Adding scent to Shealoe

Is it safe to add a couple of drops of Cinnamon EO to my shealoe for scent?? I'm just talking like 2-3 drops purely for scent. I'm asking because I don't know what effects, if any, cinnamon oil has on hair.

If not safe to use Cinnamon EO is it safe to use the Cinnamon Fragrance Oil from FNWL?

my thought is that its safe to use cinnamon oil (especially as a pre-shampoo treatment, ive heard LHCF ladies doing that) ..but, conversely, if you have any cuts or scratches in the scalp or its broken in anyway the soothing tingling might turn to PAIN!:eek: ...if i were you, id probably switch to a less caustic oil like a peppermint to test whether you like it...

lol just my lil take on things...

plus, with peppermint, the smell is a stronger one and is more soothing plus you'll get some therapeutic benefits- tingly invigorating scalp (similar to using cinnamon oil), and smell not too strong..it'll fade..!:)
 
thanks for replying! :)

the thing is i wont be using it on my scalp. it's just a moisturizer for my hair and my skin...do you think a cinnamon fragrance oil (specifically for fragrance) instead of the essential oil would work better?
