Natural Hair Care Treatments: 2

used-tea-bag-staining-1Now that we have talked about dandruff and lemon juice, let’s go ahead and dive right into another technique and natural hair care remedy that I have used many, many times.  Tea leaves are actually fantastic for your hair and after making your tea – if you boil the used tea bag in two to three cups of hot water, you will actually be able to create a regenerating rinsing solution for dull hair.

If you are looking for some silky strands, you can use henna extract, as it is by far the most efficient.  Basically, you mix a henna paste with eggs and lemon juice and use it as a hair conditioner.  I can promise it works!

Finally, if you have dry hair, two to three teaspoons of olive or coconut oil can be used in the mixture above, as that is something that can really liven up and repair your hair!

Using Mint Oil for Healing Purposes

mintIt comes as no surprise that mint oil can be a healer. Or, rather, the curative power of mint itself has been known for a long time. Traditionally, it was recommended as a tea or as a mixture of the leaves.

Mint oil, however, gets extracted from the entire plant, and it is said to be able to help with not only digestive problems, but also with headaches, nausea, and the problems which occur with menopause.

You see, the menthol in mint oil — of which it has high levels — has anesthetic and antiseptic qualities and effects.

It can thus also be used to help with respiratory infections. If you use it properly, it can help with headaches, coughing, colds, and even muscular cramps. The oil can also fight bacterial infections, so it may be an effective acne treatment as well.
