Perilla Leaf Tea for Healthy Hair Growth

How to Use Perilla Tea for Hair Growth

  • As a Drink:
    Sip 1 cup daily, preferably in the morning or afternoon. The antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids work internally to nourish hair follicles and support scalp health.
  • As a Hair Rinse:
    After shampooing, pour the cooled perilla tea gently over your scalp and hair as the final rinse. Massage lightly into your scalp for 2–3 minutes before letting it air-dry. Use this 2–3 times a week.

Benefits of Perilla Leaf Tea for Hair

  • Strengthens Hair Follicles: Rich in omega-3 fatty acids that help reduce follicle inflammation.
  • Boosts Scalp Circulation: Promotes blood flow to nourish hair roots.
  • Fights Hair Thinning: Antioxidants may reduce oxidative stress that leads to hair fall.
  • Soothes Itchy, Flaky Scalp: Anti-inflammatory properties calm scalp irritation.
  • Adds Natural Shine: Herbal rinses often leave hair softer and shinier over time.

Tips and Precautions

  • Use organic perilla leaves for best results and to avoid pesticide residues.
  • If you have seed or nut allergies, perform a patch test before using the rinse, as perilla belongs to the mint family and can sometimes trigger sensitivities.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before adding herbal teas to their routine.
  • For noticeable results in hair growth, be consistent — it usually takes 6–8 weeks of regular use.
