Scalp Scrub

With natural hair, I never quite feel that breezy feeling when the air hits my scalp. Also, scalp scrubbing is purported to help hair growth. I use scalp scrubs and I love them because they make me feel like my scalp is clean.
When discussing hair care, it’s important to acknowledge that all hair types are not the same. I have thick, curly, African American hair. The scrubs with olive oil in them are not advisable for thin hair. The mixture with cornmeal is great for drying an oily scalp.

In a bowl, mix:
The Tingly Scalp

• 1 tbsp. Clarifying shampoo
• 1 tbsp. Cornmeal 
• 1 tbsp. Peppermint oil or tea tree oil

Sweet Olive Oil

• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• 1 tbsp. cup brown sugar

Sticky And Sweet Olive Oil

• 1 tbsp. honey
• 1 ½ tbsp. olive oil
• 3 tbsp. brown or white sugar

Stir until it is thoroughly mixed. I part my hair and apply the mixture to my scalp with a toothbrush.
