Hibiscus Powder
Our Hibiscus Powder harnesses the nourishing power of hibiscus petals. Used internally as a tangy tea and externally as a hair mask, it offers antioxidant support, potential heart‑health benefits and a natural way to revitalise hair.
100 % dried hibiscus flowers and leaves, finely milled.
Benefits for Hair:
Supports hair growth: Traditional use and limited animal studies suggest hibiscus may stimulate hair follicles and increase hair length.
Reduces hair fall and greying: Nutrient‑rich petals provide amino acids and vitamin C that strengthen strands, reduce breakage and may delay greying.
Treats dandruff and frizz: Antimicrobial properties help combat dandruff and conditioning masks smooth frizz.
Adds volume and shine: Regular use can make hair look thicker and more lustrous.
