okay. ive used tea rinses for my hair and skin before but i have a inquiry :) this tea is a 'mint medly' with organic high quality herbs. ingredients: peppermint leaves, spearmint leaves, rose hips, lemon peel, hibiscus. i read in a article here that peppermint leaves and rose hips are good for strenthing damaged hair which is GREAT! but im curious about the hibiscus and spearmint leaves. i really want to know if these would be drying as im looking for something to stregnthen and add a little moisture to my hair that i already have on hand in my cabinet. i dont think theres much lemon peel so im not too worried about that. thanks :)

as a note i read that hibiscus flowers and leaves can be ground up and used in shampoos and conditioners.

I'd love to see your results. I have some fresh spearmint leaves from the mountains, where I spent my weekend, and I also have hibiscus. If it works for you , I might give it a try. A little moisture is always welcome.:)
