I love it when someone massaging my head or scalp. Massaging the scalp helps keep your hair healthy and can also promote hair growth. Nourishment is sent to the capillary vessels in hair papillae to activate the hair cells. Not just that it will also helps to release tension:
> Take 10 minutes .... at your local hair salon to really enjoy your shampoo by having a scalp massage at the same time. I just did that this afternoon!
> Take 15 minutes .... to give yourself a scalp massage at home. Start lightly at the front, then apply more pressure as you reach the hairline. Use your thumbs to move your ears towards your temples.
OR,
Start from the forehead hairline along the arteries in the front, side, and back of the head, making small circles with your fingertips. Work your way toward the top of the head as if drawing a circle.
> Then, gently tug at large sections of hair to bring the blood to the surface. I normally will have this hair pulling technique as part of the massage before my facial. It is said that the hair pulling technique is good especially for headaches (including migraines and sinus).
There are so many ways to perform scalp massage. What I just shared with you are those that I am familiar with during either my facial or body massage. I also found another tips of how to do scalp massage on this page.
Of course it is even better if someone is doing it for you!
I just did a little self-massage while washing my hair
