The oil of methi is rich in nourishment and is believed to be a do good for hair. It is cool on one’s head and works as a natural conditioner for dull, lifeless hair.”

Hibiscus, on the other hand, gives a healthy shine to one’s hair. The fragrance of rose and jasmine offers a soothing property and acts on the emotional or psychological state of mind. They both seem to enhance the positive state of the mind and help in relaxation and refreshment.
