Mistake #3: Not Massaging the Scalp

One of the key benefits of hair oiling is the stimulation of blood circulation through scalp massage. Many people apply oil without taking the time to massage it in, missing out on this crucial step. Massaging not only helps distribute the oil evenly but also promotes relaxation and increases blood flow to the scalp, encouraging hair growth. Skipping this step can result in uneven application and reduced effectiveness of the oil. To maximize the benefits, spend at least five to ten minutes massaging your scalp in gentle, circular motions, allowing the oil to penetrate deeply and nourish the hair follicles.
