Green tea is one of the best beverages, besides water, to put into your body. The most natural and chemical free way of getting the benefits of green tea is to brew it. Green tea is the only tea that undergoes minimal processing and oxidation. This method makes green tea contain more of the disease fighting nutrients. Commercially bottled green tea does not offer the same benefits as brewed green tea because it requires many preservatives so it will have a long shelf life. Green tea is especially rich in an antioxidant named epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Antioxidants are molecules that slow down the damage by the by-products from oxygen in our bodies. These by-products are called free radicals EGCG has been studied and shown to stop the growth of cancer without the side effects of surrounding tissue damage. This beverage has many more healing properties than just cancer prevention such as: tooth decay prevention , cardiovascular health, it assists the aging process of cells, weight loss, reduces the bags and darkness under eyes, and many more studies will show green tea’s powers.
I love to drink green tea in the mornings with my breakfast, but I love to use it in my hair even more. My favorite brand of green tea is Salada because it has a nice rich taste and smell. It only costs $3.99 for 40 bags. I thought if green tea can do wonders inside your body then it won’t hurt to find out what it will do on the outside. Now there are many kitchen remedies that will take your hair out, and that is why I take precautions when using new products.
Directions & Preparation: This green tea rinse can be used after y0ur shampoo as a conditioner or after your conditioner as a rinse.
- Be sure to wash out the conditioner or shampoo thoroughly before applying for the best results.
- Use 1 tea bag for every cup of water you use.
- Brew the tea bags for 3 to 5 minutes in hot water or if you cannot wait for the water to cool, then warm the water in the microwave till it is warm and brew for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Pour on the hair and make sure you massage your scalp, and that it saturates every part of your hair.
- Leave in for 3 to 5 minutes and rinse.
- Style and dry hair as usual.
Immediately after applying the rinse, your hair should feel smoother than normal. I have noticed that green tea puts a natural coating on each strand of hair. Do not worry, it does not stink or leave a filmy substance on your hair. Green tea will not weaken the bonds or alter the hair; it just smoothes the hair and makes it stronger. Green tea can be used on relaxed, natural, and transitioning hair. Just remember to use this product with caution like any other product. Looking for all natural products can be very difficult and costly sometimes, but sometimes you can find the best remedies for your hair in your own kitchen.

I use honey and if I dont use honey I use nothing at all it just depends on how I feel in the mornings. If you can try to find a good quality honey from a local farmer’s market or health food store. I used to use the Wal-Mart brand honey while I was at school, but I just liked the taste of the “home grown” honey from the health food store. What brand of tea do you drink?

Nice post about using green tea for hair. Another non-traditional use for green tea that a lot of women don’t know about is to use green tea mixed into a facial scrub. You can either buy a facial scrub that contains green tea, or you can buy the green tea to mix with your favorite facial scrub.
Also, you are correct that consuming green tea is very beneficial. Some people don’t like the taste of green tea. Another way you can get your daily green tea for all the health benefits is to take green tea extract.
