The 6 Oils + The Tools
The 6 Oils + The Tools
Antioxidant-rich and loaded with vitamin A — it's the one that's supposed to help most with scalp circulation and hair growth, while also smoothing fine lines on skin. Goes into the base of my blend.
Allurials Organic Cold-Pressed Carrot Seed Oil
Deep red, packed with antioxidants that boost collagen and even out skin tone — the one I add for shine and to help reduce sun damage and scarring.
Leven Rose Organic Pomegranate Seed Oil
A few drops mixed in with the carrier oils — pairs perfectly with the carrot seed oil for softer hair and skin, and it's the one people talk about most for new growth.
Maple Holistics Rosemary Essential Oil
Thick and heavy, but rich in ricinoleic acid that boosts scalp blood flow and fights dandruff — it's the workhorse of the blend, the one credited most for thickening and strengthening over time.
Organic Cold-Pressed Castor Oil - Heritage Store
Closest match to your scalp's natural oil, so it won't clog pores — soothes irritation and dandruff while keeping the whole blend from feeling greasy or heavy.
Organic Cold-Pressed Jojoba Oil
Rich in vitamin E, the lightest one in the lineup — great for dry, sensitive skin and strengthening hair. I finish with this for shine without weighing anything down.
Handcraft Blends Sweet Almond Oil
Sunlight breaks oils down — amber glass keeps the blend potent, and the droppers make measuring your ratios easy. One pack stores months of batches.
Vivaplex 2oz Amber Glass Bottles w/ Droppers
This is how the blend actually reaches the scalp instead of just coating your hair — fill it, part, squeeze along the roots, done. No mess, no waste.
Salon Care Root Comb Applicator - 4 Ounce
Two minutes with this after applying the oil gets the blood flowing — the difference between oiling your hair and actually treating your scalp. Also makes wash day better.
Maxsoft Hair Scalp Massager Shampoo Brush
The finisher — a few drops in every batch. Vitamin E is what keeps a homemade blend from going rancid, and it doubles the skin benefits.
Vitamin E Oil — 100% Pure & Natural
The blend works overnight — a cotton pillowcase drinks it before your hair does. Satin keeps the oil where it belongs and stops breakage while you sleep.
Satin Pillowcase (2-Pack)
Regular towels rough up the cuticle and undo everything the oil just did. Microfiber dries gently — no frizz, no snapping.
Microfiber Hair Towel
Wood spreads the oil evenly from root to tip with zero static, and it never snags. Works on the beard too.
Sandalwood Wide-Tooth Comb
Sounds trivial until you pour castor oil into a 2oz bottle without one. These fit the amber bottles perfectly — zero mess, zero waste.
Stainless Mini Funnels (6-Pack)
The step most men skip. Oil the scalp, tie it down, sleep — cotton steals the blend before it works, satin keeps it on the job all night.
