Hair Oiling: An Ancient Ritual Returns

600

Long before Olaplex and keratin treatments, women in India, the Middle East, and North Africa were practicing hair oiling — and their hair has been the envy of the world ever since.

How It Works

Warm oil is massaged into the scalp and worked through the lengths of the hair. The massage stimulates blood flow to follicles. The oil penetrates the hair shaft, reducing protein loss and preventing breakage. It’s both treatment and prevention.

Best Oils by Hair Type

Fine hair: jojoba or grapeseed (lightweight). Thick or curly hair: coconut or castor oil (deeply penetrating). Dry scalp: amla oil (traditional Ayurvedic choice). Leave on for at least 30 minutes, ideally overnight with a silk wrap. Wash out with a gentle shampoo.
