I'm gonna try this tonight! How much oil to EO do you guys do? I think a conditioning treatment with the eo would be nice.
I loved the Peppermint oil/water mixture last year but my seborrhoic dermatitis came back due to the oil so I stopped it.
I just bought a mint plant because I want to try extracting leaves in apple cider vinegar. The plant still needs to grow bigger for me to get more leaves.

I use pepermint and green tea 1:1 rinse as it helps to keep oily scalp clean for longer. I haven't noticed any hair stimulating effects though, maybe cause the tea has not enough eo in it?
That's a shame as green tea is also meant to enhance growth. I think you are right about the dried peppermint leaf, it won't have that much oil in it as essential oils in a bottle are very concentrated plus they are volatile so evaporate from the herb easily during drying and if my memory is correct the concentration of peppermint EO was 3%. The only way to know for sure how much of the oil you are getting it to use just the essential oil.
I do still use peppermint oil as well as others plus various other oils including some Ayurvedic blends so I can't say that any one thing in particular is helping but I'm happy with my growth these days and in the last few months I have noticed my roots getting longer much quicker as well as the length seeming to suddenly reach much further down my back to about waist length in what seems a short space of time.
I shall know for certain after I next henna then can see how long it takes for my roots to grow long enough to notice.
The heart would have no rainbow, had the eyes no tears.
I need to revive this thread! how to use it? I have a bottle, I found some bloggers receipt , she puts it in acv rinse along side TTEO and Lavender EO..It made my scalp itchy. I don't know if it the PEO, cause I used it before in a shampoo, against dandruff, and after some time my scalp is itchy. Is it safe to use? If so, how to use it?

Grow grow grow, where it stops no body knows.
I use a few drops of peppermint oil in my scalp oil-Jamaican Black Castor Oil base, peppermint oil, rosemary oil and MSM powder. Scalp massage every night. My hairline is filling in nicely with this combination...peppermint is so tingly-I love it!
Oh! That's interesting. Congrats on finding a good scalp oil mix.
I wonder if its the increased heat/blood flow that makes this work?
I found this:
"Menthol, the main component in peppermint oil, has been shown to increase blood flow to the area where it is applied. A study in Microvascular Research found that a 4 percent menthol solution caused blood vessels to widen, which increases blood flow."

I did scalp massages with peppermint infused oil before I even knew that it was great for growth.
I think a doctor told me to put it on my forehead for migranes. I love the fresh feeling of the peppermint on the scalp along with a warm feeling of blood flow. Yes! I have done this and will do this forever!
