FENUGREEK HAIR WASH

1-2 washes, 15 minutes or overnight
INGREDIENTS
2 tbsp ground fenugreek
1/4 cup water (add more if soaking overnight)
DIRECTIONS
Add the ground fenugreek and water to a small mixing bowl. Mix together and allow to soak for at least 15 minutes. Use like any other shampoo or hair wash when bathing or washing the hair (see notes).
Notes
If soaking overnight, you will want to add more water. Because the longer it soaks, the more water the fenugreek will absorb, just like chia.
My experience is that this makes the hair very strong, smooth, and silky. I usually recommend this to clients who have hair fall, dry itchy scalp, or just weak, tangly hair. I have also used this for my child - for her cradle cap, dry scalp, and tangles.
I like to use it like this - get into the shower, wet the hair, apply the fenugreek hair wash just like any other hair wash or shampoo, let it sit for a bit, then rinse it out towards the end of the shower/ bath. I usually follow it with traditional shampoo and no conditioner because you likely won't need it - you hair should be moisturized with it!
Make sure you rinse the fenugreek out well...or you may be picking bits of fenugreek out of your hair. Which isn't bad, just present :).
You can also use it as a body wash - the results are the same as with the hair - nice, smooth, and gently exfoliated skin.
It does not store well, so I like to make enough for one wash at a time or use any extras as a body wash.
