    I think you'd use it as a rinse after washing. Just steep some rosemary in boiling water for a while, then rinse your hair with it once cooled.

    Just went out and picked a ton of rosemary and dunked it in the (empty) bath to get rid of beasties. Then a really upset bee came whizzing out and I had to open the window to let him out :) will freeze some and use some in tatties in the remoska, then wash my hair. Not in the remoska, in the sink. LOL

    Look for a jelly recipe. Basically, you use apples to make the jelly and rosemary flavours it.

    Yes, you can use dried rosemary but remember it is a lot stronger than fresh so don't use too much. Also, I recommend mixing the rosemary overnight with oil to partially rehydrate and rub over the lamb tomorrow. A couple of teaspoons of rosemary should be plenty.
