Herbal tea for your hair!
yes you read that correctly, Herbal tea is so beneficial to your body inside and out. I decided to make myself a herbal hair rinse for a little DIY pampering. So what did I use?
Rosemary
I love Rosemary so much, I feel her energy is like a grandmother, she is so wise and once treated with respect she will give back so much more than she gets. Homegrown Rosemary is something that makes my soul sing. Rosemary helps boost circulation to the scalp, she is also been shown in studies the scent of rosemary essential oil can help with exams by stimulating the memory. Rosemary hair rinse is amazing instead of a shampoo if you’re wanting to go a little more greener with your hair care. Amazing for a dry scalp, even if your hair is greasy.
Calendula
I love Calendula, she has been a massive plant ally to me over my years studying plants, she is a big star in my skin care creations. I like to add her to my hair rinse as she is amazing for dry skin and during winter months my skin seems drier so I treat my scalp also. She is also antiseptic, anti fungal, anti microbial (powerhouse).
I left it very simple for the hair rinse as I am using my hot oil hair treatment also, which is packed further with amazing herbal goodness
recipe
1 Tbsp of dried calendula
1TBsp of dried Rosemary
add boiling water and leave aside until cool or at least 15 mins to allow the tea to properly brew, also please always cover your herbal tea to stop the important oils from leaving.
you can use in the shower as you would shampoo or after your normal hair care routine, this recipe is also amazing for beard health, supporting the skin underneath the beard,
enjoy, love
cathy
