Luscious Locks Ritual Scalp Oil Recipe

by Eira | Jan 29, 2019 | Spiritual Living & Everyday Practice | 0 comments

Aside from trimming your hair during a waxing moon, you can bring a little ritual into your hair care. This scalp oil pairs castor oil with rosemary, basil, and lavender, herbs long tied to beauty, clarity, and self-love magic.

Rosemary, basil, and lavender essential oils join castor oil in this nourishing scalp oil. Rosemary has a long history in beauty and remembrance magic, and lavender brings calm. I've used this blend for months as a nightly self-care ritual, and I love how it feels.

If you’ve never tried castor oil for hair, you’re about to have your mind blown. If you have low porosity hair that doesn’t play well with coconut oil or olive oil, castor oil is your new best friend.

Luscious Locks Hair Oil Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 oz. Castor Oil (or half castor oil, half jojoba)
  • 2 drops Basil Essential Oil
  • 4 drops Rosemary Essential Oil
  • 2 drops Lavender Essential Oil
  • 1 drop Lemon Essential Oil (should be steam distilled)
  • 1 ounce Glass Bottle with Dropper

Directions

  1. Add all oils to your glass bottle and shake well.
  2. Use at night, before bed, on a clean scalp.

This works out to roughly a 1.5 percent dilution, gentle enough for regular use. Treat this blend as a beauty ritual, not a treatment. If you have scalp concerns or hair loss, talk with your doctor or dermatologist, and always do a patch test first to make sure your skin plays well with the ingredients.
