With this natural treatment , you can get healthy, soft, and strong hair without having to rely on harmful chemicals.
Hibiscus leaves and flowers are rich in anthocyanins and flavonoids, cyanidin-3,5-diglucoside, cyanidin-3- sophoroside-5-glucoside, quercetin-3-7- diglucoside, and quercetin-3-diglucoside which can reduce hair loss, overcome split ends, prevent the growth of gray hair, treat dandruff, thicken and increase hair volume, and make hair look healthy and shiny.
