applying oil in the head

Hi sree Even I apply oil either on alternate days or little oil daily and take oil bath on sunday. If I keep my hair dry, after sometime I will develop headache and so I will apply little oil and i will prepare at home with some herbs and coconut oil like your mother.

take a handful of bhringaraj leaves, brahmi leaves, tulasi, neem,hibiscus,ponnan ganni, (botanical name is Alternanthera sessilis), fresh amla fruits, curry leaves,henna leaves, add some water and make it a paste add more coconut oil and less gingelly oil to this paste and boil it in a medium flame. After some time the paste forms into a black crispy crusts with clear oil floating on the top. remove from the fire and strain, cool and keep in a bottle. If you want you can add more coconut oil. Apply this oil in the scalp every day or alternative days.

Hi shalome I heard that amla is good for hair besides eyes. Even I prepare hair oil with amla, bhringaraj, brahmi and some other herbs at home only. How did you feel after starting applying this hair oil? Did your hair stopped falling and started growing lusturous and bounsy hairs so that I will give a try for it

vathsala, Thanks lot for your reply, you are welcome, but what i am applying amala hair oil i don't think it will be benefited for me what you mentioned that you're preparing hair oil let me try and please send the detials.

Hi chaitra can you name me non sticky hair oil product as i too want to try one for me. Coconut oil is the best one I think

its Parachute Jasmine Non sticky Coconut oil.. Its good you can try it out..

Sure Sure. Today I am rushing to get one for me

Hi yugasinigaru Really I envy you, for you need not repent for hair falling like me. And need not go in search of any hair oil and no question of dandruff. For me after taking headbath, drying the hair is a problem if case i need to rush to some place in a hurry. Did you ever repent for having bald, my friend? or you are happy with it?

hi vathsala garu, thanks for the response/comment,i am appearing more aged person than the regular with my bald head,i do not have that much amount to take plastic surgery of the hair,all my friends are with hairs,i and other friend are bald heads,what to do ?have a nice day

Dont feel bad about your bald hair. As far as I am concerned ones heart should be good, kind, generous, with noble deeds, good gestures and thoughts which you have all. People likes you and respects you. Then what makes the difference if you have hair on the head or bald

Hello my friend vathsala30 Ji, So nice of you for your quick, immediate and positive favourable comments. Even todaqy I only look forv Sika-kai for washing my hairs ceremoniallyon weekly basis, that is Sunday, habit formed ages together by mother for both of my sisters and me, as it used to be non-school day. We used to sit in sun to get our hairs dried up, as there were no hair dryers in those days. I am very much tghankful to take me those days, which can never be simulate. May God bless You and have a great time.

Yes. In some house holds, people do apply coconut oil in summer or mustard oil in winter before bath as oil massage. It will keep our skin soft and smooth in both the season. Once in a week we used to apply gingelly oil to our hair and body to keep it cool and wait for some time and wash it with sika kai powder. This makes our hair clean and since it is natural we can avoid chemical side effects that occurs through shampoo

Hello MaygodblessuJi Yes. Even now I wash my hair with shikakai powder only and very rarely i use shampoo. I mix green gram, dried flowers with good fragrance, little rice, dried amla fenugreek seeds, dried henna leaves and hibiscus and curry leaves and reeta skin to shikakai pods and make a powder in the flour mill. Weekly once i apply sesame oil to my hairs massage it and wait for 30 minutes and wash it with home made shikakai powder. This leaves my hair soft and silky and hibiscus acts like conditioner.

hi esjosh While massaging your hair, try with luke warm oil, you feel relief and it also helps to get good sleep for the people who will get disturbed sleep. I think your dear sister is expert in giving oil massage. Is she running any beauty salon or just like that she will massage your hair? I will apply a paste of hibiscus, shoe flower and mehendi (lazonia) leaves in my head wait for 30 minutes and wash it with sikakai powder. I do not use shampoo as it helps in greying the hair fast. Mehendi is nothing but henna. it turns the grey hair into dark. But we should not keep in the for long

Wow! I too am tempted to run to your sister for a nourishing hair massaging

Thanks for your helping tips!!!! I will surely try to follow them, the smell of Mehendi Irritates me but I will try to bare as it is helpful. My sister doesn't run any salon but yes she is champ in hair oil massages.

You see if full marks means 100 out of 100 than it is better than distinction. I understand that distinction is less than the full marks.............lol!

Hi deepak Thanks for your compliments and the marks given to me. But I am sad for getting only the full marks and not the distinction I have seen many people keeping their hair dry always thinking that it is a fashion. But later on they will suffer from dandruff and its related skin problems. For me I can not keep my hair dry for a longer period lest i will develop headache. So regularly I will apply little coconut oil with herbal essence which I prepared at home

You are right. If we keep applying oil to our head every day, then it will become too much greasy and oilly. Even I apply oil in the alternate days only and take a head bath once in a week

I think it is better to wash with shampoo after massaging for couple of minutes

Hi cream It is good that you use hair fomula to moisturize your hair. But I use coconut oil to my scalp and massage it every alternate day with my finger tips in circular and anti clockwise movements to improve the blood circulation and prevention of the fall of hairs. Now it is working wonders and only little hair is falling say the size of a peanut. I am happy about it.

Now that is very true I never thought of it that way. I need to do that to my hair then at least once a week to keep my hair healthier looking. I need to look for something for my hair like that. It also could help prevent split ends to. Thank you for the tips.

But if you does not put apply any hair oil atleast once in a week, will it be normal, does it not become rough? So long it is hale and healthy, then it is ok. But we need to give a good nourishing to the scalp. Give a good hair oil massage once in a week. So that the roots will become strong and healthy and prevents the hair from falling and helps to grow

hope u are fine vathsala garu. thanks for ur tips and helpful to me for my headlice. i will try to follow them.

Hi ank It is long time since we meet. How are you? Coconut oil if pure is very good for hair and no need to use any hair oil. For headlice neem oil is good. Just apply in the hair wait for 30 minutes and wash the hair. every alternate day for two days. and repeat this process after one week for the nit to become lice and perish. If tulasi is available in your place, apply a paste of tulasi and black pepper (miriyalu) and wait for 30 minutes and wash. This is what we do

Hi homeshoppers I think you are doing the right thing by applying the oil before taking a bath and even we will do the same thing. Yes creams are really messy and I too do not like to apply them. After washing the hair, I allow them to dry naturally by letting them loose. Even I do not use shampoos, instead i will use either reetha fruit which is a natural degreaser for hair, and shikakai powder to wash the hair.

Hi dilipmiester Just like you, I will also leave the hair dry whenever I wash my hair. What your mom feels is true. Even in my house, elderly people say that once in a week we must do oil massage to the hair and leave it for 30 minutes then wash off the hair with shika kai powder and hibiscus paste. While applying oil to the hair, we will give oil massage to the body also to remove excess heat and keep the skin smooth and free from skin disease. My sons use brylcream and also a hair gel. But me and hubby use coconut oil mixed with home made herbal hair oil.

Hi julia You are doing the right thing by applying warm coconut oil with lime juice. My friend applies eggwhite every week to the root of the hair, wait for 30 minutes and then wash the hair with shikakai powder. her hair is really looks like black serpent and make us envy. So thick, long and black. Since we are pure vegetarians, we do not buy egg. So I prepare my own herbal hair oil and apply it every day and once in a week apply a paste of henna leaves, hibiscus leaves and curry leave,fresh coconut and wait for 30 minutes and wash the hair with shikakai powder.I do not use shampoo as the chemical contents in it spoil the hair over a period of time and since shikakai or reeta fruit are natural products and do not have any side effects, i will use them only. You are so lucky to be blessed with naturally straight hair.

I also do not know if contains chemicals or herbs, but they had been there for lots of years and lots of people are using it. Now a days barbers are getting additional income with the head massage and people are getting relaxation after some stress. Yogirash is another hair oil with herbal contents that relax the head.

I agree with you ajithlal, I have seen in some barbar shops and also in some beauty parlours, that they will offer hair massage service. Navarathna thailam is cooling no doubt but we cant prove that it contains natural herbs and no chemicals.

Hi vijayanths I won't reveal the secret of your grey hair, I promise. So, for that I am going to put one alert message in mylot asking all my responders not to read your response Happy

Hi snugglebunnies Dont you apply litle oil every day to nourish your hair root and prevent from getting dandruff? What happened to your treatment? did you undergo for it. What is meant by SAHM?

Hi daliaj You are right. Application of the oil on hair helps to keep the head cool and also prevent the scalp from drying and forming dandruff. Dandruff causes falling of hair and if not treated in time causes skin disease.

Hi deepa If you do not apply oil daily, then your scalp will become dry and there is a chance of formation of dandruff and that provokes hair falling and also leads to skin disease. Atlease apply a little daily and wash your hair two times a week
