for oily skin condition. The hair routine aims at removing the excess oil
and to exfoliate skin cells which clog up and suffocate the hair follicles
in our scalp. Infection usually erupts in the blocked hair follicles which
lead to hair loss and other scalp disorders.
The emphasis is laid on cleansing and toning routines. The cleansing routine
involves washing and rinsing the hair. Since the hair has to be washed as
frequently as it gets dirty and oily, a natural shampoo on a formulation of
herbs such as Amla, Shikakai, Trifala is ideal.
The ideal shampoo is always gentle in action, thorough in dissolving the
grime and at the same time, not harsh like a detergent shampoo.
Massaging hair and scalp is important for the wellbeing as well as good
growth of the hair. For dry hair, scalp massaging with oil is recommended.
For oily hair, massage with toning lotion is suitable. A two minute
brushing, stroking and combing routine is sufficient massage exercise for
the scalp.
Oily hair home cure: Shampoo Cleanser Recipe
1. Buy some shikakai powder from the market. Powder some green grams and
fenugreek (methi) seeds. Mix two portions of shikakai powder, one portion of
green gram flour and half portion of Fenugreek powder and keep it. When
required, mix a tablespoon of this mixture in the white of an egg and use it
as a shampoo. It does not lather like a soap, or shampoo, but cleanses the
hair.
2. Take some dry soap nuts (reetha) and soak them in water overnight. Mash
them in the morning and strain the soapy solution. Add a teaspoon of
shikakai powder and wash your hair.

recipe. Prepare it and mix it in the shampoo you use.

glass of water for 20 minutes. Strain the solution and mix in a 300 ml
bottle of shampoo.

brush and set your hair.
