    Is there any reason to think this works to decrease shedding and strengthen (?) hair?

    There is no evidence that shows rinsing hair with tea will strengthen it or stop shedding.

    I’m not sure this is evidence but : http://www.thenaturalhavenbloom.com/2014/06/science-of-tea-rinses-for-natural-hair.html

    It does seem to be more then anecdotal.

    Pamg: Thanks so much for exposing a gap in my knowledge. I had not seen the studies mentioned in the article. I took a look at the the actual scientific papers (at least the ones I could find) and it does appear there’s some basis for the components of tea having benefits for hair. However, there are some reasons that a simple tea rinse probably won’t help. I’ll summarize my thoughts and post something to the blog next week. Thanks again.
