 I've drank I've drank green tea before in the past I've drank drinking. I've drinking. I've drunken. I've drunken. I've drunken. I've drunken green tea. I've drunken I've drank green tea from back to my channel Thank you guys so much for tuning back in and watching another one of my DIY natural hair videos in today's video I'm gonna be sharing with you guys a little something I want to try I've been seeing it and I'm just gonna go ahead And give it a try so it is the green tea challenge. I'll call it a challenge because I Don't know why I'm calling it a challenge. I'm just calling it a challenge because I guess I'm attempting this for the very first time I guess so I'm challenging myself. I don't know why I'm doing this So as you can see my hair is in this bonnet and the reason why it's in this bonnet is because it is wash day Sunday Wash day Sunday is the day that I do my hair wash my hair get it all prepped for the week and get it all Moisturized and detangled and all those good things. So I'm challenging myself to see if this is going to work So I'm gonna try to be as consistent with it as I possibly can because I can't get a little likes on some things So what I'm gonna do is a green tea rinse and the reason why I'm trying this green tea rinse It's because I haven't been trying to find a DIY that can help with shedding. I suffer from extreme Shedding all of a sudden why won't all of a sudden but for a while now I have been suffering with excessive shedding when I detangle my hair when I wash my hair Just when I run my fingers to my hair I just get like my hands are just full of hair and that's not good So I know there's several things that can cause hair loss and hair shedding Stress being the main one, which is my problem work stress. So just I've been noticing just a lot of Hair fall because of the stress. So I got to fix that I got to find something so I've been searching on launch on to find some things you two and things Pinterest whatever for shedding. So what I came across was green tea or tea rinses So I decided to let me do the green tea rinse. So I got Two things of tea. So I picked up two and the reason why I picked up two is because I want to gradually See how my hair reacts to the caffeine if I need a little caffeine if I don't need any caffeine or if I do need caffeine Here I have the decaffeinated green tea and Here I have the green tea with caffeine So I wanted to try both of these I'm starting with the decaffeinated of course and the reason why like I said It's because my hair has just been doing all this crazy shedding So after researching and checking online and watching YouTube videos and Pinterest and things like that I still a lot of people talked about the green tea rinses or just the tea rinses in general Which is supposed to promote hair growth and was supposed to promote or supposed to minimize and reduce Shading of your hair and hair fall. Have you want to call it now with the decaffeinated tea You can let it steep for as long as you want because there's no caffeine in it With the one that does have caffeine in it caffeine in it. You do want to Take it out at the appropriate time You don't want to have it too strong for your hair because you might you know You don't know what how you're gonna react to that So, you know, just definitely be careful with caffeine I had a lot of hair on my hands and I was just like pulling hair off of my hands and just it was it was bad It was really bad So I said I gotta get control on this cuz my hair is never gonna grow if it keeps falling out green tea Of course does promote hair growth. That's one thing I know about green tea But I didn't know about some of the other benefits as to Why it's helpful for the hair shedding or how it minimizes hair fall and hair shedding I went online to see you know What causes hair shed and why green tea is a big thing for minimizing hair fall and hair shedding now Since my memory is so bad I just have to read it off-line because I just cannot remember anything to try to repeat it back So I'm just gonna read to you what was on the Googler. So basically it says a green tea contains DHT blockers Which stands for the hydro Testarone, I hope I'm saying that correctly And it helps to stop one of the main causes of baldness now DHT is a hormone that Causes hair shed and hair fall and baldness and so green tea is basically has this DHT blocker That prevents the hair from shedding excessively and falling excessively out of your hair and causing baldness So this is the big reason why people do the t-rences is because of this particular reason because it blocks that hormone So I'm gonna try this and like I said, I'm gonna try this over the next Probably a couple of months. You know when I do my my hair. I don't want to do this I'm gonna start out doing this once a week But then I'm gonna gradually start to taper off just kind of monitoring my process and the progress of This green tea to see if it's working if it's not working and I'll be sharing with you along the lines And I'll also be sharing with you The the hair fall I'm gonna see if this stuff works So I'm just gonna show you really quickly what I do to start this process now the first thing you want to do of course Is wash your hair? I have not washed my hair yet I just got the deep condition on and just doing a deep condition But I'm about to wash this out of my hair So basically you just boil water put the tea in there Just like you're making a cup of tea let it cool and after you do all your washing and all that You're just gonna pour it over your hair or your scalp and just massage it in for about 10 minutes Let it sit on your hair for about 10 minutes and then just rinse it out with cool water Do not want to put hot tea on your hair because that can one burn you and two it is not good To have hot hot water on your hair like that because that can actually damage your hair So you don't want to do that now if you do not want to put the tea rinse on your hair and go through The process of massage and then leave it in for 10 minutes. You can just drink the tea Just boil you a cup of tea let it cool and then just drink it.

So we're just gonna let it So we're just gonna let this cool before I apply it to my hair So From my hair and it is nice and Clean it feels super super super super soft Super moisturized Not just from the green tea, but also from the deep condition deep conditioning that I did So I'm gonna do right now is just put my coconut oil on so I'm just gonna part my hair into four sections with my hands and I'm just gonna Put this in four plates and massage the coconut oil in really well I just want to show you guys is starting on this process with the green tea Rinse so I hope it works to help with the shedding.
