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! 
Your Keepers
By Author Unknown
I grew up in the fifties with practical parents -- a Mother, God love her, who washed aluminum foil after she cooked in it, then reused it. She was the original recycle queen, before they had a name for it... A Father who was happier getting old shoes fixed than buying new ones.
Their marriage was good, their dreams focused. Their best friends lived barely a wave away. I can see them now, Dad in trousers, tee shirt and a hat and Mom in a house dress, lawn mower in one hand, dish towel in the other.
It was the time for fixing things -- a curtain rod, the kitchen radio, screen door, the oven door, the hem in a dress. Things we keep. It was a way of life, and sometimes it made me crazy. All that re-fixing, reheating, renewing, I wanted just once to be wasteful. Waste meant affluence. Throwing things away meant you knew there'd always be more.
But then my Mother died, and on that clear summer's night, in the warmth of the hospital room, I was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't any more.
Sometimes, what we care about most gets all used up and goes away... never to return.
So...while we have it...it's best we love it.....and care for it.... and fix it when it's broken..... and heal it when it's sick. This is true... for marriage...old radios...and old cars... and children with bad report cards... and dogs with bad hips... and aging parents... and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it. Some things we keep. Like a best friend that moved away -- or -- a classmate we grew up with.
Who are the keepers in your life?
