    If I may - what have others outside the USA had to pay for shipping?

    For me, it will cost 21$ CAD for a half ounce bottle of oil. I was to try this stuff so bad but this has stopped me from doing so. *sigh*

    I hear that once upon a time, shipping prices from the US to Canada used to be FAR more reasonable. Then a few years ago, apparently the prices basically quadrupled for whatever stupid reason. I hate to say it, but it feels to me like they're just totally greedy, and I highly resent them for it...

    Also, there seems to be a great variation in price between every state - in some I'll pay 8$ or so for a small items. In others, like Minnesota, I have to pay over 20$ for something the exact same size and weight.

    Aw man that stinks about the shipping.

    One happy thing about being here close to Nightblooming! Well in the same country anyway.
    Hubby got a long treatment of combing and massaging some triple oil in yesterday. He says his scalp "feels better today."

    It's going to cost me about $20 CAD too, which is why I'm just having her make a custom blend for me. I'm also going to wait until I have the money to buy other items from her that I want (such as hair salves). I'm basically going to buy enough to last me half a year to save on shipping.

    Same here. Truthfully, a lot of the other good hair product makers that people talk about here (ie Toadstool Soaps) won't even ship outside the USA at all, so I shouldn't complain I guess. At least it is within reach! I don't have enough funds right now to get enough stuff to make the shipping worth it, but I think I will when it becomes an option!

    On an unrelated note, what blends are supposed to be good for hair growth and/or very dry ends?

    I would honestly just message her and ask for her opinion on it. She can give you a list of what oils she can recommend in a blend for you and you can pick for yourself specifically. She was very nice and informative when I asked her and she won't pressure you to order right away. I'm ordering two separate blends, one for my scalp and one for my ends, but I guess you could probably pick oils that would be good for both. I'm just picky so I didn't want to order a full-size blend only to find out I didn't like it, since the shipping is just too expensive to order samples first.

    Augh, I just got the Raven Queen's Chosen & Medusa Snake Oil blends... love them both to pieces. I could huff dragonsblood all day, but I like how RQC is toned down and balanced out with other scents (including patchouli ). And MSO is bright and light and invigorating (so good for summertime).
    Onwards.

    I spilled some of my medusa oil bottle because I'm a klutzy idiot.. AUUGH!

    Oh well, it wasn't too much. And now my desk smells really nice!

    Anyway, I am absolutely loving all the oils I got so far! I absolutely adore the soft and sweet yet fresh scent of the Dragon's Blood! I love the Medusa's Snake Oil too, it is fresh and crisp without being pungent or overpowering. The Triple Moon oil is wonderful too, but I find the scent to be quite a bit sharper than the Medusa's Snake oil - the the tea tree oil hints are very noticeable, but I find it doesn't smell so much once actually applied to hair. It's great for days I don't feel like having quite so much of a scent

    The Tenderhead Tranquility and Hanoki's Hair Growth oils will require more testing though - my roots tend to be quite oily naturally so I can only use them as a pre-wash treatment. They are lovely but I'm not sure if I will buy them again, because I don't know how much I really need them, or will benefit from them. Like I said though, I need more time to really assess the results!

    I'll definitely be stocking up on more Triple Moon, Dragon's Blood and Medusa when I get the chance though! Anyone recommend any other custom blends to try? I am very tempted by the Raven's Queen, it sounds lovely!

    It turns out I could afford a 4oz custom oil blend after all, yay!

    I decided to try out this:
    Primary Oils: Sunflower oil, Avocado oil
    Secondary Oils: Argan, Jojoba, Rosehip
    Essential Oils: Ylang-Ylang, Jasmine, Hinoki, Sweet Orange, Grapefruit

    I can't wait to see how it feels on my hair and smells... I love the jasmine + orange combo.
