Hello all.. my daughter is 5 year old. I want to know whats the best method of applying hair oil. If i apply 2 - 3 hours before washing is that enough and after washing the oil doesn't come out properly and if i reshampoo, the hair becomes dry. I cannot apply after washing the hair because that way the oil will remain in her hair for 2 days because i wash her hair after every two days. We are from extreme north the temperature is still below 10 degrees so washing frequently is not possible Please suggest the best possible way. Thank you so much

hi waheeda ! apply one hour before washing after massaging in circular motion. use non sticky oil. make sure roots are washed well ,without rubbing hard.. bend the neck by stretching it towards back ( with a support on back)and then wash head with lukewarm water( NoT hot )... wash twice in a week.

Thank you so much Zara. I apply Mamaearth on her hair. After washing since her hair becomes dry and frizzy i apply little bit of oil on her frizzy hair, Is that ok?... And how about homemade coconut oil? How safe and effective is that? Please suggest the best. Thank you

Hi Waheeda, i think if you use a light non sticky oil like that of Johnsons, it can be washed off easily without making the hair dry. I use the same for my son. In fact I wash his every day after leaving on the oil for about half an hour. His hair is soft, thick and shiny.
