Frequently Asked Questions
How is hair oil normally used?
Warmed slightly between the palms, worked through the lengths and often massaged into the scalp, then left on for anywhere from half an hour to overnight before washing out. Champi - the oil massage - is a long-standing routine across South Asia and is often a weekly thing rather than a daily one.
How much should I use?
Start with far less than you think and add. A teaspoon is plenty for most lengths. Too much oil takes two or three washes to shift and leaves hair looking flat, which is the usual complaint from people trying it for the first time.
How do I wash it out?
Shampoo onto dry or barely damp oiled hair first, work it through, and only then add water. Adding water first makes the shampoo slide over the oil rather than lift it, which is why one wash sometimes is not enough.
Should I put it on the scalp or just the lengths?
Both are done, and it depends what you are after. Oil on the lengths is about how the hair handles and looks; oil on the scalp is the massage part of the routine. If your scalp is irritated or flaking, that is a question for a pharmacist or a doctor rather than a product page.
Will it stain a pillow?
Yes, if you leave it on overnight. An old pillowcase or a towel over the pillow is the standard answer, and washing the pillowcase promptly stops the oil setting into the fabric.
Where do I check what is in it?
On the pack. The ingredient list and any warnings are the manufacturer's to state, and they are printed on the packaging rather than reproduced here. The product page carries the size, the barcode and the best-before or use-by date as the store entered them.
Is this the Indian-market version?
The listing shows what the store has in stock, and products sourced for the Indian market can differ from a New Zealand retail version in formulation, pack size and the wording on the label. Read the pack you receive rather than assuming it matches a version you have used before.
How much is delivery, and is there a minimum order?
Delivery is calculated at checkout, where the exact amount is confirmed. Free delivery applies above the threshold shown there, in the Auckland region only. There is no minimum order value, and you can combine items from other local stores in the same cart.
