5 Hair Oils To Nourish Your Mane With This Summer

With summer in full swing, our hair is prone to frizz and dryness – especially curly or wavy hair, which is why it imperative that you take extra care to keep your locks hydrated in order to withstand maximum humidity levels.

From the Middle East to South Asia, the ritual of oiling one’s hair has been a self-care routine observed by many and passed down for generations and head massages have been purposeful in increasing the circulation in the scalp, which helps stimulate hair follicles and encourages hair growth. Oiling the hair also helps to keep it conditioned and ultra-hydrated. However, where many people like to keep it simple by using coconut oil, amla, or almond oil – there is much research that has gone into elevating and improving your haircare ritual now that we use a plethora of shampoos, dyes and styling products, and your hair oil needs to work in harmony.

It has been noted by many hair care experts that oils such as pure coconut oil don’t necessarily penetrate the hair, but instead solidifies and sits on the surface and may be added to other essential ingredients to create the right consistency for better results. If you have found your hair to be drier even after oiling – it could be because you are applying the oil to dry hair. When using natural oils to massage your hair and scalp, dampen the lengths of your hair to allow for the oils to penetrate the hair better – and remember a little goes a long way!
