HOW TO DO AN OIL MASSAGE (CHAMPI):<\/strong><\/p>\n

Warm the oil to a comfortable temperature.<\/p>\n

First, part the hair down the centre and apply the warm oil mixture to the scalp with your fingers or use a tint bottle with a long nozzle.<\/p>\n

Work in small sections down the sides of the head, then the back making sure the mixture covers the entire scalp.<\/p>\n

Bend your head forward so that your chin touches the chest. Pour more oil along the back of your head down to where the hairline ends.<\/p>\n

Spread the oil over the back of the head and massage the oil into your neck and shoulders.<\/p>\n

Next, give your scalp a good massage. \u00a0Rub with the pads of your fingers in a circular motion all over the scalp for 5 to 10 minutes. Apply some pressure, but don\u2019t press so hard that it hurts.<\/p>\n

Leave the oil in for a minimum of twenty minutes. Cover your head to protect it from air and cold drafts.<\/p>\n

You can also keep it overnight but make sure you tie your hair and wear a shower cap.<\/p>\n
