The ultimate self care and self love ritual can be traced back to 3000 years ago, from the ancient Ayurvedic scriptures. Oiling the hair and indulging in an oily body massage is quintessentially Indian. Infused with medicinal herbs, aromatic flowers and healing botanicals, the blend of all-natural Ayurvedic secrets into oils is the perfect recipe to feed the mind, body and soul. You may wonder how? Well, oiling is almost synonymous with massaging, which heals, repairs and detoxifies. From the troves of oils, these little magic potions can be incorporated into both pre and post-bath rituals. Priyanka Chopra took to her Instagram to introduce her pre-wash hair rituals which involve a good hair oil champi.
