I wanted to share my homemade conditioning scalp massage with others who maybe suffering with a sensitive and itchy scalp, its a massage you can do yourself and it also relieves tension in your head, neck and encourages the flow of blood to your brain to perk you up.

Use a few drops of essential oil in a tablespoon of carrier oil (olive oil or almond are good.) Choose an essential oil to suit your hair condition and mood.



Rosemary - For an itchy and flaky scalp, its also very invigorating.
Lavender - For greasy hair and to help you relax.
Geranium - To sooth and moisturize dry hair.

Rub a little of the blended oil of your choice into your hands. Make a fist with each hand and then extend your fingers slightly, keeping them braced.

Starting with the nape of your neck, massage your scalp in sections, working methodically round your head. You may find that you need to shampoo your hair twice to remove the oil so try use a mild shampoo.
