Tea and coffee are not just energising beverages. They are also trending natural remedies for hair growth. Both contain caffeine, antioxidants, and other nutrients that can benefit your scalp and strands. Tap to read!
Role of Caffeine
More caffeine is in coffee than in tea. Hence, it increases blood flow and stimulates the follicle for hair growth.
Exfoliation
Coffee grounds can exfoliate scalp buildup. Tea cleans well enough but lacks the gritty texture for intensive exfoliation.
Antioxidants
Green tea and coffee contain numerous antioxidants that help combat inflammation. Thus, protect hair follicles and encourage healthier scalp conditions.
Scalp Health
Tea acts to soothe irritation and to fight dandruff. Coffee can dry out the irritated scalp if excessively used.
Hair Strengthening
Black tea does so by strengthening the roots so that shedding is reduced. Coffee does so by adding shine and fullness, but it is an extremely short-term solution.
