What is the purpose of a hair and scalp oil, when should it be used, and how do I choose the oil for my hair that won't give my hair the greases?

An oil should be used on your hair in order to lubricate the hair shaft—in other words to give your hair a nice natural shine—and can be used to relieve a dry scalp. All oils are not the same, some are actually "greasy" products. The best way to choose the oil that is right for your hair and scalp is by doing a simple test: Rub a small amount of oil into the skin on the back of your hand. Your skin should immediately absorb the oil and shouldn't feel sticky or greasy. If the oil is skin friendly, it will be hair and scalp friendly. Remember, only apply a small amount of oil to your hair and /or scalp on an as needed basis, because as your hair and scalp becomes healthy there may not be a need for the use of a oil on the scalp area. In cases where you need to use oil I recommend Oil Sheen In A Jar . To apply, lightly glaze the palms of your hand or fingertips, then apply to the strands of the hair or scalp areas that look dull and dry. By doing this you will get the full benefits of using oil without having the greases.
