Sulphur Oil Mix: What's yours?

[intergalacticartist]

I'm trying to figure out how to make my own sulphur oil mix, or rather, the ratios I should use. I was thinking 1tsp:3 oz of oil? I think I'm just gonna use the African Oil from the store and maybe put some more castor and coconut oil in it.

you should be using a heaping tsp of oil for every 8 ounces.. 3oz is too little oil and you could have a bad reaction. here's a thread about it i did a search for you:

you could add some ceramide based oils to your mix as well here's a thread about that too:

I probably shouldn't , but i eyeball all my measurements. My sulphur oil mix is (probably equal parts) Olive oil, coconut oil,jojoba oil, wheatgerm oil (it stinks), grapeseed oil, castor oil, tea tree oil/peppermint oil. So i guess in an 8oz bottle i would add maybe a teaspoon of sulphur. I feel like my oil helps to calm my scalp. I tend to have less scalp irritation.

I steeped my oil in nettle and horsetail herbs first. The mixed in 1 tsp of sulphur oil to 8 oz of oil.

 

[MISSBOSSY]

I use 1 tsp sulphur, 4oz emu oil, 3oz castor oil & 1oz of eucalyptus oil

I eye ball the sulfur (it may be like 1.5 tsp). I also steep horsetail, rosemary and black tea (reduces shedding?) in my oil. I usually use a combo of hot six, olive and coconut oil with just a hint of castor oil. I use a tea strainer that I got at a health food store to infuse my herbs into the oil.

i have a sulphur mix of majority olive oil, then some coconut oil and castor oil,a little cayenne pepper, and a heaping teaspoon of sulphur. I just started this mix this week. Has any one seen any results from their homemade mixes?

I infuse my oil which is either canola or olive oil with dried rosemary, horsetail, nettle, hot pepper, cinnamon, and a little bit of garlic powder. I let it sit for a few weeks as I don't have a double boiler or glass jar. I then strain it and add a heaping teaspoon of sulfur to 8 oz.

What do you strain it with? Do you use cinnamon power or bark?

I strain it with the stockings they have at shoe stores or even cut off pantyhose. Usually I use bark because the last time when I tried grounded cinnamon, I couldn't get all of it strained out so some bits were left in the mix. It wasn't that much to be noticeable but just a heads up.

This is what I do except I add 2 tsp. sublimed sulfur
