MIY - Hair & Scalp Oil Recipe

Is Rosemary Essential Oil Safe to use on your scalp?

 

This week Merike emailed to ask if our rosemary essential oil was safe to use on the scalp.


We just love getting these sorts of questions...as it gives us a chance to share our love of essential oils while helping our moonies to find solutions to their challenges.


Leonie's Answer:

The short answer to Merike's question is...yes.


Rosemary oil is not only safe to use on your scalp and skin but if can be quite beneficial.

BUT,  I would qualify this by saying that it is important to always dilute essential oils like Rosemary before applying to your skin.


Hair & Scalp Oil Recipe


This is the  Hair & Scalp Oil Recipe I gave Merike:


  • 5 drops of Rosemary essential oil

  • 20ml of Jojoba oil 


How to Make & Use:


  • Mix 5 drops of Rosemary essential oil with 20ml of Jojoba oil 

  • Apply to scalp.

  • Leave for 20 minutes

  • Shampoo and condition as usual

Why Use This Oil Mix?

Enhanced Hair Growth


Scientific Basis: A study published in Phytotherapy Research found that rosemary essential oil could counteract hair loss, possibly due to its circulation-boosting properties.

Scalp Health


Antimicrobial Properties: Rosemary oil exhibits antimicrobial activity, helping to maintain a healthy scalp environment. This is vital for preventing dandruff and scalp irritations.


Hydration and Nourishment: Jojoba oil closely resembles the sebum of the skin, providing optimal hydration and nourishment to the scalp.


Strengthening Hair


Rich in Nutrients: Rosemary is rich in antioxidants, which help in strengthening hair from the roots.


Prevents Hair Breakage: Regular use can result in stronger, more resilient hair, reducing breakage.

Enhanced Shine and Softness


Natural Conditioning: Jojoba oil acts as a natural conditioner, leaving hair soft and shiny.


Revitalizing Dull Hair: The combination helps to  revitalise dull hair, restoring its natural luster and vibrance.


Why not try this for yourself?
