Sunday Smiles - Rosemary Water


 So I boiled this batch of rosemary water from fresh rosemary for about 20 minutes and it is ready for use. Apparently it promotes hair growth. Daughter L swears by it and persuaded my son to use it. It just requires a daily squirt onto your hair.  It smells good.  I put this bottle in the refrigerator.

They both have thick heads of hair but my daughter said she had a bare spot by her temples. Seriously my hair is thinning in old age but I don't believe in such things. Maybe you would like to try this?

Tried tons of methods before, including castor oil, rosemary, etc. None worked. I guess I am just getting OLD.

Hmmm, aren't the ingredients cooked away after that?

Oh, it does sound promising. I like rosemary in cooking and the fragrance has a way of keeping me awake too. Thanks so much.

My hair is thinning too, and I've always had thin hair. It's a little scary. But at least this is something basic like rosemary, and not a bunch of drugs you need to put into your body. Happy Sunday Christine.

Thanks for the tip.

I have always had thin hair but now it is super fine, and losing some too. I made an herbal mix including rosemary for my hair too-so far nothing is really helping for me I have also been taking vitamins for the hair-I will finish up this second bottle and then call it quits.
Let us know how it works

Rosemary water might be good for your scalp, but I don't think it will make hair grow faster.

I don't even talk to the door to door sales people anymore.

Interesting, I've not heard of that before.

Nutrafol for women and a nightly rub of Rogaine have truly helped me with my thinning hair. I'd never heard of the rosemary treatment. Thanks, Christine!

It been sometime since I used rose water.

Kay said...

Really? Rosemary? My hair is thinning and so is Art's definitely. My mom has quite a bit yet and she thinks it's because she rinses occasionally with lemon juice. I've read that's not good for your hair... but ah well..

Not sure if that would work, but I'd be afraid of smelling like a roasted chicken. 🐔 LOL!

That's an interesting DIY hair care remedy! Rosemary water is known for its potential benefits in promoting hair growth, so it's great to hear that your daughter swears by it. The idea of simply squirting it onto the hair daily sounds easy enough to incorporate into a routine. Plus, the refreshing scent of rosemary is definitely a bonus!

While I haven't tried it myself, I'm intrigued by the idea. It's always fascinating to explore natural remedies for various health and beauty concerns. Thank you for sharing your experience with boiling rosemary water—I'll definitely keep it in mind!

By the way, I wanted to mention that there's a new blog post on melodyjacob.com that you might enjoy. Feel free to give it a read when you have a chance!

I always had a thick head of hair but I noticed how it's thinned out quite a bit. I'll keep this in mind.
