Steps for doing Hair Spa at home
# Oil MassagingThe first step involved in hair spa is massaging. Choose oil that suits your hair. If your hair is normal you can choose coconut oil, almond oil or olive oil. But if your hair is dry or oily you can try combination of oils. For dry hair you can use coconut oil, olive oil and almond oil as base oil and sesame oil and castor oil can be used as the secondary oil. You can mix the quantity of oil as per the level of dryness. And finally for the oily hair use almond oil which are light, amla oil and light hair oils. These are easy available in shops.
How to do oil massaging: Heat the oil in a small bowl. Massage the entire hair root to tips for 10-15 minutes. This increases the blood circulation and actives the little cells and nerve ends. The first step is over and you can proceed to the second step.
# Hair Steaming
Steaming can be done in two ways. You can buy a steamer which is designed specially for hair steaming. You have to just create steam in it and steam your hair well for 10-12 minutes from root to tip. Be sure you cover all the oiled hair and scalp. This is very soothing and also increases the blood circulation in the scalp.
Traditional way to steam the hair:This method is very easy and inexpensive. Boil some water. Dip a towel in it and squeeze it tightly. Drain it well and wrap it around hair. Let it be for 10-15 minutes. You can repeat if you feel the heat level is decreased. This helps in deep penetration of oil.
# Hair WashingNow that you have oiled and steamed your hair you have to clean it. You can either clean it soon after or you can wait over night. And if you are doing it soon after try to use luke warm water. Always know the right shampoo type for you. You can either use the natural ways to cleanse your hair or you can use shampoo.
