Your Blend Herbal Hair Rinse
- Description
- Ingredients
The 100g bag would be enough herbs for 25+ rinses, 40g should give you around 10 rinses, and the tea bags - well, you'll use one each rinse. Remember to compost your discarded herbs and tea bags!
This tisane rinse is not meant to be drunk as a tea - it's not been balanced for flavour, and some herbs have not been approved for ingestion by pregnant or lactating women or those with medical conditions. As with all herbal concoctions, seek medical advice if you are unsure about using herbs.

How to Use
Directions for a Simple Detangler Hair Tea Rinse:
- Fill muslin bag or infuser with 2 tablespoons to 1/4 cup of herbs.
- Pour 1 1/4 cups or more of boiling water over herbal bag.
- Steep for at least 30 minutes covered.
- Remove herbs from the tea and make sure it’s not too hot.
- Use a Whole Head Rinse:
- As you slowly pour the tea over your wet head, massage the infusion into your hair and scalp.
- Keep a large bowl under your head to catch the liquid and reapply several times.
- Gently rinse it out with cool water or, for extra conditioning benefits, just leave it in and towel dry hair.
- Comb from the bottom up using a large-toothed comb.
- Spray:
- Pour the tea into a spray bottle.
- Spray tea on freshly washed hair and comb through.
- Do not rinse out, just style as usual.
Always make and store herbal hair preparations in nonreactive containers. Refrigerate leftover hair tea for 7 -10 days in a clean airtight container. Do not refrigerate tea in an aluminum container.
