Hair plays a significant role in human appearance, influencing self-esteem and social interactions. This study explores the efficacy of botanical oil scalp massages as a natural and effective method for promoting hair health and growth. Oil therapy, a traditional practice rooted in various cultures, has been used for centuries to strengthen hair, prevent split ends, and minimize breakage. Recently, there has been a resurgence of interest in natural remedies, particularly botanical oils rich in vitamins, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants. This review highlights the potential of these oils in enhancing hair health and growth, focusing on their unique properties and benefits. Specific oils, such as coconut oil and argan oil, are examined for their roles in improving hair strength and resilience.
