Using Rosemary Oil for Balding. Does it Work?

By Scott Mogul

Have you considered using rosemary oil for balding? Rosemary oil and other herbal treatments for hair loss are becoming more and more popular these days. People are reluctant to spend lots of money on hair loss products like Rogaine that only work some of the time and can cause side effects. Instead, they are looking for natural treatments for hair loss, like rosemary oil for balding.

Rosemary oil helps with hair loss by stimulating the circulation. Better blood flow means less hair loss, in general, although how effective this treatment will be may depend on the type of hair loss you are experiencing, or the cause of your hair loss. But it’s an easy, affordable thing to try, and has virtually no side effects. You should know, though, that pregnant women are advised not to use rosemary oil as it might cause early labor and people with epilepsy or other seizure disorders are advised not to use rosemary oil as it might trigger a seizure.

Using Rosemary Oil for Balding

If you want to try rosemary oil for balding, visit your local health food store to buy some rosemary essential oil. You can also order some online. Make sure you are getting real essential oil, not just scented oil. One easy way to tell the difference is to look at the price. Rosemary oil will usually cost you about $6 an ounce, depending on where you buy it. But you should notice that different oils have different prices, because some herbs and plants cost more and also it takes more of certain herbs and plants to make an ounce of essential oil. If all the oils cost the same amount, then they probably aren’t real essential oils.

Rosemary essential oil can be irritating to the skin if applied to the skin directly. Instead, you should use a carrier oil like almond oil, grapeseed oil, or jojoba oil. You should be able to buy one of those wherever you buy your essential oil. Add about ten drops of rosemary essential oil to a teaspoon of your carrier oil and mix well.

Use a small amount of the oil mixture on your fingertips and massage your scalp firmly. Massage with your fingertips, not your nails. Massage for a full minute or more.

Apply the rosemary oil for balding every day, preferably after shampooing your hair. It may take several weeks before you notice a significant difference.

Other Herbal Treatments for Hair Loss

There are a number of other herbal treatments for hair loss that you could try, as well.

Cedarwood essential oil. Use this the same way you would use rosemary oil. It improves the circulation to the scalp.

Ginkgo biloba. This herb can be taken in capsule form to improve circulation and help with hair loss.

Dong Quai. This is one of the popular Chinese treatments for hair loss. It can be taken in capsule form to reduce the formation of DHT, a common cause of hair loss, especially in men.

Stinging Nettle. This can also be taken in capsule form to reduce the formation of DHT.

Saw Palmetto. This can also be taken in capsule form and may reduce the formation of DHT.

Vitamins for Hair Loss

In addition to herbs and essential oils, you might want to look into vitamins that can help prevent hair loss. B vitamins, biotin, and zinc can all help prevent hair loss in many cases. You may want to make changes to your diet to get more of these vitamins, or you might want to consider taking some supplements.

I don't have this problems, honest. I do have a friend and a couple of brothers who seem to be getting a bit bald so I was interested in your intel. You have given quite a few tips and I'll pass them along.
Thank you for writing this informative intel.
All the best,
Laraine
