How to DIY Your Hair Spa at Home
If you can’t go to the salon, here is how to do a hair spa at home.
Step 1: Hair Oil Massage
Start by massaging your hair with oil. It is best to massage your scalp with a circular motion using your fingertips. Apply light pressure only. Let the oil soak into your scalp and hair for ten minutes.
Step 2: Apply a Hair Mask
You can choose any solution as long as it addresses your concerns. You can make your own or buy one from a reliable store. Ideally, you should soak it on for around 15 minutes.
Step 3: Wrap a Hot Towel
While your hair is soaked with the hair mask, wrap a warm towel on your head for about 5 minutes. This will open the scalp pores for better oil penetration.
Step 4: Hair Cap
Put on a shower cap while it’s still warm. Leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 5: Massage
Remove your cap and give your scalp a massage again for 5 to 10 minutes
Step 6: Wash Hair
Wash your hair with warm water and a mild shampoo. You can go sulfate-free to lessen dryness.
Step 7: Apply Conditioner
Add conditioner and wash it with cold water.
