Boil 2 cups of water, steep one tea bag for 5–7 minutes, and let it cool completely before use.
After shampooing, apply the tea rinse to your scalp, massage gently, and rinse. Condition as usual and for extra hydration, pour any remaining tea over your conditioner, let it sit for 5–7 minutes, then rinse and continue your routine.
Bonus step — LCO/LOC method: The tea rinse can also serve as your L (liquid) step! Apply it to damp hair as your leave-in hydrator before sealing in moisture with your cream and oil. It's the perfect base for your moisture routine.
Storage tip: If you have leftover tea, store it in a sealed container or spray bottle in the refrigerator for up to 5–7 days, or at room temperature for 1–2 days. Since this is a fresh herbal brew with no preservatives, always do a quick smell check before reusing, when in doubt, brew a fresh batch!
