The Art of Hair Oiling: A Ritual for Nourishment and Renewal
Hair oiling is more than just a step in your haircare routine – it’s a ritual rooted in ancient traditions. Our founder was inspired to create our luxury hair and scalp serum based on her Mediterranean beauty experiences and love for the Ayurvedic way of life. Nourishing your hair and scalp with oils has many transformative benefits and we have blended ancient wisdom with cutting-edge science to bring you a serum like no other.
The science of hair oiling is proven in its ability to strengthen the hair shaft therefore, reducing breakage and improving scalp health.
At AmaRaya, we honour these traditions by creating our product that seamlessly blends ancient wisdom with modern efficacy.
So, how do you oil your hair?
Apply with intention
- Start by warming a small amount of our product between your palms to activate its properties.
- Part your hair into sections to ensure the oil reaches all areas of the scalp.
- Use your fingertips to gently massage the oil in circular motions to help stimulate blood flow as well as promoting relaxation.
- Work the oil through the lengths of your hair, focusing on the ends if they are particularly dry or damaged.
We would suggest leaving the oil in overnight, protecting your pillow with a towel. Alternatively, you can leave the oil on your hair for 30 minutes and then rinse.
When rinsing, do so thoroughly with a gentle shampoo to remove the oil. Follow with a lightweight conditioner.
The after-effect
Your hair should now feel softer, shinier and healthier without feeling greasy. If it feels a little weighed down, try using slightly less product the next time you oil your hair.
We would advise that you now make this a part of your routine, dedicating time to practice this weekly to ensure prominent self-care. Hair oiling isn’t just about the results; it’s about the process.
