Hair loss is a common problem that many men and women face at all ages of life. Whether it’s male pattern baldness or alopecia, nobody wants to experience hair loss in any form, so how can you help to boost hair growth to ensure your hair remains healthy and continues to grow? Rice water might be just the answer you’ve been searching for.

What Is Rice Water?

Rice water is the latest in DIY hair care that is currently shocking many around the world. Although a staple to many diets and food dishes, rice is now being used to boost hair growth. Rice is soaked or boiled in water to help extract nutrients from the rice, leaving a milky-coloured liquid. This can deliver luscious, soft and shiny hair with as little as one use.

Although this recent trend has taken the internet by storm, rice water has been used in Asian communities for centuries. It might just be the solution worth trying if you are eager to boost your hair growth or suffer from hair problems.

How Can I Make Rice Water For My Hair?

Fortunately, rice water is relatively cheap and easy to make provided you have access to both rice and water.

Firstly, you will want to rinse and clean your rice to get rid of any impurities. Add equal parts uncooked rice to equal parts water. You can use cold water or boiling water. Once you have mixed your rice water, leave it to cool off if you have boiled it. Then, let the rice water ferment for around 24 hours.

Once you have fermented your rice water, you can drain the rice and apply the water straight to your hair.
