Always dilute rosemary oil with a carrier oil before applying it to your scalp. Good carrier oils include coconut oil, olive oil, or jojoba oil. A common ratio is 3-5 drops of rosemary oil per tablespoon of carrier oil.

Apply the diluted mixture to your scalp using your fingertips and gently massage for 5-10 minutes. This helps stimulate blood circulation, promoting hair growth.

After massaging, you can leave the oil on your scalp for at least 30 minutes. For added benefits, consider wrapping your hair in a warm towel to enhance absorption. You can also leave it overnight and wash it out in the morning.

You can also add a few drops of rosemary oil directly to your shampoo or conditioner. This allows for regular use without the need for additional time.

Before using rosemary oil, perform a patch test on a small area of skin to check for any allergic reactions. If any irritation occurs, discontinue use.
