Step-by-Step Preparation
Follow these simple instructions to create your own anti–hair loss tonic:
-
Gather the ingredients: Make sure all ingredients are measured and ready to use.
-
Combine in a pot: In a small pot, add the bay leaves, rosemary sprig, grated ginger, chopped avocado pit, cinnamon stick, and cloves.
-
Add the water: Pour the 2 cups of water over the ingredients, ensuring everything is submerged.
-
Bring to a boil: Place the pot over high heat and wait until the mixture begins to boil.
-
Reduce heat and simmer: Once boiling, lower the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes so the ingredients release their beneficial properties.
-
Let it rest and cool: Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool completely. This may take several hours.
-
Strain the mixture: Once cool, strain using a fine strainer or cheesecloth, extracting as much liquid as possible.
-
Transfer to a spray bottle: Pour the strained liquid into a spray bottle for easy application.
-
Store in the refrigerator: Keep the tonic refrigerated for up to 10 days to preserve its properties and prevent bacterial growth.
How to Use the Hair Tonic
For best results, follow these recommendations:
-
Apply the tonic directly to the dry or clean scalp, focusing on areas with more hair loss or thinning.
-
Gently massage the scalp with your fingertips for 5–10 minutes using circular motions to stimulate circulation and improve absorption.
-
You may leave the tonic on without rinsing. If preferred, let it sit for at least 2 hours before washing your hair.
-
Use the tonic 3–4 times per week to see visible results within a few weeks. Consistency is key.
Tips and Variations
-
If you have a sensitive scalp, dilute the tonic with a little water before applying.
-
For a stronger aroma, add a few drops of rosemary or lavender essential oil.
-
If you don’t have an avocado pit, you can substitute a few drops of avocado oil.
