Are carrier oils necessary? Yes, because they are used to dilute essential oils before applying them to the skin. Your scalp is skin, never forget that. This is important, because essential oils are very concentrated and can cause irritation if they are used undiluted. Carrier oils also help to "carry" the essential oil onto the skin/scalp, and can provide added moisture and nourishment.
We get a lot of questions about carrier oils, and whether or not they are necessary when working with essential oils. The short answer is Yes. It’s better to be safe than sorry.
Some of you more experienced users of essential oils don’t always feel that carrier oils are necessary. Through trial and error, you’ve learned which oils you can use without irritations. For new users, they are absolutely necessary, at least until you find out what works for you.
There are many different carrier oils available, and each has its own unique properties. Some common carrier oils include jojoba oil, coconut oil, and grapeseed oil. You can also use simple vegetable oils such as olive oil or almond oil.
When choosing a carrier oil, it’s important to consider your own individual needs. For example, if you have dry hair, you may want to use a carrier oil that is high in moisture (such as jojoba oil or coconut oil). If you have oily hair, you may want to use a carrier oil that is light and absorbs quickly (such as grapeseed oil or almond oil).
It’s also important to consider the essential oils that you plan to use. Be sure to choose a carrier oil that will complement the essential oils you are using.
In general, it’s a good idea to have a variety of carrier oils on hand so that you can choose the best one for each situation.
When working with essential oils, it’s important to remember that less is more. Start with a small amount of oil, as in, one drop at a time and increase as needed. Be sure to dilute the essential oil before applying it to your hair.
The type of carrier oil you use is up to you, and will depend on your individual needs and preferences.
In general, we recommend using a carrier oil when applying essential oils to your hair or skin/scalp. This will help to reduce the risk of irritation and will also provide some additional benefits. Some of you will still use essential oils undiluted. If you insist and choose this route, be sure to use a very small amount, and start with one drop at a time.
There are many essential oils that can be used for natural/Afro textured hair. The best ones for you, will depend on your individual needs. If you are looking for an all-purpose oil, lemongrass oil is a great choice.
For people with dandruff or scalp psoriasis, eucalyptus or tea tree oil is a good option. These 9 are some of the best options to try if you’re looking to improve the condition of your scalp and hair.
Remember to always dilute essential oils with a carrier oil before applying them to your skin or hair, and start with a small amount to avoid irritation.
