Alopecia Aromatherapy Recipe for Promoting Hair Growth

An alopecia aromatherapy recipe is one made from essential oils, which have been used for millennia to treat common ailments, and for that reason it is gaining many believers. If stress can be controlled by using the scents of chamomile, clary sage and ylang ylang then putting it in hair care products might also reduce stress.  Two of the more effective herbs used in an alopecia aromatherapy recipe are thyme and rosemary. They are soothing and usually work well, especially if the cause is hormone imbalance.

When it is time to mix up your alopecia aromatherapy recipe, you cannot use any essential oils directly onto your scalp. Rather, you must blend them with carrier oil as most essential oils should not be used straight onto skin. Almond, coconut as well as olive oil are all carrier oils that are extremely complimentary to essential oils.

If you mix an alopecia aromatherapy recipe for alopecia in a squeeze bottle or spray container then it can also be used as the applicator. This will cause things to be less messy because you can apply the aromatherapy treatment directly onto your scalp. You may stain clothing and some surfaces, if you're not careful, when mixing and applying essential oils.

Starting with a your bottle dispenser, pour about two ounces of the carrier oil of your choice along with 5 drops of ylang ylang, thyme and rosemary. With two drops of lavender, thyme, chamomile, cedar wood and clay sage, your alopecia aromatherapy recipe is complete. Mixing the different essential oils together with the carrier oil and then placing that on a hidden area on you skin to make sure there are no major and unexpected breakouts is a vital step.

All you need to do to kick start new hair growth with your alopecia aromatherapy recipe is massage a few drops onto your scalp so as to stimulate the hair roots. There are many essential oils available, so you should do some research to see how each one works and what the medicinal properties are.
