Ayurveda: To use heat or not to use heat. That is the question...

Queenmickie

Always thinking about my next hairstyle.
As I wade deeper into deeper ayurvedic waters I wonder if I should be using heat when I use my pastes. I am sitting here with a henindgo (henna+indigo) paste in my hair without a plastic cap. The cooling sensation feels amazing on my scalp. It's not tingly, it is more refreshing and relaxing. Are we supposed to apply heat to the pastes? I read that most of us do but, I'm wondering if we are missing out on some added benefit of this cooling sensation. What say you all?
