Hair Growth 101 + Rosemary Water

A Complete Guide to Luscious Healthy Hair 

Nood

If only…

all the products marketed to us (Instagram ads, we’re looking at you) did what they promised. We’ve all been there. The products we had high hopes for either didn’t work the way they were advertised or never worked at all. 

 To help you avoid these mane mishaps, we’ve curated this guide to provide a few products that will do wonders for your hair almost instantly, whether you’re looking for a quick volume boost or naturally fuller, healthier hair. Either way, these recommendations will help you achieve any hair goal to be the epitome of ✨hair goals✨. 

 The days of searching for products with a 50/50 chance of working are over. Real results only, please. 

…And lets not forget — Our hair is literally an extension of our nervous system, revealing to the world how healthy we actually are overall. So, its no wonder men are obsessed with womens’ hair — I have heard that men subconsciously gravitate more towards their mate based on hair health, as their inner monologue signals that good hair represents a woman’s vitality!

Silky Shift

The shift from cotton to silk pillowcases is small but makes a huge impact on hair’s vitality. Sleeping on a frictionless material like silk helps hair retain moisture as we sleep. Because hair can move freely, there’s ultimately less damage and frizz. (The perfect way to preserve your blowout.) 

That’s why we’re obsessed with the Save My Face Pillow. The trademarked shape not only supports the face and neck to reduce wrinkles and tension, but the natural silk fabric promotes smoother, more hydrated locks. 

Va-Va-Voom

ry the Xtra Large Bombshell Volumizer from Color Wow for bombshell blowout volume in just a few spritzes. This hardworking but non-drying foam revives fine, limp hair by thickening strands and providing all-day body. 

Hair Towel Hero

While wrapping your hair up in that big bath towel post-shower can feel super satisfying (spa vibes, anyone?), it could be attributing to hair damage. That’s where hair towels come in. These plush hair heroes are incredibly gentle on wet strands and way more absorbent than your standard towel. 

 Vola’s Hero Hair Towel is literally the best in the world. The award-winning design is thick (thanks to highly absorbent microfiber), soft, and stays in place as you do your skincare routine or dance around in your robe. They also have a size ideal for longer, thicker hair types.

Rosemary Rocks

For an all-natural hair remedy with impressive results, look no further than rosemary oil. In addition to hair-healthy antioxidants, this aromatic herb contains carnosic acid, a compound that encourages nerve growth and boosts blood circulation for longer, fuller hair. It also counteracts hair loss by nurturing the scalp, treating dandruff, and preventing follicle damage.

 One of the easiest (and most effective ways) to implement rosemary into your hair care rituals is with a dedicated oil, like this one from Mielle, or your own DIY water. 

How to Make Your Own Rosemary Water

1. Boil water on the stove in a small saucepan. 

2. Once water is boiling, add a few rosemary branches (enough to cover the top with very few spaces in between). 

Pro tip: Allowing water to boil before adding rosemary will help retain as many nutrients as possible.  

3. Boil for 10–15 minutes.

4. Leave rosemary in water until fully cooled.

5. Transfer cooled mixture into a spray bottle and store in the fridge for 2 weeks.  

6. Spray onto dry or damp hair 2–3 times weekly and comb it through from scalp to ends with a gentle brush. 

B-A-T-A-N-A Oil

 Nope, it’s not banana—it’s batata! Extracted from the South American palm tree, batana oil has long been used as a hair and scalp treatment. This under-the-radar ingredient repairs damage and strengthens strands for thicker, shinier locks. Surprisingly, batana oil isn’t frequently found in hair or skincare products. The easiest way to get your hands on this head-turning ingredient is through sources like Doctor Truth, the most trusted brand for 100% pure, unrefined batana oil. 

Pro tip: Use batana oil in combination with rosemary water or oil for faster results.
