Harsh chemicals in commercial shampoos, hair appliances, diet and the environment are some of the many things that take a toll on your hair. One solution is to create your own shampoo that restores your hair's moisture and sheen. Many of the ingredients you need may already be in your kitchen pantry, while the others are as close as your natural foods store or farmer's market.
If you have oily hair you may find this shampoo to your liking:
1 cup cold tap water
2 tablespoons dry peppermint (you can use a teabag)
2 tablespoons dry spearmint (you can use a teabag)
1 tablespoons dry sage
2/3 cup baby shampoo
Place the peppermint, spearmint, sage and water in a medium sized saucepan. Bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and allow to steep for 15 minutes. Strain the herbs out and mix the baby shampoo in with your herb water. Store in a plastic bottle.
For normal to dry hair you may enjoy this:
In a blender, combine:
1 ounce olive oil
1 egg
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Store in a plastic bottle.
