Hair care tips: DIY hair oil to nourish your scalp

The scalp is a part of the skin, which is the largest organ in the body. In her post, Diwekar mentions how we all complain about poor hair quality, hair loss and even alopecia, but do very little to optimise scalp health. In fact, it has become convenient for many to assume that they have PCOD or thyroid issues, and thus the hair fall and poor skin quality.

"We opt for expensive treatments to cure it but don't use our kitchen optimally for it. So here goes - a DIY for your hair and scalp," Diwekar adds.
