Rice Water for Hair Growth? Some people even claim that rice water for hair growth happens overnight.

If you have dry, weak, thin hair that easily breaks…

If you color treat/chemically treat your hair and/or

you have dry, itchy flaky scalp and you have used rice water or considering using rice water, to treat your dry itchy scalp or to help with hair growth, then you NEED to do these TWO things with rice water for hair growth.

These tips are based on sources from the US National library of Medicine- National Institute of Health Articles and the International Journal of Trichology. (sources will be listed below)

Most of the videos I watched involve rinsing the hair with rice water.

Some rinsed BEFORE shampooing, others did it after.

Others let it sit and then rinsed.

Some found MINIMAL results.

Others found INCREASED results.

Some found NO benefit.

However, most of them did NOT do THIS.

So , to get the MOST BENEFIT for your hair and scalp, TRY THESE TIPS:

RICE WATER FOR DRY ITCHY SCALP and SEBORRHEIC DERMATITIS:

Alkaline pH can dry out the scalp and strip the scalp and hair of its natural oils leaving the scalp dry, itchy and sometimes flaky.

This alkaline pH neutralizes the acidity of the skin acid mantle. Most hair straighteners , hair dyes and other chemicals left on our scalp and hair can dry out the scalp and hair, and lower the “good bacteria” that is on our scalp.

Using PREbiotics and PRObiotics in our hair care products encourages good bacteria growth on the scalp.

This also naturally helps your own skins natural microbiome to help fight fungal related skin diseases.

Fermented Rice water is more beneficial than regular rice water.

Fermented rice water should have a slightly sour smell. This is when you know that the rice water is fermented.

So the HEALTH OF THE HAIR BEGINS IN THE SCALP …NOT THE HAIR. Hair is already dead.

A healthy scalp help produce healthy hair.

Seborrheic Dermatitis: Because this is a fungal disease, it is important to increase the GOOD BACTERIA on the scalp.

***PRO TIP***

Brush the hair and scalp to loosed dead skin.
Massage the scalp to loosen the dead skin and increase blood circulation to the scalp BEFORE rinsing the hair with rice water…then wash the hair with shampoo.

Ideally, fermented rice water should be left on the scalp overnight to allow the good bacteria to get on the scalp and not be rinsed off right away.

OTHER OPTION:

Because rice water has a sour smell, most people avoid leaving the rice water in the hair,

so you can use alternatively use Gallinee’ Prebiotic Scalp and Hair Serum

Unlike sour, smelly rice water, this spray serum has a nice fresh clean scent. This has BOTH PRE and PRO biotics for healthy scalp and hair.

It has:

–Filtered Fermented Rice Water

–Alpha Glucan Oligosaccharide-Probiotic derived from an enzymatic synthesis of sugars to help maintain and propagate the skins natural microflora.

–Lactic Acid-hydrating alpha hydroxy acid to encourage skin cell turnover

–Arginine-Stimulates hair growth and regeneration.

***NO SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE THAT RICE WATER DIRECTLY AFFECTS HAIR GROWTH. HEALTHY AVERAGE HAIR GROWTH IS 1/2 inch a month and NOT OVERNIGHT.***

–Artichoke Leaf Extract-protective shield to the hair cuticle that leads to shiny, frizz free hair because damaged hair lacks the 18-MEA.

–1-2 Hexandiol / Glycerin/Calcium Gluconate– Humectants that draw and boost moisture to the hair and scalp.

Unlike , plain rice water, Gallinee’ Prebiotic Scalp and Hair Serum has beneficial ingredient to increase scalp health to produce healthy shiny hair and protectants to help protect the hair from breakage and frizziness.

RICE WATER FOR HAIR GROWTH-THIN, DRY HAIR THAT EASILY BREAKS OR FRIZZES

Most beauty vloggers are shown dousing their hair with the rice water.

INSTEAD DO THIS:

So instead of dousing your hair with rice water:

FIRST: Prep the scalp and hair by dry brushing to loosen the dead skin on the scalp and detangle the hair.

Put the rice water in a SPRAY BOTTLE (fermented rice water or use the Gallinee’ Prebiotic and Probiotic Hair Spray Serum ) and as you are dry brushing the scalp and hair, spray evenly all over the scalp nad leave on for 30 minutes , rinse THEN SHAMPOO with a SULPHATE FREE shampoo.

HOW TO REALLY USE RICE WATER FOR HAIR GROWTH:

Hair that is thin, breaks and/or frizzes easily lacks 18-MEA (18 Methy-Eicosanoic Acid). Healthy hair is protected by this lipid layer.

It helps to repel water to avoid water swelling.

Dry damaged hair is lacking this lipid barrier so it becomes hydrophylic and absorbs water. When the hair absorbs water, it causes the hair shaft to swell.

Hair swelling causes the hair to be more prone to breakage.

Lack of this 18-MEA leads to tangles and frizz.

When you pour rice water over your hair then, you shampoo, then rinse, then use conditioner, then rinse, and you have damaged hair, you have now water logged your hair shaft.

This is why some people experienced little to no benefits or even increased in dryness because water swelling prevents absorption of beneficial ingredients.

***It wasn’t the rice water, it was the AMOUNT of water you were exposing your hair and scalp to.

The 2 acids that help the Hair and the Skin, using Rice:

Lactic Acid for the scalp.

Phytic Acid for the skin (helps with brightening and lightening of skin tone.
