Rosemary Water Hair Rinse

So I started doing this rosemary rinse 3 weeks ago and my hair is loving it! Nia asked me to share it so here it is, I know you ladies will love it too!

For this rinse I use freshly cut rosemary from my Rosemary plant, if you don't have a plant you can use dried rosemary instead.

Step 1: In a small pot boil about 3 cups of water, once water reaches a medium boil add your rosemary branches to the water and let simmer for 20 mins. Add or take away as much water as you desire. I make a larger amount to have some left over to put in my water bottle for the week.

Step 2: Turn heat off, remove rosemary from water and discard it. Allow the rosemary water to cool before use.

Step 3: Do this over your kitchen sink or tub. Place a large bowl in sink to catch the water as it runs off of your hair. hold you head over the bowl and pour the rosemary water all over your hair, repeat this as many times as you like ( I tend to get pretty carried away because it feels O-So-Good on my scalp).

 

Benefits of Rosemary:
Rosemary controls oil production in the scalp, thereby controlling dandruff. It is also claimed to reverse the effects of graying in hair and repress excessive hair loss. Another benefit of rosemary for hair is it prevents pre-mature balding by stimulating the hair roots and bulbs and increasing blood flow to the head. This promotes hair growth and strengthens your hair, preventing breakage. To give your hair a shiny luster, apply 1 part rosemary oil to 3 parts coconut oil and massage deeply into your scalp for a soothing effect.

I love this rinse, and so does my hair! It really something that I will be making apart of my weekly regi! Try it and let me know what you think.
