Use aromatherapy for hair loss
to take some of the stress out of your maternity wedding preparations

Pamper Yourself with Aromatherapy for Hair Loss!

A soothing aromatherapy scalp massage every couple of weeks can help you feel good and it will keep your hair and scalp in great condition.

Aromatherapy is the ultimate relaxing experience, combining the soothing effects of touch and smell.

Aromatherapy is quick and easy to do PLUS it's a super-cheap home remedy that you can schedule in around all your wedding preparations!

Mixing your own aromatherapy oils is easy!

Simply mix a few drops of your favourite aromatherapy oil with half a cup of a carrier oil.

"A carrier oil can be almost any unperfumed vegetable oil, such as soya, safflower or sunflower oil, though those used most often in aromatherapy are Sweet Almond and Grapeseed Oil"
from Aromatherapy an A-Z: The Most Comprehensive Guide to Aromatherapy Ever Published by Patricia Davis.

Massage the oil very gently into your scalp, right through to the hair ends, then wrap your hair in a warm towel and relax with your feet up.

Aromatherapy Oils and Pregnancy

These aromatherapy oils are generally considered to be safe to use during pregnancy, however, it's always worth checking with your doctor / midwife if there are any reasons why you should avoid them!

• Lavender Not only useful as a massage oil!
  'Lavender Oil is very useful for childbirth. It makes for a speedy delivery without increasing the severity of the contractions.'
  from Aromatherapy - The Pregnancy Book by Jennie Supper
• Neroli Calming citrus floral scent.
• Patchouli Sweet, musky-scented oil also great for treating dandruff and cellulite!
• Sandalwood Sweet, woody oil used as a fragrance and as a scalp treatment since ancient times

My favorite is lavender ... just before bed ... it always helps me sleep like a baby! My husband too!
