This recipe found it's way to me at a time when my hair was falling out in a BAD way. So much hair down the drain. I probably even cried once or twice.  I was so caught up in the early stages of first time motherhood that I actually didn't notice it right away...that is, until the photos started to roll in. Wow. It happened fast. Like overnight fast. As we Mamas know, all the extra 'me time' no longer existed.  I need a solution that was easy and to the point (and it smells great so that's a bonus).
As I noted in my Instagram stories, it wasn't the only thing that I used on the road to recovery.  I faithfully take my cod liver oil every day and I know that this has really helped to slow my hair loss. I find that the oils help to produce new growth. I know the difference between the two because I had used both separately at one point. 
Side note: I used this spray for about 2 months consistently before I really started to see some results. Essential oils can take their time and affect every person differently. 
2nd side note: I love to use this at night as cedarwood and lavender are wonderful for aiding in a full night sleep. Cedarwood actually helps to produce melatonin naturally sooooo...win.

Fill 2 oz glass spray bottle with distilled water
Add 8-10 drops each lavender, cedarwood and rosemary.
Shake well before use. 
Apply to roots after shower and/ or before bed. 

This DIY is so easy. It took me all of 45 second to pull it together and this bottle lasts me about a month. That is, if I actually get to wash my hair on a regular basis...because toddler. 
I'm not going to bore you with 30 pictures of me dropping oils into a bottle.  It's really easy people. Fill it with water and top it up with some oils. Boom. Project complete. I am so not into laborious DIYs. It's not my game. ​

While the Starter Kit does have Lavender it does not have Cedarwood or Rosemary.  However, at $14.00 and $19.75 respectively, they would be a great add on if you wanted to go that route. Simply buying them individually is always an option too!

Here it goes!

1) Cedarwood. I add 2 drops of cedarwood with 3 drops of Lavender to my Dew Drop Diffuser every night and sleep like a baby.  For those mama's who are experiencing hair loss, like I did, you can add a drop to your shampoo before applying.  It works miracles, I'm telling you. 

2) Lavender. A staple in the Essential Oil world. Such a diverse oil.  It should be in your collection.
 
3) Thieves. It's a unique blend that only YL makes. The key ingredients are cinnamon, eucalyptus and clove among others and is fantastic for immune support and household cleaning. In fact, they've developed an entire line of household products around this essential oil. 

4) Citrus Fresh. Diffused on it's own or with peppermint, lavender, frankincense, etc. It smells like it sounds x100.

5) Stress Away. YOU HAVE TO GET THIS OIL!! It's been out of stock for SO LONG because no one can get enough! It's got vanilla, lime, cedarwood, & vanilla in it (among others) and it smells like a dream. This one is a must!

6) Frankincense. So many uses. smells fantastic and is great blended with other oils. Not cheap but worth the investment. They do have 5ml option online.

7) Peppermint. I'm a huge fan of everything peppermint and it's a reasonable price. Plus, it's very versatile which makes it a staple in our house. 

8) Northern Lights Black Spruce. ​ We live in the North and the smell of pine trees is just a regular thing for us but HOT DAMN does this oil smell good! It's very potent, as most oils are, and you generally only need 2-3 drops in your diffuser to really make an impact. The best part? It's made in Northern BC! Fort Nelson to be exact. A cool 10 hour drive North from my hometown. 

Obviously you don't have to start out with a bang and get all of them at once, but I think this is a good list to refer to when you start your collection.  I could go on and on with this list but for the sake of simplicity in this complex essential oil world, I have kept it to 8.  If you want some more ideas, please contact me through the contact page or on Instagram.
