How do I Combine Essential Oils?
Hey there,
I wanted to use some ginger, lavender and tea tree oil for a 2% dilution with coconut oil for my scalp. I've heard that 2% is a good rule of thumb, but would it be a 2% dilution of each essential oil, for a total of 36 drops per ounce of carrier oil, or a combined dilution of 2% of the total amount of essential oil, or 4 drops of each essential oil per ounce of carrier oil? Thanks!

2% is the combined total. So go with the smaller amount.
Btw, rosemary's also great for the scalp and can add shine to hair, if you were looking to add other EOs.
