Rosemary water benefits for hair

Some people claim that using homemade rosemary water as a hair rinse promotes hair growth. Rosemary increases blood flow and stimulates circulation thus promoting hair to grow. The main ingredient responsible for hair growth is ursolic acid that one can also find in the peels of the fruit. It brings more oxygen and nutrients to the hair follicles thus creating an ideal environment for hair to grow faster and regrow again.

it can also be used in the form of rosemary tincture

Likewise, rosemary infused oil is used to improve the appearance of the beard.  

Moreover, Rosemary is known for its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, which help to nourish and soothe hair follicles. It also prevents the dry flakes of the scalp that cause dandruff.

This Rosemary rinse can also be used to darken hair.  Many women use it to cover the gray in their hair.

Rosemary hair rinse makes your hair soft and shiny and gives them a healthy appearance.

How to use rosemary water hair rinse

Rosemary Hair rinse

Use this rosemary rinse after washing your hair with shampoo bar or liquid shampoo and conditioner while still in the bathroom. Just pour the homemade hair rinse over your hair and leave it in. Don’t rinse it off. 

If you want to multiply the effect use this herbal hair growth serum afterwards. It restores nutrients to your strands and scalp and strengthens the roots that ultimately increase hair production and thickness.

Place a few drops of hair growth oil on your fingertips and gently massage into your hair and scalp. Wrap your hair in a warm plain cotton cloth and leave it overnight or several hours. Wash it off the next day.

Every time you just want to dampen your hair over the tube and go. A small spray bottle comes handy to avoid over spray.

If you suffer from an itchy scalp or hair breakage, add apple cider vinegar to rosemary water. After shampooing and conditioning, pour the mixture over your hair evenly, working into your scalp. Let it sit for a few minutes and rinse it out.

Rosemary water can slightly darken your hair over time if used regularly. It can also cover your gray hair. On the other hand if you wish to lighten your hair don’t use this rosemary hair rinse very often, just once a month.

Rosemary water for skin

Spray it over your face and use it as astringent.

Rosemary hair rinse possesses astringent properties and is therefore useful in toning slightly oily complexions. Its uplifting scent makes it ideal for use before time of intense concentration.

The anti-inflammatory properties of rosemary help the skin to reduce swelling and puffiness as well as heal burns and soothe the skin. I love to make DIY footh bath with Epsom salt, baking soda and vinegar to soak my feet.

Inhaling the aroma will help you to fight respiratory infections because of its antiseptic properties.
