Ingredients: Herbal Hair Rinse for Flaky Scalp
This is your base TikTok-famous herb combo—but feel free to customize with herbs your scalp loves.
Essential Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons dried rosemary
- 2 tablespoons dried chamomile flowers
- 1 tablespoon dried nettle leaves
- 1 tablespoon dried calendula (optional but great for inflammation)
- 3 cups filtered water
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (optional, for pH balance)
- 2–3 drops tea tree oil or peppermint essential oil (optional for scalp stimulation)
- You can find most of these herbs at your local health store or online. Use organic whenever possible.
Instructions: Step-by-Step Herbal Rinse Guide
Step 1: Boil & Steep
- Bring 3 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan.
- Remove from heat and add all dried herbs to the pot.
- Cover with a lid and let it steep for at least 30–45 minutes, or until fully cooled.
- The longer you steep, the more potent the rinse becomes. You can also steep overnight for max benefits.
Step 2: Strain & Mix
- Strain the herbal mixture into a glass jar or spray bottle using a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth.
- Stir in apple cider vinegar (optional) and essential oil drops.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Step 3: Application
- Use after shampooing, or in place of conditioner.
- Pour or spray the rinse slowly onto your scalp and strands.
- Massage gently into the scalp for 1–2 minutes.
- Let sit for 3–5 minutes, then rinse out with cool water—or leave in for an even deeper treatment.
Tips & Customizations
- Oily scalp? Add a teaspoon of dried sage to reduce excess sebum.
- Super itchy scalp? Add a bit more rosemary and a few extra drops of tea tree oil.
- Blonde hair? Use more chamomile and skip rosemary to enhance natural highlights.
- Dry hair? Mix in 1 tbsp aloe vera juice before applying.
How Often Should You Use It?
Use this rinse 2–3 times per week for the first 7–10 days to rebalance the scalp. Then reduce to once a week as maintenance. You’ll likely see and feel results after the first use, but give it a full week and that flaky scalp? History.
Can You Turn This Into a Leave-In Mist?
Yes! Just pour it into a spray bottle, refrigerate it, and use it daily to refresh the scalp. Mist directly onto roots and massage in—no need to rinse. Perfect for dry shampoo days when your scalp still needs love.
This isn’t just a social media trend—it’s herbal healing at its best. After four decades of home remedies, I can confidently say this TikTok herb rinse will cure your flaky scalp in a week when used consistently and correctly. You don’t need fancy serums or $60 scalp detoxes. Sometimes, all you need is a kettle, a few herbs, and a little know-how passed down through generations (or trending on TikTok!).
