Duration and direction for use

Direction for use of Cutinol Hair Oil:
Anoint the affected area with sufficient quantity of Cutinol hair oil.
You can use it in place of your regular hair oil.
Once or twice a week, you can apply this in large quantities, leave it over night and wash hair next morning, or apply 1 hour before hair wash.
How to wash off the
hair oil?
Wait for at least 30 minutes
before washing hair. Longer the delay, better (except for very oily hairs). It
is best to use herbal hair wash powders to wash off the hair oil. One or two
rounds of wash with hair wash powder will get rid off oil from hair. It is very
fine, even if some amount of oiliness remains on the hair.
Traditional treatises mention cold water to wash hair and face. (Reference:
Ashtanga Sangraha, Sutrasthana, Dinacharya chapter). But to wash oily hair,
lukewarm water can also be used. Avoid very hot water for hair wash.
