During your session a comfortable cap is fitted, warm herbal oil is poured and retained for about 30 minutes. You’ll experience gentle warmth, optional scalp massage and deep relaxation, followed by oil removal and post-treatment hair care.

Shirobasti suits most hair types and ages, but we tailor oil blends and duration to individual needs. Pregnant clients, recent surgery patients, or those with open wounds should consult the therapist before treatment.

Arrive with hair dry and free of heavy styling products. Remove hair accessories and inform us about allergies or scalp conditions. A short consultation will help us customize oils and ensure a comfortable, effective treatment.

Side effects are uncommon; you may notice temporary oiliness, mild drowsiness or increased hair softness. Rare allergic reactions can occur—inform us of sensitivities. We perform patch checks and adjust oils to minimize adverse effects.

Frequency depends on goals: weekly or biweekly sessions help acute concerns, while maintenance treatments every four to six weeks preserve benefits. We’ll recommend a tailored plan after assessing your scalp and hair condition.

Shirobasti can support hair health by improving circulation, nourishing follicles and reducing breakage, which may slow thinning. Results vary; combine with medical advice, nutritional support and a consistent treatment course for best outcomes.
