Rosemary water is a powerful natural remedy that promotes hair growth, strengthens hair follicles, and adds shine. Packed with antioxidants, it can help improve circulation to the scalp, reduce dandruff, and invigorate tired hair. This simple DIY rosemary water spray is an easy way to incorporate its benefits into your hair care routine. Whether you’re looking to enhance hair thickness, prevent hair loss, or simply freshen up your locks, this rosemary-infused solution is the perfect addition to your regimen.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary leaves (or 1 tablespoon dried rosemary)
- 2 cups water
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (optional, for extra scalp benefits)
Instructions
- Prepare the Rosemary: If using fresh rosemary, chop the sprigs to release more of the beneficial oils. If using dried rosemary, simply measure out the amount.
- Boil the Water: In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, add the rosemary leaves.
- Simmer: Reduce the heat and let the rosemary simmer for about 15–20 minutes, allowing it to steep and infuse the water with its oils and nutrients.
- Cool & Strain: Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the rosemary water to cool completely. Once cool, strain out the rosemary leaves.
- Add Apple Cider Vinegar (Optional): If you wish to add extra benefits, mix in 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to the strained rosemary water. This helps balance the scalp’s pH and improves shine.
- Transfer to a Spray Bottle: Pour the cooled rosemary water into a spray bottle for easy application.
How to Use:
- After washing your hair, spray the rosemary water onto your scalp and hair, gently massaging it in.
- You can also use it as a leave-in treatment. Mist your hair throughout the day for a refreshing boost.
- For best results, use the spray 2–3 times a week to promote healthier, shinier, and thicker hair.
