Here are the players in this homemade rosemary mint shampoo:
- Aloe Vera Gel: Aloe vera is a tremendous ingredient for hair care. It helps moisturize the scalp and hair, and research has shown it can help with an itchy scalp and dandruff.
- Olive Oil: Olive oil benefits the aging process, and it has an emollient function that keeps moisture in both the hair and skin.
- Baking Soda: Baking soda is well-known to help cleanse hair, whether in a traditional shampoo or dry shampoo. It makes for a great ingredient in this homemade rosemary mint shampoo.
- Rosemary Oil: Rosemary oil has the ability to help stop hair loss and actually promote hair growth, so naturally it's a great ingredient to any hair care product.
- Peppermint Oil: Just like rosemary, peppermint essential oil promotes hair growth and also helps combat dandruff.
