NETTLE HAIR RINSE

Pick about 8-10 nettle tops or whole stems, wash thoroughly. Boil 1L of filtered water and pour over your nettle in a big bowl. Cover and leave to cool, then put in the fridge and infuse for 24 hours or overnight. The water will turn deep greenish brown colour. Pour into a spray bottle or a jar using a sieve.
Wash your hair the way you usually do, and then either pour the nettle rinse over your hair whilst in the shower, or spray generously on the entire length. Massage the scalp. Don't rinse out.
I am not sure how this rinse would work on lighter hair, so I suggest testing it out before you commit! Also, patch test on your hand before use, to make sure it doesn't cause any irritation.
