We all want to meet the world with a healthy head\u2026<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

So many people I talk to are fighting their way through the transition between bottled and bar shampoo. Are you one of them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some people, the transition is easy, while for others it\u2019s nothing less than arduous. No matter which side of the fence you\u2019re on, or what products you\u2019re currently using, let\u2019s for a moment talk about your largely overlooked scalp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a busy place up there. The skin on the top of your head, strives to stay clean and fresh with whatever hair products you send its way. It keeps all your hair in order, to stay healthy, moisturized and dandruff-free, but have you ever thought of doing something nice just for your scalp?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How about a head massage?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The ingredients are simple and it only takes a few minutes of well-deserved \u201cme time\u201d:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • 1 tablespoon of liquid vegetable oil of your choice (rapeseed, sweet almond, jojoba, grapeseed)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 2-3 drops of essential oil<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Blend these together and massage into your scalp with your fingers. Yes, it might get a little goopy, but remember you\u2019re aiming for the scalp; it’s a bonus if your hair gets a revitalizing treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
