Thanks so much for the information. My mother used to rinse my hair in tea when I was little. Now I am transitioning and I am experiencing lots of shedding and breakage (always had this issue but lately seems like more). I will be doing this rinse on wash day. I hope this helps. I did use mayo to condition my hair last week and I do have a lot less shedding then before.

Hi Emme,
You are welcome. Its not a problem if you don’t rinse it out immediately but you can test it on your hair and see if it is okay for you. It can be used instead of water in a moisturizing spray but go easy on the peppermint unless you like the scent in your hair all day. A nicer scent and EO for dry scalp is lavender.

Hi Mishelle, Check out this moisturizing recipe Rosemary and Lavender Moisturizer where it has 1 ½ cup filtered water, substitute with green tea. You can use any other essential oil that you want.

Hi Brenda I was wondering if I can use green tea in my spray bottle for everyday use, along with a few drops of essential and carrier oils. If this is okay how much should I use?

Hi Brenda,

Thanks for this informative post. I have very dry locs and scalp and was wondering if I could use this green tea as a daily moisturizing spray. I was thinking to add the peepermint essential oil like you mention. Do you recommend using it in this way? Would it be a problem if I am not rinsing it out immediately?

Thanks so much!
Emme

You can use it warm, leave it in for a time if you wish (up to half an hour and rinse out). I don’t think your question silly at all. We can all learn from each other.

Hello Brenda,
I was wondering if i had to put on the green tea rinse when it was warm or cold, also do i have to wash it out right after or do I leave it on my hair for a certain amount of time? Sorry if these questions sound silly it is just that I am new to this and want to get as much information as I can.

I can’t say definitely for your hair but it has worked for others. Give it a try and let me know.
