I know the article is long, but I found this information exciting..I am going to mix up a batch and see what happens...

Ok, so I know this EO mix is probably supposed to make your scalp tingle...but is it supposed to make it itch? I've used this mixture twice, about a week apart and both times, the next day, my scalp was itchy. Not unbearable itchy, but like...that itch you feel like when you have a cut and it's healing. I'm just wondering if anyone else had similar reactions?

Also...is it supposed to smell like the wilderness? It's very "wood-like smelling.

Maybe you should add those essential oils to a Carrier oil, like Coconut,Almond,Jojoba etc. The mix could be too strong for your scalp. Some oils have to be diluted before they come in contact with skin.

You probably need to dilute the eo's more, and it is indeed supposed to smell "woodsy."

How did I miss this?

I will be making this very soon!

Good info!

Can anyone share their results please?

Its really important when mixing eo's to anything - oils or creams lotions potions etc - to get the ratio right.
I cant remember what the ratio is but I think it is something like 5 drops (of eo) per 5ml (of base oil).
If too much eo's are used it can cause irritation because they are very potent.

I'll try this too!

I need to go EO shopping first though

I've been using this mixture for about 2 weeks now. It's too early to tell how much growth I'm getting, but I'm definitely getting newgrowth. I use Peachy recipe, (15 drops of eo to 1 T of grapeseed oil) and it is enough for two applications. I wash my hair twice a week so this is perfect. The smell takes getting use to, but it is not bad. One time a week I leave it in overnight and wash the next day; the other day I leave it in for about 30 minutes and rinse out. I use this mixture before during my scalp massages and I do have newgrowth. I like this mixture and my scalp is tingling before and after my massager and it seems to tingle for hours.

I've used this mix consistently since April 2007. It works well for me & I continue to experience re-growth in areas that haven't seen hair since......FOREVER!

I love the herbal smell!

I already add JoJoba and Almond oilerplexed. I'll try adding some more though, maybe my scalp is extra-sensative.

 

[kimistry]

Thanks FancyPants and Discodumpling! I will have to give this a shot.

 

[NCRapunzel]

How does this compare to the growth you might get with MN or WGO? Also, how frequently should this be applied?

 

[PureSilver]

Thanks for posting this, a co-worker of mine has alopecia maybe i could try to help with this mix.

Check out the link for more info on this proven method of hair re-growth.

I use up to 2X a day. The oils are all light and ultra absorbent.

Truly the fastest growth aid for me was MN. I swear I woke up every morning I used it and had new growth at the crown

But I never intended to use MN long term. No matter what growth aid I have used I always return to these oils. Simple & effective.

I think I want to try this. I know I've been using rosemary in my hair to help with dry scalp and it grew my hair a lot. It's only been six weeks and I feel like I NEED to perm. Normally I wait eight weeks. Also, I've been having less itchies.

 

[Sui Topi]

I think it's so cool that we are replacing growth aids with our own, natural ones. This sounds really good and healthy, good luck everyone! (I wanna see the results thread!)

 

[Platinum]

Very interesting! Anyone still using this?

 

[Blu217]

I have alopecia and tried this for a while. All it gave me was a greasy, smelly (depending on how you feel about the scent) scalp. I do believe you have to stick with this for quite a few months to see results, if there are to be any--as with any regrowth aid, really.

I have been using this concoction since Dec 26 07. The results have been remarkable! I BC'd in May of 07. My TWA seems not to grow at all. I use it once daily like every 2 to 3 days at night. My TWA is now an afro falls on my neck, covers my ears to the ear lobe, and my bang hits my eyebrows. When straightened, it looks like the first pic (taken January08). The second pic was taken in July 07.

Heres the second pic

I can attest that this potion worked for my daughter's alopecia patches (2) about 5 years ago. I found the recipe while researching (I was desperate) and used the mixture for approximately 3 months and her patches grew in. To be honest the dermatologist said her hair would grow back because she had non-scarring alopecia, but all I know is that I used this topical method alone and it her hair was restored. My results were not exactly scientific, I know. Just my personal experience.

Are you ladies still using this oil?
