How to Make a Rosemary Hair Rinse

Introduction

As part of my regular hair care regimen, I often use a rosemary hair rinse to make my hair shiny. Rosemary is ideal for people who have dark hair because it brings out the highlights. It also helps with dandruff.

The best way to use a hair rinse is to shampoo and condition your hair like normal. After you rinse out the conditioner, pour the rinse over your hair. Don't rinse it out. Just dry and style your hair like normal.

Instructions

  • 1 tbsp. dried rosemary or 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • 1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
