Aloe vera and rosemary are natural powerhouses that can nourish your scalp, strengthen roots, and stimulate hair growth. Here's how to make this easy, nutrient-rich tonic.
INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons dried rosemary , 1/2 cup aloe vera gel 1 cup of water , 1 teaspoon of jojoba oil, 5 drops rosemary essential oil
PREPARE ROSEMARY INFUSION
In 1 cup of water to a boil, add 2 tablespoons of dried rosemary, cover and steep for 10-15 minutes. This infusion creates the herbal base.
ADD ALOE VERA
Mix 1/2 cup fresh aloe vera gel into the rosemary infusion once its cooled. Aloe soothes and hydrates the scalp, promoting healthy growth.
BOOST WITH JOJOBA OIL
Stir in 1 teaspoon of jojoba oil. Jojoba mimics the scalp’s natural sebum, balancing oil production and nourishing hair follicles for thicker growth.
ENHANCE WITH ROSEMARY ESSENTIAL OIL
5 drops rosemary oil for extra stimulation and scalp circulation (which helps stimulate growth) and increases the tonic's ability to boost growth.
APPLY AND MASSAGE
Wet your hair and pour the tonic all over it, work the tonic into your scalp for 3-5 minutes. It allows for better absorption, and it also increases blood flow to the hair follicles.
STUDY FINDINGS
