To be honest, I don't really measure the amounts but here's what I
think they are: At night, bring about 8oz of water to boil, remove
from heat, throw in what amounts to about 3-4 tablespoons of dried
hibiscus and 1-2 tablespoons of dried rosemary (or the equivalent in
teabags), cover and let sit till the morning. You can add even more
if you want to -- it won't hurt because sometimes I add more if I
can't wait overnight. The next day, I put a towel around my neck and
spray the stuff all over the top of my head, making sure to get the
roots saturated (I have a little spray bottle and I spray about 4-
5oz. You might spray less if your hair is real short because it's
drippy!!). Then, I cover my head with a bag and put a little towel
around that so that my head doesn't get cold!!! (By the way: Last
night I put the tea mixture on my head a few hours before going to
bed and just dried it with my hairdryer before sleeping. It didn't
stain my pillowcases and I'll wash it out this morning.) After about
2 hours, wash like usual -- and don't forget to add 3 tablespoons of
apple cider vinegar and about the same amount of the
hibiscus/rosemary tea to 1 and 1/2 liters of water as a final
rinse!! My little girl has started to do the same and it's made her
curly, somewhat dry hair so nice and soft!! Good luck with your
hair!!
