If you're like most people, you love hair and take good care of it. It's also true that your scalp needs to be pampered as well. Do you often find your scalp itching? If the answer is yes, then this blog post is for you!

Many people might think that the skin on their scalp doesn't need much attention. However, if your scalp is dry and itchy, you might have a scalp problem. 

Constantly scratching your head could result in losing hair and damage your hair. Most people are familiar with those few minutes lying on the sink at a salon or barbershop. Unfortunately, people only get a proper scalp massage in a salon or barbershop.

Most people do not realize it is crucial to massage their scalp regularly. You can use a good quality, 100% natural rubber scalp massager at home to massage your scalp and increase blood circulation. Despite the vast array of scalp massagers available in the market, professionals do not recommend using the ones with nylon bristles because they may cause tangles and breakages. 

Massaging your scalp differs from using a comb, and a proper technique associated with the process will help you reap maximum results. If you have just taken a shower, you should use warm or hot water to stimulate the pores on your scalp.

It would be best to perform the massage in the shower while you lather shampoo onto your scalp to stimulate it. The suds of your shampoo and the massaging action of your fingers will work together to eliminate buildup on your scalp.

  • Rub the shampoo into your scalp and let it sit for a few minutes. 
  • Rinse it off will make your scalp smoother and give you an overall clean feeling. When you are done rinsing, it is best to pat your head dry rather than rub it with a towel. 
  • After patting your head dry, use a quality massager and run it over your scalp in small circles, moving from the front of your head to the back. It would help if you also rubbed your hands in small circles on the scalp as you move from the front to back. 
  • When you are done with the massager, rub your hands over your head in small circles. In addition to using a shampoo, you can apply essential oils onto your scalp to get a soothing massage. Some good essential oils to try are lavender and frankincense.

When you are done massaging your scalp, it is best if you use a hair dryer. Most people are unaware of this, but using a hair dryer can enhance blood circulation to the scalp. Using a hair dryer to dry your hair after a shower will help spread out the blood circulation evenly.

There is more to a scalp massage than the average person realizes, and a massage is a form of deep relaxation therapy for the body and mind. This therapy can help you in every aspect of your life, especially if you want to increase energy, reduce stress, and grow healthy hair.
