Step 1: Take any oil of your choice in a bowl; coconut, almond or olive will work well for every hair and scalp type. You can use it at room temperature or warm it up slightly.

Step 2: Start by placing your fingers on your hairline and apply some pressure and then release.

Step 3: Now, move a little upwards towards the crown area. Dip your fingertips in the oil and gradually massage by applying some pressure and then releasing.

Step 4: Keep moving in the upward direction bit by bit, applying pressure and release throughout the process.

Step 5: When you reach the top of your head, apply pressure there and then swiftly start moving downwards towards the back of your head.
