For those of you who make your own products, I know you will agree with this next statement “Everything looks like an ingredient for a hair recipe!!”. I have went through our supplement cabinet and looked up just about every supplement we have to see if it is beneficial for hair and or skin care. I was surprised most by turmeric, wheat germ and olive leaf, I have no idea olive leaf could help with acne and dandruff. My newest supplement turned hair and skin ingredient is ginseng. We got a bag of it from a friend and I had no idea what to do with it. My husband was taking some of it internally for energy aside from that, it just kind of sat on the shelf. 


So I looked to my hair care encyclopedia; Google, and low and behold ginseng has been being used for ages in hair care and skin care!! 


Ginseng: 
“Ginseng has been used in many shampoo formulas, and a variety of ways exists to take ginseng for hair health.”
“Add several tablespoons of the ginseng tincture to your favorite shampoo. Wet your hair with warm water to open the hair follicles and massage the shampoo deeply into your roots. Let it sit on your scalp for several minutes and repeat this process four to seven times a week.” Source: Livestrong.com
