If you purchsase all the carrier oils and the essential oils, it'll run you between $60 - $100. The good news is that the ingredients, once complied at home, last a really, really long time.
If you prefer to spend less $$ up front, you can get a month supply of the Scottish Study forumla already mixed up in a dropper bottle at:

I've purchased from this site before and they're legit and the product is good.
If you're one of those do-it-yourselfers and want to get everything and mix it up yourself at home - here ya go . . .

My concoction is called Emussential Oil Treatment.
The recipe calls for 23ml of emu mixed with 2 drops of Thyme (note that it should be Thymus Vulgaris),
and 3 drops of Rosemary (should be Rosemarinus Officinalis),
and 2 drops Cedarwood (Cedrus Atlantica) and 3 drops Lavender (Lavandula Angustifolia).
These are the precise essential oils used in the study.
There are many different types of species of these plants and I am not sure that they all are the same.
So I recommend the precise species noted above.
The amount of drops of essential oil used is based on the same amount applied to the carrier oils in the study
(carrier oils used in the actual study were 20ml of grapeseed and 3ml of jojoba.)
If you go to VitaminUSA.com and search for each of these oils, you will find them.
The only exception is the lavender. Vitamin USA only has lavandula officinalis, and not angustifolia.
However, they had the right varieties of the other three. So, since I had the other three,
I opted for the lavandula officinalis instead of paying shipping charges somewhere else for just the Lavender.
The price is reasonable. I paid $37 plus shipping for all of these.
It is a one ounce supply of each. I usually use close to about 1ml of emu a night since I apply it all over the
top of my head. So with three drops of essential oil per 20ml of emu, I will use about 3 drops every 20 days.
There are about 1000-1300 drops in an ounce bottle, depending on viscosity.
So each 20 day refill uses three drops. Therefore 1,000/3 = 333 refills.
Each refill lasts me 20 days. So I have (333x20) 6,600 days of usage.
That translates into about 18.3 years of usage.
Better put, it will cost ½ of 1 penny per day to use the oils. There can’t be a cheaper hair loss remedy than that.

The author above instead uses 23 ml straight emu oil for his carrier and adds the essential oils to that.
What I've been doing is mixing up:
10 ml grapeseed oil, 10 ml emu oil, and 3 ml jojoba oil - and adding my essential oils to that.
