This info is from the the illustrated encyclopedia of essential oils by julia lawless.
the following eo's are for haircare, thinning and baldness:
west indian bay, white birch, cedarwood (atlas, texas and virginian), chamomile (german and roman), grapefruit, juniper, patchouli, rosemary, sage (clary and spanish), yarrow, ylang ylang

the proper dilution ratio:

20-60 drops in 3.5oz (100ml) carrier oil
7-25 drops in 1oz (25ml) carrier oil
3-5 drops in 1tsp (5ml) carrier oil

hope this helps:grin:

Thanks. I would like to get into using the essential oils. I have a friend that mixes her own and she comes up with some great concoctions.

That's a pretty good list. I would also include Lavendar and Carrot oil. I'm not sure if all of those Cedarwoods are good for hair. I think the Atlas kind is the better type.
