How to Use Essential Oils for Hair

Beautiful hair enhances your appearance. No matter how you like to wear your hair, it should feel smooth and have a healthy shine. These formulas will help to promote a natural shine and a healthier scalp, whether your hair is normal, dry or oily. They are best used at bedtime, to allow several hours for your hair and scalp to absorb them.

Choose 100 percent pure essential oils-only these offer healthful benefits. The label will state "100% pure." You can find them at health food stores and online. Dont use synthetic oils as they do not have the same benefits.

Buy only sesame, hazelnut or jojoba oil that is specifically designed to be used for massage. It has been specially refined and prepared for use on the skin. You can get it at health food stores and online.

Select the formula that suits your hairs condition. Formula 1 is for Normal Hair, Formula 2 is for Dry Hair and Formula 3 is for Oily Hair.

Make Formula 1 for Normal Hair. To create the hair oil, mix the essential oil with the jojoba oil. Measure two tablespoons (30ml) of the oil into the plastic bottle, then add 8 drops of thyme essential oil, 6 drops of sage, 6 drops of chamomile, and 5 drops of lavender. Shake well and go to Step 7.
