2. Cleanliness is a basic requirement for a healthy scalp. So it's True.
3. Scalp massages can help with relaxation and address various scalp conditions. So it's True.
4. Using fingernails to touch, scrape or scratch the scalp during massage is not recommended as it can damage the scalp. So it's False.
5. Massaging during the conditioning phase helps with product distribution and scalp health. So it's True.
6. Incorporating stiff, mechanical movements is not ideal; smooth and fluid movements are better. So it's False.
