Aloe Rosemary Soft Scalp Pre-Wash

Why this pre-wash is gentle

Aloe vera gel gives slip, rosemary infusion adds a fresh herbal feel, and a very small amount of jojoba oil helps the mixture glide. Use it as a short pre-wash ritual before shampoo, not as a hair-growth treatment.

Recipe ingredients

• 1 tablespoon aloe vera gel
• 1 tablespoon cooled rosemary infusion
• 3–4 drops jojoba oil

How to make it

1. Steep rosemary in hot water for 10 minutes, then cool completely.
2. Stir aloe vera gel with the cooled infusion.
3. Add jojoba oil and mix until glossy.
4. Apply lightly to the scalp area before washing.
5. Leave for 8–10 minutes, then shampoo and rinse well.

Common mistakes

• Using too much oil at the roots.
• Applying to an irritated or flaky scalp.
• Leaving a homemade mixture on for a long time.

Quick checklist

• Patch test first.
• Use a small amount only.
• Keep it pre-wash, not leave-in.
• Discard leftovers the same day.
