But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to men that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. Mat. 6:17-18

One little question I have is the Scripture says to put oil on your head and to wash your face so that it would not be obvious that you're fasting but do you have to put oil on your head when fasting? Thank you
