You can mix rosemary in two primary ways for potential hair growth benefits: by making rosemary water from dried or fresh leaves, or by mixing rosemary essential oil with hot water.
Method 1: Making Rosemary Water from Leaves
This traditional method involves boiling rosemary leaves with water to create an infused liquid.
Here's how to prepare it:
- Combine Ingredients: Dried or fresh leaves are combined with distilled water.
- Boil: This concoction is brought to a boil.
- Steep: The mixture then steeps for a few hours before being sifted.
This sifting removes the leaf particles, leaving you with rosemary-infused water ready for use.
Method 2: Using Rosemary Essential Oil
If you have rosemary essential oil, mixing it with hot water is another way to create a hair rinse or spray.
The process is straightforward:
- Mix 10-15 drops of oil are mixed with two to three cups of boiling water.
This method provides a quicker way to prepare a rosemary-infused liquid using a concentrated form of the herb.
Both methods offer simple ways to incorporate rosemary into your hair care routine, potentially promoting hair growth and scalp health.
