Good genes help....never use a brush on wet hair... I was told not to heat rosemary in water.. just put rosemary in cold water and leave for 24 hours... <br>I was a hair stylist for 39 years so I know about hair.. <br>So add items below with rosemary <br>Rosemary.. onions cloves put all in water. Then put in a spray bottle spray onto your scalp.. put in fridge .. use within a week..

I was told by a beautician not to use Rosemary late in the day as it can keep you awake!!!

Hi dears, I can confirm that the rosemary water works great - I leave it in cold water for 24 hours and then sieve it and spray on the sculp and masage it every evening - I have never had thick hair in my life and even lost a lot of hair recently - now after 4 weeks I can see new baby hair and my hair look very healthy and appears stronger. Also I stopped using chemicals and dye my hair with henna instead the common hair colours available in stores (as these are full of chemicals). Wishing you all the best and to get also great results!🥰😀💖

Humph! It would have been nice to have had thick hair in the first place! According to my mother, I was born with a shock of carrot coloured hair, but it was always fine, and even when that first baby hair disappeared, it was never thick, and was never that colour again. Throughout my childhood, it was a light ginger, fine, flyaway, and totally wayward. The colour faded a mousy ginger as I got older (like, about 14!), and it has always resisted all attempts at styling. I gave up in the end, and wore it in a thin pony tail most of the time. The one bright spot was the fact that it never really went grey. Then it started to fall out, as the side effect of some medication I was taking. When I stopped the medication, the problem ceased, but it's really thin and scraggy now, and it's finally decided this is the best time to go grey😠! I'm 75 next month.

At 61 i have a full head of hair with colour in it still. bit white around the sideburns thats it and really all I have done is wash it once every 6 or so days and put shampoo or conditioner in it for about 20 minutes while having a bath and I have no balding and i just use a good cheap shampoo or conditioner one which feels nice in the hair and makes it feel clean.i was told yrs ago you have to let your hair keep its oil so just wash it regularly just as you need it.
