Beard Growth:
Peppermint Essential Oil (PEO) is one of the most well-known essential oils for the purpose of beard growth.
There are many wild claims online about its effectiveness, and surprisingly some of these are backed up by scientific evidence.
Peppermint essential oil when used at a 3% dilution has been found to stimulate the hair follicles, which means that it could potentially also help with beard growth.
Peppermint oil works by improving the circulation to the facial hair area, by increasing the size of the facial hair follicles, and by boosting growth factors inside the follicle.
How to Make your Own 3% Peppermint Oil?
DIY peppermint oil for beard growth:
To make your own beard stimulating oil with 3% PEO dilution, just like the one that was used in the study above, all you need are three things.
1) Jojoba oil (carrier).
2) Pure peppermint oil.
3) 1 oz. dark dropper-bottle.
4) Next, you just need to mix the oils into the bottle with the correct ratios.
Start by filling your dropper-bottle to almost brim with jojoba oil (leave some room for the dropper).
Next up, add approximately 18 drops of peppermint essential oil into the bottle, close the cap, and shake it.
Considering that each 1 oz bottle holds in about 600 drops, adding 18 from the PEO should be close to a 3% dilution.
Now your peppermint oil for beard growth is ready. Use it normally as a beard oil or on your face 1-2 times per day to stimulate growth.
NOTE: Never apply 100% pure peppermint oil directly into the skin. It’s extremely potent and volatile, and will certainly burn your skin and cause discomfort.
Always dilute essential oils when making DIY beard oil or other beard care products.
