massaging your scalp is one way to increase blood flow to your head. and increased blood flow to the head is said to help boost the growth of hair. no dramatic results but many say it makes a slight differenceWhat is the purpose of a Scalp massage? Can it help regrow hair?
when you get your scalp massaged in the salon they are doing it for 3 reasons:


1) the conditioner has to sit in the hair for about 3 - 5 min to actually penetrate so this kills time





2) the clients usually love it and it can be a major reason they choose a hairstylist





3) stimulation to the hair is good because at the bottom of the follicle where your hair grows is the papilla which basically is a blood vessle that nourishes the hair. when the papilla dies the hair isn't nourished and then falls out (ex. balding)





so if you are massaging your scalp you are getting the blood flowing to the follicle which may result in your hair growing but if you are already bald then it may not work.What is the purpose of a Scalp massage? Can it help regrow hair?
