Best for
Normal hair or warm-weather scalp days when you want a light fresh-feeling rinse. Avoid on irritated scalp or if green tea/caffeine makes your skin reactive.
Recipe ingredients
- 1/2 cup brewed green tea, cooled completely
- 1/4 cup cool filtered water

How to prepare

How to use
After shampoo and conditioner, pour or mist through the scalp and lengths. Leave for 2–3 minutes, then rinse lightly if your hair feels coated, or leave only a small amount on the lengths if you already know your hair tolerates it.

Use once weekly. Do not use on broken or itchy scalp, and avoid getting the rinse in the eyes. Discard leftovers after one day.
