OMG OMG so I just tried catnip tea for the first time this week and it has been awesome! Both my shampoo and conditioner ran out at the same time, so I decided I would clarify... (with dish soap don't judge me, it's good if you over oiled or have a **** ton of build up)...and then do a catnip soak on my wet hair. I can't believe how much conditioning power it has without making my hair heavy like oil, or conditioner does.
It was so great I did another treatment on my ends while they were in braids and let them just air dry the whole day, so I have the softest braid waves and I could not be more pleased. I think I'm never going to oil or conditioner again. I must admit I thought some of the catnip results I had read I thought were exaggerated but this stuff really works!
I brewed my catnip tea in a french press with a little tissue covering the spout so no steam would escape. I let it steep an hour I think? Maybe 30 minutes the next time. I'm so happy that I found something that makes my hair happy like when I did henna, but without all the mess. Thanks to all the awesome folks in the thread for posting your experiences!
