Turn Your Hair Oil Formula Into a Real Batch

Whether you're creating a simple hair oil blend or an Ayurvedic/botanical-infused oil, this calculator helps take the guesswork out of measuring and scaling your formula.

Start by entering your desired batch size and adjusting the percentages for your base oil, supporting oil, antioxidant, optional fragrance or aromatic phase, and any additional ingredients. The calculator automatically converts your formula into grams, milliliters (mL), and US fluid ounces (fl oz) while helping you keep your finished formula at 100%.

Want to create an herbal-infused oil? Use the optional Ayurvedic/Botanical Infusion section to select the carrier oils you plan to infuse, choose whether you're working with powdered, cut/crushed, or whole dried herbs, and enter your desired herb load. The calculator will determine the amount of dry botanical material needed and your approximate oil-to-herb ratio.

Because infused herbs are typically strained or filtered from the oil, they are calculated separately from your finished 100% formula.
