Massage and stimulate your scalp for hair growth

We resort to expensive hair-spa treatments that cost almost as much as one month’s rent, and use ridiculously-priced shampoos and conditioners to help stimulate and quicken hair growth. African American hair care can be particularly demanding. We gaze at Hollywood’s starlets’ luscious locks and wish we could have that kind of hair overnight.

Well, there are ways to get your dream locks without having to empty your pockets, although it may take some time. Sometimes, not much emphasis has been laid on the concept of massage and scalp stimulation to enhance hair growth. Just as combing, shampooing and conditioning are all an important part of your daily or weekly hair regimen, scalp massages should be incorporated too. Not only are they extremely relaxing and rejuvenating, but can do wonders to stimulate your skin cells and hair follicles to make your hair start growing out faster, thicker, longer and stronger.

Use essential oils to massage

If you don’t enjoy giving yourself a scalp massage, hit your nearest beauty salon or massage parlor and allow them to pamper you! They are completely affordable and don’t take up too much of time out of your busy schedule. Scalp massages work even better when accompanied with a little bit of heated coconut, olive or almond oil. The heated oil is a great stimulator to wake up sleeping hair follicles. The circulatory, and up and down movements of the massage will definitely help stimulate hair follicles and will allow them to grow out faster.

Scalp massages are not a recent development and go way back. Ayurveda recommends scalp massages for stimulation of hair growth. The technique has been used in Ayurveda for over 5000 years, and is being offered at the biggest, most modern and expensive beauty parlors today. An Ayurveda specialist would also recommend that you use natural hair care products.

Scalp massages make you happy

Scalp massages are also known to stimulate the release of serotonin and endorphin, also popularly known as the feel-good hormones. They help stimulate and increase blood flow in the scalp, directing the flow of blood to the hair follicles, which will in turn promote healthy hair growth.

As opposed to harmful, chemical-pumped shampoos and conditioners that make false promises, scalp massages are age-old, simple, affordable, relaxing and extremely effective. Oils like lavender add the benefits of aromatherapy to the scalp massage and help relieve you of life’s daily stress; considering it is a major contributor to hair loss and stunted hair growth.

So book an appointment for an indulgent scalp massage immediately to have your hair looking naturally beautiful!
