Tea is an amazing beauty aid be it soothing tired eyes or adding lustre and bounce to your hair.
Your hair can be damaged by the following factors-
* Stress
* Harsh brushing & too much brushing
* Extreme heat due to blow drying,straightening etc
* Your diet
* UV damage due to the sun
Using black tea on hair will allow increased blood flow around the scalp and promote hair growth from the follicles.
Black tea contains a substance called Catechin (highest concentrations found in Green tea), which allow a greater flow of blood by relaxing the blood vessels.
One more way that black tea can help you keep your hair from damage is that it can stop the forming of DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) which is the primary factor in male and female pattern baldness.
You can help prevent the DHT hormone from binding to the hair follicles by using the black tea rinse on your hair. This will help to prevent:
* Premature hair loss
* Loss of shine
* Weakening
* Breaking
* Easy damage
* Colour loss
