Diclofenac gel to regrow hair on bald head and beard

wester130

some research i am doing on essential oils and vasodilation

rosemary and menthol are not potent, neither is euclayptus, neither make the top 10

patchouliguaiols ,
citral,
carvacrol + thymol ,
eugenol
are the most potent vasodilators if you are looking at isolated chemicals

for patchouliguaiols, spikenard or simply patchouli oil would work

for citral, lemongrass or lemon verbena

for carvacrol + thymol , - oregano and thyme

for eugenol - clove essential oil would work

ginger, cinnamon, capscium, rosemary, menthol don't make the top 10 list.
rosemary for hair is the biggest scam going, look at the science, the chemicals in rosemary do not vasdodilate,

@wester130 More horseshit from Big Rosemary.

Rosemary (or sage) is not about vasodilation but about powerful anti-inflammatory activity by its diterpene carnosic acid, which is an antagonist to the human VDR and thus innate immunity. It may therefore work topically (to suppress symptoms for temporary healing but not to cure) for psoriasis and the like.

@CrumblingCookie

It also kills bacteria and fungus and parasites (e.g. demodex mites). The vasodilation was never the main use for me.

And who cares if it's not the most potent vasodilator? It still produces some vasodilation. That's just a plus.

Anti-inflammatory + anti-bacteria/fungus/parasite + vasodilation. No way that's not going to be beneficial to your hair health/growth.

@wester130 Interesting about the strength of the oils, as far as vasodilation goes. I find oregano to be dangerously strong, so that is no surprise it's on the list. I have two versions of oregano oil, full strength and diluted to 25%. I accidentally put the full strength on my skin once, and that was interesting, to say the least. Due to that, I put a white sticker on the cap, with a large red circle, and I added red stripes down the front of the bottle. Same company, same size bottle, with the only distinction being the 25% dilution in small print, until I added these.

@Mossy dont you dilute it yourself?? for example one drop per 50ml liquid?

i don't understand - you used the oil straight?

wester130

here is what i am doing now

centella extract 50ml

separely mix polysorbate 20 drops
thyme oil 4 drops
lemon myrtle 4 drops
patchouli 4 drops
rose geranium 4 drops
cinnamon bark 2 drops

mix this into the centella extract liquid.

mixes perfectly, not oily at all. basically a water solution

so I get the benefit of centella and essential oils

@wester130 I have two versions. One came diluted, at 25%. The other is 100%, not diluted. And, to qualify me even further for a Darwin award, I didn't even mean to grab oregano oil, but a different oil. I put the 100% on my skin.

wester130

@Mossy so the capsules of oregano they sell for candida - are they 100% oil?

As for using the oil topically , in 50ml of aloe juice, I added 4 drops of Polysorbate 20 and thyme oil, which is similarly hot to oregano, and felt a slight burn from it .

this would be about 0.20% strength of the entire bottle.

@wester130 After a quick look, it seems to not be 100% oregano oil in those supplements, but a combination of oils with oregano, like black seed oil, and olive oil.

Hi Guys, ordered caffeine just now and will make conditioner with caffeine/taurine/aspirin/b3. I use essential oil of rosemary daily before bed and microniddling weekly with 1mm deep.

Saw some regrowth, black baby hairs, so it works, but unresolved hypothyroidism and itchiness as a result made me lose them, yep.

planning to dilute them in water higher concentrations and use whenever taking a shower to massage in my head. Any idea what else could be in water base conditioner like this?
