Cedarwood is known to cleanse the scalp, by removing excess oil,and dandruff. Oil can be diluted in regular shampoo and conditioner. Alternatively a few drops in a carrier oil such as coconut oil, and massage into scalp for a few minutes. By adding combined oils of Thyme, Lavender, or Rosemary to purify and increase circulation to the scalp. This has been known to encourage new growth and enhances the appearance of more voluminous hair by using for several months. I also will add this to my Beard Oils for the same reasons.
