Basil Leaves
When people think about basil, they mainly consider it a food ingredient. Pesto is a famous dish that uses it. However, the herb is also helpful for various medicinal purposes. Commonly known as an effective antibacterial agent, basil can get rid of the fungi that often cause dandruff. It is also very beneficial for hair since it has vitamins and nutrients that can strengthen it. The result is a luxurious head of hair that looks impressive.
Applying basil leaves to hair is mainly by using it as a paste. 15 to 20 fresh leaves should be enough after rinsing all the dirt off them. Grinding the leaves into a paste with a bit of water is the next step. Manually grinding it with a mortar and pestle is difficult, so the intelligent use of a blender can be a good alternative. The goal is to create a chunky paste that would be easy to apply to the hair and scalp. Once applied, it should stay on for 20 minutes and then be rinsed away. When done twice a week, the dandruff will be gone, and the person’s hair will look incredible.
