So I bought some rosemary essential oil last week - my very first. I looove the smell and am quite excited to have it.

Anyhoo, I've had a recipe for a rosemary oiling treatment saved on my hard drive for ages, waiting for a chance to use it. However, the only other ingredient is olive oil, which is waaay to greasy. I only have a small vial of the rosemary, so I'm trying to conserve it and don't want to use up too much with experimentation. Does anyone have any good recommendations of how I could use it? Preferably something that doesn't include another type of oil, since I don't have anything else and probably won't until I get a job and some cash in my pocket 

Thanks!

Put it in jojoba oil or any other carrier oil that you like 

Thanks for the ideas!

Aphrodite, I tried exactly what you described when I first used it (even used an organic shampoo), and still ended up greasy. 

I did a chamomile rinse last night and added a couple drops of rosemary; it smelled divine and worked well. I'll see what else I can do with it.

It's so weird how one thing works for some and not for others.... perhaps olive oil is just too much for your hair - it might be worth mixing rosemary with jojoba (that makes my hair scrunchy but lots of people love it) maybe that would be lighter and less greasy. ??? and do a scalp massage with that.... mixing rosemary with chamomile sounds nice - I might have to try that

keep experimenting
