    Hi,

    Castor oil is known to be good for hair. Also I read that, esides primrose evening oil, borage oil (huile de bourrache/ don't really know the englis translation) is also very good, cause it contains DGA - DGLA. Beware that rosemary oil is an essential oil, you must not put too much drops (gouttes) on your concotion, essential oils are powerful.
    Thank you for sharing. I did some research into Borage oil and I'm very interested. I'm thinking of making a mixture of Borage Oil and Rosemary Essential Oil, with Pumpkin Seed Oil as a carrier for the two. Thoughts?

    I have had trouble finding a Borage oil source that I trust. Can anyone make a recommendation?

    I think it's a good mixture. The thing is you have to put it on your scalp often (at least 3 times a week i'd say). You should add castor oil or put it alone on your scalp too. Castor oil = PGE2 (PGE2 have been showed to be higher in fullhead scalps, low in balding sclaps).

    Do you know Aroma-zone ? They have a lot of oils and it's cheap and natural.

    Now I need a source of Castor oil, too.

    I saw your link to Aroma-Zone, but it's all in French and I don't know how to find anything. Would you be willing to direct me to the items I need (or give me the French names)? Thank you!

    Castor oil : huile de ricin
    evening primrose oil : huile d'onagre
    Borage oil : huile de bourrache
    rosemary oil : huile essentielle de romarin

    Also good and cheap : maca vital

    They don't have pumpkin seed oil, but you can easily find it in an organic store.

    You're wonderful! I just received my oils from Aroma Zone . Very low prices indeed and good variety. Shipping cost more than the oils

    Question - what is the point of Pumpkin Seed Oil (topical)? The castor oil I bought is regular Castor Oil, not essential Castor Oil, so can't I just use the Castor Oil as the carrier oil for the rosemary and borage?
