Hello again beautiful ladies and gentlemen!

Ready for some physical self care day 2?
Well if yes then we have got you covered!

Today people I challenge you to oil your hair! (And if you want body as well)

Weird but just work with me ok...

Now oiling your hair (and body) won't only make your hair (and body) better but it will also help you relax your mind and body.

So it really doesn't matter if you're a girl or a guy or if u have long or short hair, just do this cuz u deserve some me time.

I'll be listing down some oils along with their significance so you can chose your fav oil!

Here we go,

Coconut Oil:
It is one of the most versatile oils in existence, and is also great for the skin. It contains large amounts of fatty acids which allow it to penetrate hair deeply without evaporating. Coconut oil is rich in carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals that are essential for good hair health.

Ideal for: All hair types, but particularly those with dry, damaged or dull hair.

Argan Oil:
Argan oil, also known as Moroccan oil, is derived from nuts produced from argan trees. Rich in fatty acids, antioxidants and Vitamin E, argan oil not only makes your hair look wonderful, but also has many protective qualities. It is sometimes referred to as “liquid gold” due to its rich golden color. 

Ideal for: Dry, brittle, frizzy or coarse hair that is frequently styled and exposed to heat. Also ideal for people with hair that tends to get greasy.

Jojoba Oil:
Jojoba oil, pronounced ho-ho-ba, is a product of the jojoba plant. Jojoba oil is ideal for use in the hair, since it shares many characteristics with sebum, the oil our scalps naturally produce. It won’t interfere with the scalp’s natural balance. Since it deeply penetrates the hair shaft and follicle, working from the inside out, jojoba oil is a great moisturizer. Jojoba oil also has antibacterial qualities. 

Ideal for: Dry, damaged or dull hair and those with dandruff and dry scalp issues.

Olive Oil:
Olive oil is another extremely versatile oil, derived from pressing olives. It has protective and moisturizing properties. Since it coats the hair shaft and shields keratin, olive oil has protective qualities. It also has exfoliating and dandruff-fighting properties when combined with lemon juice. When used regularly, olive oil can replace the need to use conditioner and other hair-smoothing products.

Ideal for: Damaged, dull, dry or frizzy hair, as well as hair that is dandruff-prone.

Lavender Oil:
Lavender oil is an essential oil derived from lavender flowers. Studies have shown the topical use of lavender oil promotes hair growth. It increases the number of hair follicles on the head, resulting in fuller and thicker hair. It also has antimicrobial and antiseptic qualities, which make it ideal for use by people with dandruff. When used to massage the scalp and mixed with a carrier oil, it improves circulation, stimulates hair growth and can even prevent hair loss.

Ideal for: All hair types, especially those who tend to have oily hair in the front and back and dry scalp in other areas.

These are some of the many oils that can be used for hair and body. I personally use mustard and olive oil but it's upto you to chose yours.

Well bye then people who are enough just the way they are!
