PROLONGED RINSING.... LEMONGRASS EO.....

15 minutes of rinsing.... under the shower, squeezing my locs every minute or so.

Following a thread I read on a forum, I knew that the time I usually spend rinsing is not even close to as long as it should be.

I've been doing more rinses now ....
My love for lemongrass essential oil grows all the time...
It just picks me up as soon as I use my rinsing recipe:

1 part honey
2 parts water
Mixed well
a teeny drop of olive oil
4-6 drops of lemongrass essential oil mixed in well.

Massaged into wet locs and left for 5 mins....then rinsed for 15 mins....
The smell is so citrusy and vibrant. The steam just picks the lemongrass and clouds the batrhroom with a strong lemon smell. Mmmmmmm.

My locs now smell so fresh!

Great to use for times when you need a lift, like morning rinses or when you are feeling a little down.
I replace the lemongrass with sandlewood essential oil for night rinses, a very relaxing and spiritual enhancing oil.

If you buy any aromatherapy book, you will see that there are notes next to all the oils - high note essential oils are uplifting, base notes are relaxing oils to use.

My favourite this month -Definately Lemongrass eo.
