I only have experience with a green tea hair rinse, but I do know black tea can be used the same way with similar benefits.
Tea and hair rinses are not exactly used in the same sentence too often but trust me; you are going to love this one.
Green tea has been enjoyed as a calming health drink for centuries. And more lately, it has been making its way into the cosmetic and beauty world.
Green tea is known for being rich in antioxidants and a good source of vitamins A, C, E, and many of the B vitamins. Other minerals such as manganese, zinc, and chromium can also be found in green tea.
Being so rich in vitamins and minerals, it is no wonder why green tea would benefit our hair and even skin in the way of body scrubs.
Using a green tea-infused shampoo or doing a simple green tea rinse is the perfect way to benefit your hair with the nutrients found in the tea.
Comparable to green tea, black tea is quite beneficial for the hair as well. However, it isn’t recommended to use a black tea rinse on lighter hair.
This is because the black tea can stain blonde, light brown, red, or white hair.
While black tea can stain and should not be used on lighter hair tones, it is actually quite beneficial for dark brown or black hair.
Black tea in the hair can create a beautiful shine and even cover gray hairs; however, don’t get too excited about the temporary hair dye, that fix won’t last for long, but the shine will!

Black tea can intensify hair color, promote healthy hair growth, and leave your hair smooth and shiny.
It is by no accident that green tea is making its way into the beauty world or why you can find several hair care products on the shelves infused with green tea. But is green tea good for hair? Yes, it may help increase hair volume and growth as well as protect and prevent hair loss.
Making your own green tea hair rinse is as easy as brewing a cup of tea! All you need is green tea (loose leaf or tea bags) and water. A spray bottle will be helpful for easier application but is not required.
Bring water to a boil in the saucepan.

Discard tea bags, then let the tea cool for about 30 minutes.
Once the tea has cooled off, stir in the vitamin E oil and the rosemary essential oil.
Pour the tea rinse into the spray bottle.
Wash hair with shampoo, then spray the green tea into the hair and onto the scalp. Work the tea into the hair and leave it in for 10 minutes.
Rinse with warm water and follow up with a conditioner.

Using a green tea hair rinse may prevent hair loss and strengthen hair. In addition, as I mentioned earlier, green tea has anti-inflammatory properties, with inflammation being a common culprit of an itchy scalp and dandruff.
Dandruff can lead to hair loss, injured hair follicles, and embarrassing white flakes. Using a green tea hair rinse may help stop or reduce dandruff.
Rinsing with green tea can also help keep your scalp free of bacteria and yeast infections. Keeping these things at bay can help strengthen hair and promote hair growth.
Green tea is naturally anti-inflammatory and full of antioxidants which can help neutralize free radicals. This delightful drink will allow you to receive its many benefits both internally and externally.
Green tea can be applied directly to the hair and scalp as well as drank to receive its many benefits. Typically the results will show quicker when used as a hair rinse, but drinking green tea will promote healthy hair too.
Drinking green tea can increase the essential nutrients needed for healthy skin and hair. Green tea is a good source of vitamin E, which will help keep the scalp healthy and support the supply of nutrients for hair growth.
