I bought some essential oil to stimulate hair growth but don't know what to mix it with to apply!water or oil?

You can either make a scalp oil or hair rinse, or both.





To make the scalp oil, blend the essential oil in a carrier oil (jojoba is my favorite, but you can use olive or another plant oil you have handy). Use about 10% essential oil in the blend (1 part essential oil and 9 parts carrier oil). Every night, use it to massage your scalp. Put a couple drops on your fingertips and massage it directly into your scalp, trying to avoid getting it on your hair (it's fine for your hair, but it can get messy). Leave it in overnight. You may or may not need to wash it out in the morning.





You can also make a hair rinse to use in the shower. Use essential oils to water in a 1-5% mix. After you finish washing/conditioning your hair, shake up the hair rise really well, and just dump some on your scalp. Don't rinse it out.





I prefer the scalp oil to the hair rinse, but I've used both in the past.
