Why your scalp loves rosemary
Benefits of rosemary for a sensitive, itchy scalp
Rosemary is said to have several antiseptic properties that can help with a sensitive, itchy scalp. The herb is also said to have benefits such as:
- Improving blood circulation in the scalp, which in turn can stimulate hair growth
- Soothing a sensitive scalp and acting as an antioxidant
- Possibly reducing hair loss
How to make your own rosemary water for your scalp
You’ll need:
- 750 ml water
- 10 whole sprigs of rosemary
- 4 sprigs of mint (optional)
Here’s how:
- Bring the water to the boil and add the rosemary and mint.
- Leave to simmer for an hour. The water should take on a red/purple tint.
- Let the infusion cool, then pour the water through a sieve into a spray bottle.
- Spray the water onto your scalp and massage it in with your fingers or a scalp brush. There’s no need to rinse it out. Then style your hair as usual.
