to be done the right way or it can end up being futile, if not dangerous for your hair. How hard can doing a hot oil massage for hair be, right? After all, it is just heating up a random oil and applying it to your hair. Wrong! A hot oil massage has way more than just those two steps. Let’s take a look at what the first step should be.

How to Get a Spa-like Hot Oil Treatment At Home? Step1: Choosing The Right Oil No, you cannot just go to the kitchen and take a random oil and apply it. If you want positive results from the hot oil massage for hair growth, you need to choose an oil that works best with your hair type, hair texture and hair problem. There are many Ayurvedic hair oils. Ayurvedic hair oils like coconut, almond, jojoba, olive, onion, avocado and more have amazing benefits for the hair and can be used for tackling one or multiple hair problems at the same time. Some of these Ayurvedic oils are best if heated at a particular temperature, and some others can lose all their nutrients if heated. For an elevated result, some of these oils can be mixed with other oils or ingredients like curry leaves, hibiscus, and more. Step2: Know What Suits Your Hair Type For hot oil treatment for dry hair, you could pick fatty oils like coconut oil that provides intense moisturisation. However, for thinner hair that may be weighed down by heavy oils, choose one that has less fat. Similarly, if the hair problem that you are trying to tackle is dandruff, choose an oil that has antibacterial and antifungal properties like lavender oil. According to the nutrition the oil offers and what problems it can tackle, you can use one or a combination of oils to help with your specific hair problems. However, it could be a tedious job to search how the large number of Ayurvedic oils work and how each of them can help you. Instead of spending hours researching every Ayurvedic oil, you could take the easy, but smart road out by choosing an oil that has a combination of rare Ayurvedic ingredients and none of the toxins in an over-the-counter product. The Tru Hair Oil is one such hair oil that can target multiple hair issues and give you the nutrients of many ingredients in one go. Made with 13 rare Ayurvedic ingredients, this elixir can provide your hair intense care with no harmful chemicals. Once you decide on the appropriate Ayurvedic hair oil for you, you can move on to the next step. Step3: How To Heat Hair Oil At Home? Heating hair oil at home is not as easy as it sounds. While you can simply pick up a vessel, pour some oil and heat it up on a burner like you would heat leftover food, there may not be much point in that. Heating a hair oil requires an understanding how the specific hair oil of your choice works and at what heating point it loses its nutrients. It is possible to overheat the oil such that its nutrients evaporate. Hence, it is key to know how to heat hair oil at home. If you are heating hair oil at home, the best way is to use the double boiler method. It is the process of providing indirect heat to the oil. Take a vessel and boil water in it.

While the water is boiling place another vessel on top of the one with the water such that the steam from the water heats the new vessel. In the vessel on top, add the appropriate amount of oil you require to cover your scalp. Allow the oil to heat up no more than 65 degrees. The oil shouldn’t smoke up. Step 4: Applying the Hot Oil Easily & Effectively When the oil is warm enough for you to comfortably dip your fingers in it, you can apply it to your scalp. Only the right temperature of the oil can help penetrate deep into the scalp. If it is overheated, you not only risk burning your scalp and damaging the follicles but you also risk not getting any nutrients out of the oil. Since this whole process is a hassle, you can get the world’s first Ayurvedic hair oil heater online from Tru Hair to make this entire process a cakewalk. Get the steps to a hot oil massage right every time with the user-friendly Tru Heater. All you have to do is pour the oil into the heater and switch it on. In under four minutes, the light will turn off indicating that the oil is ready for use. The oil heater will not heat the oil for more than 65 degrees so you don’t have to worry about overheating. After this comes the part where you get to enjoy this treatment.
How To Get An Effective Hot Oil Massage At Home? Once your heated oil is ready for use, you can start prepping your hair for the massage. 1. Comb and section your hair to make it oil-ready. 2. Using your fingers, take a little of the oil and start applying it to each section of the scalp. 3. Make sure you cover the entire scalp with sufficient oil. 4. Once the scalp is covered, you can also oil the rest of your hair including the tip to tackle dryness and damage. 5. Begin massaging your scalp gently with your fingertips. 6. Make sure not to use your nails or be too harsh on the scalp. 7. Keep massaging for at least 15 minutes. 8. After the massage, keep the oil on the scalp for another 15-30 minutes for maximum benefit. Wash it off with a mild shampoo and follow with a conditioner if required. To make this process more interesting and relaxing, you could get your partner/family/friends into it. Instead of doing it on yourself, you could apply the hot oil and massage it on your partner’s scalp and get them to do yours. This way, you now have a very productive yet fun way of spending time with each other.
