15 Healthy Uses for Tea Tree Oil

2.     Hair Treatment

Tea tree oil’s application as a hair treatment is a great healthy application of this neat little oil. Highly effective in treating a number of hair and scalp complaints, tea tree oil may be able to replace a good number of expensive, over the counter treatments. The fact that is all-natural is an extra tick in its box. Dandruff can be fought off and kept away with the topical use of tea tree oil, either on its own or when mixed up in your usual choice of shampoo.

The way to mix should be by adding several drops of tea tree oil into a base liquid of normal shampoo, with the amount of tea tree oil being determined by experimentation, to see which amount is enough to make a difference. The itchy and dry scalp that usually accompanies dandruff is treated effectively by the use of tea tree oil, and amazingly it can also be used as a natural treatment for the prevention of head lice.
