Put the mix in the tub of warm water and swish it around. child could stay in the tub for maybe 10 minutes. do not use a lot of TT oil because it has to be processed by the liver and it could overburden the liver and cause some problems. but 6 drops in a tub is fine. all oils can affect a person with seizure disorder. and last if you are pregnant don't swish the water with your hand as all oils can possibly cause a problem. other than those 3 issues oils are really safe and TT along with Lavender are among the safest. read up on TT oil at Camdengrey.com  . $- P cn`dp0% 00BB .$0 ` $0(--%%%,-$! )!,bp $ Posted By: lifelovebeauty Date Posted: Dec 3, 2008 at 9:28pm I really like a Paul Mitchell shampoo and conditioner set with tea tree oil...

Posted By: essentialoils Date Posted: Mar 3, 2011 at 8:59pm Tea tree oil is primarily antiseptic in nature and is a recommended bactericide and fungicide. It is therefore that this oil is often used to make tea tree shampoo as it readily heals scalp irritations and infections.

Posted By: buzzlily Date Posted: Nov 9, 2011 at 1:20am hi, Tea tree oil is the powerhouse of natural remedies. http://teatreeoilreviews.com - Posted By: chameleongirl Date Posted: Nov 15, 2011 at 12:38am I buy natural shampoos at the health store with tea tree oil and will add some of the essential oil to bath water, just for the aromatherapy.  I've also applied to my scalp, and this has helped myself and my kids from getting head lice when there were a lot of kids and parents getting it in our community.  For some reason, lice do not like tea tree oil.  I'm not sure how effective it is in treating a case of head lice, though it has preventing a recurrence of it once we treated our heads.  A friend of mine swears by coconut oil for lice treatment also, which she used for her son who has dreadlocks.  It sure beats having to use the store-bought pesticide treatments, although there are a lot of new natural options available too. Tea tree oil is also a good antiseptic, at least this is what I've read.  Posted By: karengriffin Date Posted: Nov 22, 2011 at 10:40pm Ive heard a lot about tea tree oil's properties for acne-prone skin and to cure such problems. I've heard them for facials but less for hair. But I guess it could work. Print | Close Window
