Lavender Conditioner as a Kids Hair Detangler
“Instead of the detangler I had been using on my kids’ hair, I decided to use a spray bottle and put just a little Young Living Lavender Volume Conditioner in it with some hot water to dissolve it completely. It worked wonderfully and I have now eliminated one more of the harmful product my kids are exposed to.” ~ Melissa S.
Lavender Conditioner as a Shaving Cream
“I spread a little Lavender Volume Conditioner and a little warm water all over my legs as a shaving cream. It leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth!” ~ Judith C.
Lavender & Frankinsence for Depression
“I have had problems with depression and anxiety for much of my life. I discovered that using 1 part Lavender to 2 parts Frankincense is very helpful for moments of particular discomfort. I put the mixture on the bottoms of my feet, on my chest, wrists, ears, back of neck, and the palms of my hands. Then, I cup my hands over my nose and mouth and breathe deeply for several minutes. The unpleasant mood changes to a balanced feeling. My confidence increases and I feel like talking to others (a feeling that disappears when depressed). This relief lasts for a couple of hours.” ~ Elisa M., Psychologist
Dean had this to share with me recently on brain waves…
“Today I was reading about brain waves-beta, alpha, theta, delta, gamma – and noticed some articles mentioned lavender as increasing alpha states, which is a state associated with less stimulation. In addition, peppermint increases beta, thus acting as a stimulant.
In general I am looking for less stimulation, not more, so I was glad to find out I should avoid peppermint.
This afternoon I spent some time smelling the lavender bottle and noticed it helped me mellow out some. That’s all! Just thought I would share with you a small step forward. Take care,” ~ Dean
Joan has this to share on a hair loss study…
“(Hay 1998): Successful treatment of stress related baldness with cedarwood, lavender, thyme, and rosemary oils – which have been anecdotally used to treat baldness for more than 100 years.
Randomized double-blind placebo controlled study in 84 patients with stress related alopecia areata, one who also had male pattern baldness.
The essential oils were massaged into scalp for minimum of 2 minutes every night. Researchers noted “moderate regrowth of hair.” Photographs and computer analysis of tracings of bald patches at 3 and 7 months. Of those who applied the oils, 44% had improvement after 7 months, compared to 15% in the control group. Results statistically significant. No patients experienced negative effects from the oils. Warm best wishes,” ~ Joan
Pen has this to share on her hair rejuvenation…
I too use it [above] and my hair, which seems to never grow, grew 3 inches in 8 weeks. The oils are Cedarwood, Mountain Savory and Lavender and works best when using the YL shampoos and conditioners. Peace,” ~ Pen
Did you know… 
Young Living has 3 different shampoo’s and conditioner’s?
Lavender, Lemon-Sage, and Rosewood.
Young Living Shampoo’s and Conditioner’s…
“I began using Young Living Lavender Shampoo & Conditioner about 10 years ago. I thought I would give the YL Lavender shampoo and conditioner a try since I HAD to buy a different brand of shampoo and conditioner every single month because of build-up on my hair – no matter which brand of all natural shampoo & conditioner I used, I had to switch every single month (which was quite expensive as you might already know).
That was the last time I ever had to switch brands – and I’m saying this about 10 years later! Yes, I am still using the YL shampoo’s and conditioner’s. My favorites are the Lavender and the Rosewood.
Another huge surprise is the fact that the YL hair care products do NOT have nasty chemicals – and – they are extremely concentrated!
In fact, with my long hair (mid-back length) I only need to buy “2″ bottles of YL conditioner a year – that’s right only 2 bottles of YL conditioner a year! That means I’m only spending $40 a year on the best conditioner I’ve ever used!
If this is not insanely healthy for my hair, health and wallet – I don’t know what is!” ~ Evelyn Vincent

Lavender Facts
• Throughout history lavender has symbolized cleanliness. During WW1 when modern antiseptics were depleted, the public was asked to gather up garden lavender so the oil could be used to dress war wounds.
• Lavender comes from the Latin word “lavare”, meaning “to wash.” This is because lavender was used as a ritual bathing herb in ancient Rome. Lavender was recognized for its healing qualities and for washing. It was added to baths to scent the water and was thought to restore the skin. Baths were very important for the Romans–they stayed at the bath houses for several hours and went there daily.
• The lavender seeds for the Young Living farms in Utah and Idaho were originally brought here by Gary Young from Provence, France, the lavender capital of the world. These seeds are pure Lavandula angustifolia, not lavandin, which is a lavender hybrid that is less expensive and less time consuming to extract and to grow (that’s why we recommend not buying and using other brands of lavender the same way we use YL Lavender).
• The Young Living Lavender Farm now collects seeds from our own plants and freezes them through the fall so that when we plant them in our greenhouses (over 70,000 sq.ft. of greenhouse space) in the winter, they are ready to germinate. The staff at the farm know exactly how much water, light, and warmth to give them so they are ready to be transplanted into our fields right after the last freeze.
• France exports to the USA 100 times more lavender oil than they distill. That means the chances of you finding truly pure lavender oil is next to nil. More on distillation.
Many things can damage and dry hair. From over-drying, to chemicals in tap water, to chemicals in our hair care products; all of these and more can lead to dry, frizzy, lifeless looking hair. This easy recipe will help you restore and beautify your hair.
Massage therapy has been shown to have a wide array of benefits. From anxiety reduction and pain relief to improved circulation, the therapeutic effects of touch promote all aspects of wellness. Essential oils further support the benefits of massage therapy by enabling targeted aromatic and topical relief. Certain oil collections, like Young Living’s Raindrop Technique®, combine the art of aromatherapy with the techniques of Vita Flex—rolling and releasing motions that activate the reflex points—and massage.
