Nettle Rosemary Shampoo This is a very fragrant stimulant for the scalp. It prevents dandruff and promotes hair growth. In a small stainless steel pan, place 2 handfuls of soapwort. Pour 1-½ cups of water over the soapwort. Bring to a boil, lower heat, and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and cover. Allow to steep until cool. Strain into a bottle that closes tightly. Place a handful of young, chopped nettle leaves and 1-½ tablespoons of chopped, fresh rosemary in a bowl. Pour 1 cup boiling water over the chopped herbs. Allow to infuse 30 minutes. Cool and strain into the soapwort mixture. Shake the shampoo before using. Yucca-root Shampoo Dig or purchase the yucca roots. Chop into small pieces and pulverize into a pulp (using a hammer or blender). When the substance has changed from white to pale amber, it is ready to use. You can dry for later use by spreading the material on a clean surface in the sun until all moisture has evaporated. The pulp should no longer feel sticky. Thinning Hair (Bald Patches) Rub the bald areas with apple cider vinegar, using a soft toothbrush, 2 times daily. It will stimulate new hair growth. Garlic Garlic treatment for bald spots: rub a ½ clove of garlic over bald or thinning areas of the scalp. Repeat at least three times daily. Allow the area to dry before rinsing off. You should notice results in a few weeks. Hair Growth Mix 2 teaspoons of cayenne pepper with 1 cup of olive oil. Massage into the area that is thinning on a daily basis. Continue treatment. You will get results in a few days. I know of several people who have been using this treatment and it does seem to help. But when the treatment stops, so does the hair growth. Keep up the treatment if you do obtain good results with use. Onions for Thinning Hair Rub scalp with a freshly cut onion until the scalp is red. Massage in a small amount of vitamin E oil or honey and rinse off with rosemary tea. Towel dry the hair. This should be done every morning and evening. Shampoo Treatment for Baldness This shampoo will stimulate the scalp and promote hair growth. Pour 1 cup boiling water over 1 tablespoon of dried rosemary. Let steep 24 hours. Strain and add ½ cup castile shampoo. Shake well before using. Should be used every other night and allowed to stay on the scalp for 15 minutes before rinsing off. If your hair is thinning, stay away from commercial shampoos.  To Speed Hair Growth Boil ½ cup of peach seeds ( these are found inside the pit) in 2 cups of vinegar until thick. Strain and massage into scalp. Rinse well. Treatment for Baldness Mix together 1 teaspoon oil of rosemary, 5 drops oil of lemongrass, and ½ cup of olive oil. Rub a small amount into the scalp every night for 1 week. Do not shampoo until the end of the week. Setting Gel Aloe vera makes a very good hair setting gel. It dries quickly and leaves the hair shiny. This works well with curly hair. It adds a shine as well as working as a setting gel. Vinegar Rinse Vinegar is a good treatment for almost any scalp condition. You should use it as a final rinse regardless of hair type. Keep a shampoo bottle filled with vinegar and water mixture in the shower to have handy at all times. It can be a pain to have to mix a rinse every time you need it. Just use as a final rinse after shampooing.
