Clove spray for hair growth?

[Prettymetty]

I stumbled across this video today and I’m tempted to buy some cloves now. She boils 1 cup or water then mixed the cloves into the boiled water and lets it sit 24 hours. Then the mix is transferred to a spray bottle.

Have you ladies tried this for hair growth? It sounds like it may smell better than a lot of other growth aids…

I just bought a bag of cloves to try this since I seen it making its rounds on YouTube. I have used the essential oil in some of my oil mixes.

Do you like the essential oil? I saw this a few weeks ago, but was too lazy to boil cloves. I bought clove essential oil, but still haven't opened the bottle.

I don’t think I’ve tried the essential oil. That may work better actually. I’m not trying to boil and steep anything

When I was using it I was also mixing it with other essential oils for my scalp inflammation. I guess it was doing something, my scalp condition wasn’t getting any worse.

I just bought a bag of cloves and did a rinse my last wash day. I swear I have baby fine hairs on a spot on my edges that hasn't done anything up until now. All of a sudden I have little furs where it used to be shinny bald. Its about a 1/2 inch spot at the edge of my hairline (baby hairs area). It may be a coincidence because I'm using other topicals, but I haven't seen anything going on with that spot until this week!!

Most of the folks I see on YT are doing rinses, spritzes and oils with fresh cloves.

I bought cloves a couple of weeks ago to try because a loced Instagramer was telling me about them. I've only used them twice now so it's hard to say if and what it's doing, though I've wondered if it's re-balancing my scalp oils.

I also plan to drink clove water and clove tea, it's really high in antioxidants!! Cloves has a rich nutrient profile.

Great idea. I needed other uses for this big bag of cloves in my Amazon cart

I have so much moisture in my hair! I don't know if it's the clove water rinse or the CocoVeda mask or the combo. My hair is so supple and not a hint of dryness and very low frizz...

Do you just brew it plain (no other herbs) then spray onto your hair?

My first go, I ground about 1 - 2 tablespoons and steeped it in about 14 oz of hot water, in a mason jar with lid, over night. I strained the tea and put part of it into another tea spritz that I had in the fridge and I also made a rinse with the tea as the last step of my wash before my sealers and all of that. This blend was concentrated in my opinion so I mixed it with more water to do the rinse. I always use distilled water for my concoctions that call for water.

I see most YTers steep whole cloves. I read about grinding with mortar and pestle (or coffee grinder) from more medically inclined sources. I'm not sure which is more beneficial, this requires further investigation.

I like my wash day result, so much so that I wrote down what I did!! My hair feels so calm, she is not dry, she is supple instead. Perhaps I just hit the right combo of shampoo, treatment, rinse, leave-ins, oils, styling product, etc... (that's a lot)

It smells like Christmas. I've been using the spray for a couple of weeks. I can't tell if my hair is reacting to the spray, or the Mielle gummies I've been taking. My hair has been shedding less though.

I did too! I got clove oil as well. I am trying to grow my baby girls hair back. She had a fade last year and now she misses her hair

I ground up some cloves on the weekend and steeped some clove water for the first time. I used this as a final rinse for my hair on Sunday. I didn't notice anything immediate, but I will continue.

So I just massaged my scalp with a few drops of clove oil. It really does smell like Christmas! I started some clove water too. I put 1/2 cup of organic cloves in a container with spring water and I’ll put it in a spray water after 24-48 hours. We gonna grow my baby’s hair back out.

I’ll use it to reverse my grays. I have a few disrespectful strands around my perimeter.

How did you grind the cloves? It seems the smaller ones may steep faster.

I used a mortar and pestle but you can use a coffee grinder too.

I used mortar and pestle, similar to the one @AtlantaJJ posted.

Clove water is excellent for oral health and can be used as a mouthwash!!

 

[Prettymetty]

It’s almost time to put my clove water in a spray bottle! I shouldn’t be this excited… I found some aloe juice in the fridge too that I forgot about

You can find ground gloves at the grocery store.

I know, but I keep whole ones in my cupboard so I don't mind using them in something other than my cooking.

So you can cook with it too? Let me go Google this lol

I just found out clove water is good for sexual health too. Looks like I’ll be steeping clove water on a regular basis. It’s good for making cocktails too. I think I hit the jackpot with this one

I took down baby girl’s braids and sprayed her scalp with clove water. I added some garnier cream to her ends and put a headband. Those 4b curls were poppin! She loves her texture and is gaining confidence now that her hair is about 2-3 inches. I’ll have her at 7-8 inches by December.

Garnier like the facial moisturizer?

I don’t think I’ve ever seen cloves in the grocery store. Is this a specialty item? Maybe I’ve seen them in the spice aisle but I’m pretty sure those aren’t whole. Where are you all finding these?
