How to Apply Mavka Glow Hair and Scalp Treatment Oil to Roots Only (Leave for Up to 8 Hours)
Leaving oil on your roots for an extended period, such as overnight (up to 8 hours), allows the active ingredients to penetrate deeply into your scalp and hair follicles. This method is highly effective for promoting hair growth, reducing hair loss, and improving scalp health. Here’s how to do it:
How Often Should You Apply?
* 2-3 times per week is optimal for most people.
* For dry or damaged scalps, consider using the oil up to 3 times a week.
* For oily scalps, 1-2 times per week is enough to balance natural oil production.
When to Apply?
* Apply the oil in the evening so it can work while you sleep.
* Leave it on for up to 8 hours, and wash it out the following morning.
Step-by-Step Guide for Application
1. Start with Clean, Dry Hair
* Make sure your scalp is free of heavy product buildup, as this allows the oil to penetrate effectively.
* You don’t need to shampoo beforehand—just ensure your scalp is dry.
2. Section Your Hair
* Divide your hair into small sections using clips or your fingers for better access to your roots.
3. Apply Oil to the Roots
* Use a dropper or your fingertips to apply a small amount of oil directly to your scalp.
* Focus on areas where you experience thinning or hair loss.
4. Massage the Oil In
* Gently massage the oil into your scalp in circular motions for 3-5 minutes.
* This improves blood circulation, enhances absorption, and stimulates hair follicles.
5. Cover Your Hair (Optional)
* To prevent the oil from transferring to your pillow, cover your hair with a shower cap, silk scarf, or old towel.
* This step also helps retain heat, which enhances oil absorption.
Washing the Oil Out (The Next Morning)
* Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo to wash out the oil.
* Shampoo twice if necessary to remove heavier oils like castor or coconut.
* Follow up with a lightweight conditioner, focusing on the lengths and ends of your hair.
Why Leave the Oil for Up to 8 Hours?
* Deep Nourishment: Extended time allows the oil to penetrate the scalp and hair follicles deeply.
* Enhanced Benefits: Oils like rosemary, pumpkin seed, and tea tree block DHT, improve blood flow, and soothe scalp inflammation over time.
* Convenient Routine: Applying the oil overnight fits seamlessly into your routine, requiring no additional daytime effort.
Pro Tips
* Avoid Overapplying: Use just enough oil to coat your scalp—too much can be hard to wash out.
* Stay Consistent: Regular use is more effective than occasional deep treatments.
* Patch Test First: If you’re trying the oil for the first time, do a patch test to ensure no irritation or allergic reactions.
By leaving the oil on your roots for up to 8 hours, you give your scalp the time it needs to fully absorb the nutrients and promote healthier, stronger hair growth
