Herbal Hair Tonic and Hair Oil Updates
I made an herbal hair tonic to encourage hair growth and repair. You can read the original post here. Why I made it is written below. The hair tonic is made with all nettle, but I'm considering adding burdock root now. The tea infusion I am drinking is made differently.
I have researched this through a few books and online, and do feel calcium helps hair and nails, so I made sure I was also drinking nettle and tulsi teas (infused for a stronger tea).
I made my tea infusion using 3/4 cup dry nettle and 1/4 cup dry oat straw. Both are good combination for calcium, and hair and nail health. I used a quart canning jar, poured boiling water over the herbs, placed the lid on, and steeped it for 4 or more hours, sometimes making it at night and steeping all night. Drinking within 36 hours, before it goes rancid.
