Pregnancy and stress have been the number one reason for losing my hair. Though I try hard to eat healthy food, there were times when I had no control over my life, and I woke up with strands of my hair all over my pillow.
Sounds frustrating, but believe me, I managed to restore my damaged hair by eating healthy food, taking hair supplements, and later drinking green tea especially after I discovered the many benefits of green tea to skin and hair.

Therefore, if you have been suffering from hair loss, in this post, I will tell you why you should add green tea to your life, and how to use it to achieve the best results.
Do not lose hope, because you are not alone, and you do not have to hide anymore.

Before I tell you how to use green tea for reducing hair loss, let us look at why it is good for your hair.
Why is Green Tea Good for Your Hair?
Not only there are so many benefits of green tea for your skin and hair, but also benefits for fat burning, and mental benefits, too.
These benefits of green tea are backed up by scientific studies that were made around the world. In a study published in the Journal of the National Medical Association, there was a significant hair regrowth during six months of treatment using polyphenolic compounds, present in noncommercially green tea.
So, you can use green tea for hair loss as it contains some of the most potent antioxidants and agents, which help strengthen your hair and these include:
- Green tea contains B vitamin (panthenol), which you usually find in hair care products (especially conditioner); it helps control split ends, softens your hair, and strengthens your hair follicles. Drinking or direct application onto your scalp will help stimulate the growth of healthy hair.
- In a study done at the Seoul National University (the Laboratory of Cutaneous Aging and Hair Research), scientists found that the green tea active component”EGCG” (or epigallocatechin gallate) caused significant hair elongation. In other words, applying green tea directly to the scalp results in a considerable elongation of the hair.
- The anti-inflammatory properties of green tea help to stop hair loss and even promote the growth of new hair. That means that you can use it to cleanse your scalp and fight scalp infections that may weaken your hair roots. Remember that a healthy scalp makes it more possible for hair to grow.
- Green tea contains DHT-blockers called “5-alpha-reductase”. Because green tea helps block DHT “Dihydrotestosterone,” it helps stop one of the leading causes of baldness. The good news is that, unlike prescriptive hair loss treatments, it has no side effects.
Bonus Tip – try DHT blocking vitamins
If you would prefer a faster, yet scientifically approved source of nutrients that promotes hair growth, then you should use DHT blocking supplements to improve your scalp circulation, block DHT and encourage hair growth.
How to Use Green Tea to Control Hair Loss?
#1 Green Tea Rinse
Wash your hair as normal, and then message cool, freshly brewed green tea into your scalp. Leave it on for 10 minutes, and then rinse it out with cool water. Repeat 2 to 3 times a week for a couple of months. This rinse will stimulate your hair follicles and help prevent scalp problems like dandruff.
#2 Drinking Green Tea
Try drinking a cup of green tea for hair loss treatment on a daily basis. It may take a few months to show visible results, but once it does, I am sure you will be happy.
#3 Green Tea Recipes
I have not tried any of these yet, but many have mentioned that green tea latte, Matcha latte, green tea cookies, and green tea ice cream are a great way to boost your body’s energy and health, too.

How to Prepare Delicious Green Tea
High-quality green tea requires brewing at 69 degrees Celsius (160 degrees Fahrenheit) for about 30 seconds. On the other hand, less quality may need 90 degrees Celsius (190 degrees Fahrenheit) and a longer time (2 to 3 minutes).
The following diagram, from Organic Green Tea, shows that you can prepare umami (sweet) green tea by using soft 70℃ water. The longer (or hotter water) the bitter your tea will be.
You may have noticed that green tea brewed at lower temperatures contains more Theanine; the ingredient responsible for increasing your brain’s production of dopamine to give you an alert, yet relaxed awareness [Source].
Therefore, not only your hair will benefit, but also your soul, and your whole health too will benefit from green tea. Make sure you drink organic green tea for the best results.
Now over to you.
Do you drink green tea? Have you noticed any health benefits?
I would love to hear from you!
This post should not be considered as an alternative to consulting a specialist. If you suffer from excessive hair loss, please consult your doctor.
Allison
I didn’t know that green tea had benefits to prevent or reverse hair loss! Very cool. I need to start drinking it, and hopefully now that the temperature is much cooler, I’ll find it easier to remember to drink green tea 🙂

Do not wash you hair each day, when you clean the hair, it is depleted of organic oils that are meant to hydrate it, you will generally get fine results if you clean your hair one day and bypass it the next.
Melissa J Young
I didn’t know green tea has these much benefits. Thanks for sharing. It has been 3 years since I suffer the problem of hair loss. I tried out all oils, hair care products, nothing could fix my hair. One of my friends said about going to a clinic for hair transplant Toronto. And yeah, I am considering a hair transplantation. I don’t think green tea could do anything more because it is just countable hairs left in my head!
Chetana
Melissa,
If you are in early stages then changing life style might help you a lot. like
1. Daily Exercise.
2. Good diet
3. Proper sleep
4. Less Stress etc.
Usually everyone will concentrate on external care like skin creams, hair oils, shampoos etc. However our hair health will depend mostly on over all body health.
nima
It should be proven that there in any link between drinking green tea and 5-alpha reduction .
Lorrie
Antioxidants are helpful for so many body processes, so interesting and anticipated that it would also help with hair growth!
I personally swear by biotin for hair growth. My husband starting taking it daily with food and we noticed a change within a week! A balanced diet is so important but it is hard to get all the nutrition that we require!
And now I’m going to make a cup of tea! Thanks for an informative article.
Dima Al Mahsiri
You are welcome, Lorrie!
Good to know that it worked for your husband 🙂

Great article! Does it matter if it is decaf green tea or not?
Dima Al Mahsiri
Hi Shaun,
The decaf processes remove some of the antioxidants, but there is no scientific proof that it reduce the benefits of green tea by a significantly. If you wish to use decaf green tea, that would be ok, you will still get the benefits of green tea.

How do u use green tea to rinse ur hair??/
Dima Al Mahsiri
Hi Carmen,
You can make a green tea rinse at home by steeping 3-4 bags of green tea in half a liter of water and using this water as the last rinse after you have shampooed and conditioned your hair with your favorite shampoo and conditioner. You can either leave it on, or rinse your hair once again. It would be good if you use this rinse twice a week for best results. And to double the effect, drink green tea, too.
Hope this helps 🙂

when should we take this green tea….?
after food or before food …
can we take it 3 times or more than it in a day?
Dima Al Mahsiri
I think 3-4 cups a day is fair enough. Be sure not to consume more than 5 cups.
noah
Do i use suger whiles taking the green tea
Dima Al Mahsiri
You may add sugar if you wish to.Just keep in mind that by adding sugar you are cancelling out the weight loss benefits of green tea.
A better additive would be honey for green tea. Honey has many benefits for your health, you can read more about this here.

I am having green tea past 1 month. But my hair fall increasing day by day. May b bcz of dandruff. I dnt knw i got lil confused. Do i drink green tea or not?
Dima Al Mahsiri
Since it’s been a month, I believe you should consult your doctor. Sometimes an inner health problem is the cause of falling hair, so you should ask your doctor about it.
ginger
Great advice – thank you. I love drinking Green Tea, especially Sencha. As the worldwide demand rises so is production which is probably not organic. Thus, it would be advisable to take a look at the origin and harvesting process to ensure a high Quality tea.
On top of drinking coffee, one should also avoid coffee, sugar, nicotine, or alcohol, though beer is a classic in Germany for beautiful hair.
Thanks for your posting.

Dima Al Mahsiri
Sorry to hear that your hair is falling.
So far, when using green tea in a reasonable manner, it has no side effects, unlike most medications. Yes, you can use both green tea and biotin.
Good luck!

Im trying onion juice and i think its helping
Grind a fresh red onion squueze in a chopper ,the juice using a sieve apply on scalp using a small cotton ball on the scalp . Leave for 1-2 hours and wash w mild herbal shampoo.
Do at least twice a week , there are so many you tube videos on this.

Thank you, Kitty!
I would try this out one day for sure!

I’m 25 years old and my hair start falling few years ago. I got say, there is very few day that goes by that I don’t obsess with my hair loss.
I start drinking more water and god knows it helped me in so many ways. I also start drinking tea with nettle, dandellion, peppermint and other herbs. My doctor told me that instead of using chemical way I could try natural stuff. Since I start getting more hydrate, drinking tea and watching my diet I REALLY feel a diffence.
So for all the girls who goes through hair loss, BELIEVE me, a good diet, water and appropriate herbs can help a lotttttttt.
I buy my tea from hairlossteasolution.com but I think that you can probably looked at the ingredient and try to reply their formula if you have access at good quity herbs.
Eat and drink Natural 🙂
Sarah
Dima Al Mahsiri
Thank you, Sarah, for sharing your story!
You are 100% correct about good diet and plenty of water for naturally beautiful hair. Becuase beauty comes from within, all treatments won’t work unless you eat healthy balanced food, not to mention water effect on all your body. I should add that some supplements may also help.

If it truly contains DHT blockers then by any means it should work! I would love for a cream or topical solution, as I’m not really a tea guy. Also Argan oil and Aloe gel are great for hair loss too.
Menta
Hair loss due to DHT is usually accompanied with greasy hair. Green tea is a great anti-fungus reducing considerably the amount of fungus in the scalp, ti will reduce the excess of oil caused by the fungus and it can fight dandruff too.
Use it topically. If you suffer from dandruff and itchy scalp you may notice result from the first application.
When it comes to drinking green tea, reseaches are still needed to confirm its power to fight hair loss due to DHT. Some men have reported increase in hair loss after drinking green tea. Some studies also suggest increase in DHT.
If you have doubts, topical green tea is the safest step to take and you can see result very soon.
Dima Al Mahsiri
Thank you, Menta, for sharing valuable information!

I think that as long as you avoid as many chemicals as possible on the outside and the inside, then you will end up living a more healthy life overall – not just stopping hair loss.

I have been using green tea because I have actinitis keratosis (pre-cancerous lesions on my scalp), which is because of all the time spent outside as a child and also working construction. It has eliminated the A.K. lesions and I’ve noticed a reduced incidence of hair loss. I steep a cup of green tea, cool it off, put in a water bottle, the type used when biking that has a lift up spout. I wash my hair and then pour it on my head. I don’t rinse it off. I leave it on and towel it dry.

Have you ever consulted a doctor, maybe you need a medical advice? Green tea can be a great solution for hair fall, still any medical issue should be resolved first.

Great article on using green tea against hairloss. I wonder whether it might be more effective to soak a towel in the green tea and keep that soaked towel on your head for a longer period of time so that the liquid can penetrate the scalp better. Have you tried this or do you have any idea whether it would make a difference? Thanks!
Dima Al Mahsiri
I have never tried that before, but I think I will!
I think this could help treat scalp problems faster than a rinse.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Can green tea reverse the hereditary hair loss? Is there chance of hair regrowth?

Genetic hair loss could be the hardest to deal with. I am not a specialist, so I can’t answer your question precisely, but I believe green tea and oiling your hair could stimulate the growth of new hair.

Leora Robinson
Can you brew a batch of green tea then freeze it or refrigerate the tea to use as a tea rinse for a later time? Will preparing the tea days ahead of time change the effectiveness of the tea for shedding? I know if I make a batch to last a week or so I will be more prone to use the rinse vs. brewing it and waiting for it to cool every time I want to wash my hair or refresh a wash and go. Thank you
Dima Al Mahsiri
Hi Leora,
I understand that it would be easier for you to prepare it in advance, but remember that green tea starts to lose its benefits once you brew it. So if you have to prepare it in advance, I do recommend storing it in a dark glass container to preserve the benefits of green tea for as long as possible. Sealed container in the fridge will keep your tea good for maybe 3-4 days, I can’t be sure for how long, but this is what I normally do.

When I drink green tea I get excessive hair loss. When I stop drinking it, hair loss also stops. But when I drink green tea, my belly gets slim*. But I am worried about the hair loss when I start to drink green tea. Please give me your suggestion.

Either drinking green tea or applying to your hair will benefit it, but doing both will be better, as long as you do not have a health issue that is causing hair fall.

Nice article. I bought a little glass spray bottle to spray it on instead of attempt to rinse it through my shorter man hair. Do you have to rinse it off or can you just leave it on? If I drop a few drops of lavender oil in the spray bottle can I use that for 2-3 days or does it have to be fresh brewed each time? I thought I could just spray it on my hair when I go, I usually use shea butter or argan oil daily with some rosemary oil.
Dima Al Mahsiri
Thank you, Carmelo,
Using a spray would be a good idea!
It would be better to rinse green tea off your hair, otherwise, your hair will lose volume and stick to your head.
I have not tried adding essential oils to my hair treatment, so I am not sure if you can benefit from adding it to green tea rinse.

It has been 1 month now and i am happy with the results, my hair looks stronger now and my hair fall is decreasing significantly. Apart from green tea i changed my life style too i started getting up 5:30 in morning and going outside for running or doing some exercise. Now i have searched and made diet plan for myself which includes all essential minerals that are necessary for good hair growth. I will update again after six months.

Hi Nikki,
I am sorry to know that you have a problem with your hair.
I suggest that you seek help from a dermatologist, green tea is great for restoring your hair’s health, it could be a good solution for minor problems like dandruff, but if you have an issue of your scalp, you need to cure it first.
I am sorry I was not helpful.

LC
I was drinking green tea every day for a year – right after I took my vitamins and ate my breakfast. That was when I noticed that my hair was thinning. Unless you search for negative affects of green tea, you never hear that the tannins block iron absorption, which can be a cause of hair loss. Drink the tea one hour before you eat or two hours after.
Dima Al Mahsiri
Thank you for your comment.
It is recommended that ALL types of tea be served one hour (at least) before or after a meal, as to avoid blocking iron absorption as you mentioned. Still, consuming green tea between meals is good for your overall health, and particularly your skin and hair.

I never knew that applying green tea can be good for my hair. I love the idea that I can retain hair growth in six months. In any case that this does not work for me, we will need help from expert Prp Hair Therapy Services to assist us with my hair loss.

It’s good to know that you were able to restore your healthy hair by having better food choices and consuming hair supplements. Unfortunately, in my case, I think that I can’t go against genetics as almost everyone in the family suffers from early hair loss as well. Maybe I should explore other treatment options such as hair restoration with PRP and see if it would work for me.
