Alopecia Custom Blend

A randomized, double-blind, controlled trial at a NIH dermatology outpatient clinic showed the combination of four oils plus a carrier oil is a safe and effective treatment for alopecia.  The aim of study was to test the hypothesis that pharmacologically active stimulants for hair growth are present in these oils and that use of these oils can be therapeutic in patients with alopecia.  In conclusion, the trial showed an improvement rate of 44%. This result is comparable to and possibly of more benefit than trials of conventional therapies for alopecia areata. Compared with these other treatments, its safety is also greater, offering a better therapeutic ratio. Our Alopecia Custom Blend includes the four oils used in the study:  Thyme (Thyme vulgaris, Lavender (Lavandula agustifolia) Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) and Cedarwood (Cedrus atlantica). All oils in our formula are certified organic and manufactured by Snow Lotus Aromatherapy in Santa Rosa, CA. Mixing: For 1 application: Mix 10 drops of Essential oil  into 23ML/1.5 Tablespoons of carrier oil,  For larger batch of 5 applications: mix 50 drops into 4 oz of carrier oil.  The carrier oil used in the study was 20ML Grapeseed and 3ML of Jojoba (Approximately 1 part Jojoba to 7 parts Grapeseed oil.  Your application will depend on hair length,thickness/texture, scalp area, etc. You may need more or less). Instructions: Massaged oils into the scalp for a minimum of 2 minutes. Wrap a warm towel around the head to aid absorption of the oils. Patients in the study were advised to do it every night. Efficacy was measured at both 3 months and 7 months of use.
