The Sunday head massage is one of the oldest rituals in Indian homes. Here is how to do it well.
Warm the oil
A little warm oil spreads more easily. Part the hair and apply to the scalp section by section.
Massage, slowly
Use your fingertips, not your nails, in small circles for five to ten minutes.
Leave it, then wash
Leave the oil for an hour or overnight, then wash with a mild cleanser, twice if needed.
