Of course, good brushing keeps the hair alive and provides it luster. But a regular hair massage is an essential part of hair care. A good massage provides :
• Stimulation and increases blood circulation in scalp muscles.
• Removes dandruff flakes.
• Relieves mental tension, if done on the sections and nape of neck.
• Helps healthy growth of hair, if done near the temples and the sides of the scalp. It will not only stimulate the roots of the hair but will also keep facial muscles strong.
A 15-minute scalp massage twice in week or five-minute scalp massage plus brushing daily should be a regular hair program. Our hair is a chain of molecules held together. It grows from a tiny cavity in the scalp called hair follicle and the base of each follicle is a network of blood vessels that supply nourishment i.e. oxygen and food to the hair root and carry away carbon dioxide and other metabolic waste materials. When the waste products accumulate in the tissues, the blood circulation becomes poor and cannot easily travel to the hair roots. Under such circumstances, the growth of hair becomes slow and sometimes in the absence of sufficient food, the existing hair may die.
