Forest Glade Herbal Rinse for Dark Hair 5 Treatments

Description

A ring of trees frames off a mystical place, a dark forest glade. Here there is the smell of trees, the aroma of woodland herbs. Step into the circle of trees and gather what you will, precious gifts wrapped in leaves and blooms that will nourish and condition your scalp and hair.

This blend may stain hair, deepening brown tones and giving it a rich glossy sheen. It should be used on medium brown to black hair. This listing is for 5 treatments, and will come in paper-based glassine lined tea and coffee bags that have a foldable stay-fresh top. Made with recycled material and the bag 100% recyclable and the herbal treatments can be composted when you’re done!

Ingredients: Sage Leaves, Birch Leaves, Lavender Buds, Linden Blossoms and Leaves.

- Sage: Helps reduce the buildup of oil on the scalp and promotes healthier hair.
- Birch Leaves: Helps to maintain the health of the scalp and reduces shedding.
- Lavender Buds: Stimulates the scalp and encourages hair growth.

Directions: In a large cup heat 2 cups distilled water to boiling. Add in 1 herbal rinse bag, cover and allow to cool. You will need 1 large bowl and cup to apply the rinse. Standing in the shower, place the large bowl on the floor and kneel over it. Pour the rinse through your hair, catching the rinse in the bowl.

Transfer the rinse to the cup, and then pour back through your hair into the bowl. Repeat several times until you feel your hair is saturated with the rinse. You may delay rinsing until later to allow your hair to drink in the benefits. Herbal rinses should be applied to clean hair.

Storage: Keep the rolled and closed bag in a cool, dark and dry place. Treatments should be used within one year of purchasing.

Disclaimer: Unfortunately this is a necessity so bear with me while I go through this. I hope you will use common sense and thoroughly research the herbs and oils in my products before you use them, but research is no substitute for seeking the advice of a licensed practitioner. As individuals we all have different constitutions, sensitivities, allergic reactions and possible health conditions. Our products and the information set forth herein are not designed to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease nor should any information contained herein be read as prescribing any specific remedy or guaranteeing any specific result. They should not be ingested or taken internally. If you have any reason to suspect serious illness, seek appropriate medical advice and care promptly. I cannot provide you with medical advice, required dosage information, potential drug/herb reactions, or assistance with questions relating to injury, illness, etc.

The Importance of Allergen Testing: Although our products are made with all natural ingredients, many people are allergic to natural ingredients such as certain plants, nuts, and oils. An ingredient that is very mild and soothing for one person can be an allergen for another! Each product description on our website includes a complete list of ingredients. Please read through all ingredients listed. People who have food allergies are not always allergic to the same items in skin care products. In case you are in doubt do an "allergy patch test."

Allergy Patch Test: Apply a small amount of item you are testing* on the upper part of your inner arm (at the crook of the elbow) and cover it with a bandage. Choose a time of day where you can leave the patch test in place for least 24 hours without getting it wet. If you are sensitive to any of the ingredients, a reaction such as reddening, burning, itching, or other irritation, should occur within twenty-four hours of application. If you don't see or feel any reaction, the preparation is probably safe to use. (See note under Allergic contact dermatitis.)
*If you are testing herbs, mix a small amount of herbs with water to make a paste. Apply the herbal paste for the patch test.

Why Patch Test? Patch testing is a way of identifying a substance that causes contact dermatitis (inflammation of the skin). There are two types of contact dermatitis: irritant contact dermatitis and allergic contact dermatitis.

Irritant contact dermatitis: An irritant reaction does not involve the immune system. It is most pronounced immediately after the patch is removed and fades over the next day. Although a substance that causes an irritant reaction may exacerbate skin conditions such as eczema, the reaction will not get worse with repeated exposure to the irritant.

Allergic contact dermatitis: An allergic reaction is due to substance called an allergen and occurs only in those who are allergic to that particular substance. These reactions involve the immune system. Since an allergic reaction may take a few days to develop, if you are an allergic type person it is important to keep an eye on the patch area for a few days after the patch is removed before using the product. A substance that causes an allergic reaction should be avoided completely. The more times the skin is exposed to the substance, the worse the allergic reaction can become.
