Ever since I’ve met my husband he has always shaved his head. One day I asked him why, and he replied; after I realized that I had some bald patches I decided to just shave it all off. He never thought about letting his hair grow out again until I asked him if he would want to try it with an Essential oil hair growth serum which could support hair growth again.
Surprisingly he was up for it, so I made him a little bottle of Essential Oil Hair Growth Serum which he applies every night ever since.

Rosemary
Rosemary Oil is not only good for hair growth, but also for soothing itchy skin.
