Setting lotion

1 egg white and 10 ml (2 teaspoons) gelatine, whisked in 250 ml (1 cup) boiling water, then combed into the hair. Allow to dry, then brush out.

Herbal treatment for falling hair

Boil up equal quantities of herb and rainwater for five minutes. Use any of the following, or combinations of any: globe artichoke leaves, lavender leaves and flowers, maidenhair fern, calendula flowers and a few leaves, nasturtium flowers and a few leaves, nettle, quince peels and cores, leaves or blossoms, rosemary, southernwood, thyme, vine leaves, watercress and willow leaves. Allow to cool, then strain. To every litre (4 cups) of herbal infusion, add 120 ml (½ cup) vodka. Dab this mixture liberally into the roots of the hair every day, but do not rub too strongly and vigorously as this will encourage the hair to fall out. Rub lightly. The mixture will last about a month – the vodka acts as a preservative. Comb into the hair daily.
