Hair Essentials - Tea Tree Oil Hair Massage

*clearing throat* So I did a tea tree oil treatment, well, I had one done for me rather. It was soooo soothing on my scalp.
Step 1: Get Tea Tree Oil and tea tree oil applier (boo, bff, stylist, etc.)
Step 2: Make one inch parts in hair from frontal hairline to the nape of the neck
Step 3: Gently apply tea tree oil in part and scratch any dandruff out with comb by rubbing the comb gently against the scalp (base of the hair shaft) without pulling hair shaft out from the scalp
Step 4: Repeat step 2 & 3 until the entire head is completed
Step 5: Gently massage the oil into scalp by rubbing the fingers over the scalp in a circular motion (this feels sooo good) especially when you have an itchy scalp.

WARNING: Avoid using tea tree oil on open wounds


I was not able to wash my hair though, but I will be washing it tonight and will moisturize and put my hair in twists. Think I'm going to rock my twists and do twists outs for the next 7 days at least. I bought two beanies some time ago and because of the cold weather, even though my gf pressed my hair for me in turn for doing a braided do in her hair, I wear the beanies over my pressed hair and would wear it over my twists. No wrong in having the extra protection especially on the ends of my hair if I'm not going to pin my twists up. I'll add pics in the next couple days. Oh, here's the pic of the braided fro I did for my girl


Took about 2 hrs or so while intensely watching 'For Colored Girls'
