The Art & Science of Homemade Shampoo

admin — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 08:41:59 +0000

Homemade shampoo is not as easy as it sounds. Many a budding shampoo maker is put off when their first few attempts go awry. However learning to make shampoo is a black art that is definitely worth it in the long run. So here are some pointers to get you well on your way to becoming a master of the homemade shampoo and an connoisseur of the homemade conditioner.

When you start out, you should treat your first few concoctions as tests. In other words you shouldn’t get down when your shampoo doesn’t turn out the way you expected; it’s just a test result. As the old saying goes, “The man who makes no mistakes makes nothing”. Don’t expect every shampoo recipe to have spectacular results. There are many variables such as your type of hair, the condition of your scalp, and the quality of the ingredients. For example, people learning how to make shampoo frequently complain that causing them to have dandruff. Rather than see this as a failure, you should write down the exact recipe and make a note of the effects it had.

Next you should ask questions online to help guide you. A great place to learn is the Yahoo! Answers site. The chances are that your exact question has already been answered, but if not you can pose the question for a rapid barrage of responses. I just looked up for the example of dandruff and got the following tip: – “It may help you to use rosemary or tea tree. Maybe even an organic scalp massage oil.” It’s very much a process of trial and error, which is a good thing. Being able to master the art is an adventure into the unknown, and should not be feared but treated as an exciting journey!! It’s much more fun that way and in my experience the best homemade shampoo results come from people who enjoy the process.

I bleached my hair didn’t like it and re-dyed it – What is the best homemade hair conditioner?

admin — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 09:42:18 +0000

Yesterday I bleached my hair it came out YELLOW! so now I’ve re-dyed it purple I still have the conditioner from the kit in but I was wondering what is the best homemade conditioner I can use?
Like mayo and eggs what else?

Mix 4 tablespoons of Olive Oil and 2 tablespoons of Honey. Pour this mixture into a ziploc type of bag (sandwich bag). Now, microwave a cup of water until hot. Pull the water cup out of the microwave. Put the oil/honey mixture into the cup and let it get very warm. Next, put the mixture into your hair. ALL of IT! Then, wrap your head with a plastic grocery bag or shower cap. If you use the grocery bag, use a clothespin to bring it closed around your head. Allow it to absorb into your hair for an hour. Then, wash your hair with your regular shampoo AND conditioner. Wash it. You won’t believe how soft your hair becomes. I use this recipe once a week or once a month. It is incredible! Nothing beats it!! Goodluck.

Homemade Conditioner For Damaged Hair?

admin — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 19:25:30 +0000

I have short thick hair that needs some restoring. I’ve heard that honey and olive oil are great but I do not know how to use them together. I refuse to use egg or mayo in my hair. Does anyone know of a recipe that uses honey and olive oil?? If so, how do I go about mixing them? Please give me specific steps. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

just use olive oil alone in ur hair, no ‘recipe’ required

2-Minute Homemade Lip Gloss/Conditioner (Without Heat or Electricity)

Visit my blog for more info on this vid: http://denimcouturestyle.blogspot.com

Custom lip gloss and conditioner for lazy girls on-the-go like me. No heat or electricity required. Easy on your wallet too!

IMPORTANT: Viewers who have concerns about the “ultramarines” issue should visit http://www.cosmeticsinfo.org/ingredient_details.php?ingredient_id=626 for more information.

Keep in mind that most synthetic and even “natural” makeup can be toxic to our skin. Consider that products labelled as not 100% “lip safe” shouldn’t then be okay for mucous membranes like our eyes, openings like our tear ducts, or our highly-absorbent organ–skin–in general. Yet we use them anyway. So before nitpicking whether something is “lip safe”, consider what products you’re putting on as a whole, not just whether or not it can be used in a localized area of your body.

To quote a few facts about ultramarines from the above site: “Scientific Facts: …The levels of heavy metals in Ultramarines are regulated by the FDA, and the small amounts that may eventually be in cosmetic or personal care products do not pose a risk to human health.”

can you actually put apple vinegar on your hair as a homemade conditioner?

admin — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 01:53:29 +0000

wouldnt that harm your hair?

You won’t believe how many ways apple cider vinegar can be used to promote healthier skin and hair! Find out some of the couldn’t-be-simpler ways to put it to work for you, below:

1. Hair rinse: Apple cider vinegar gets rid of residue build-up on hair, leaving it soft and shiny. Mix 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar with 1 quart water and use as a final rinse after shampooing.

2. Stain remover: If your hands are stained from chopping berries, dab some straight apple cider vinegar on the stains and they’ll disappear like magic.

3. Tired, swollen hands or feet: Rub a little apple cider vinegar on tired, sore, or swollen hands or feet and feel the soothing difference.

4. Overnight facial: Get rid of blemishes and make your skin more youthful by patting apple cider vinegar on your face before bed. You’ll have softer, smoother skin in the morning!

5. Sunburn bath: If you’ve been singed by the sun, find soothing relief by adding a cupful of apple cider vinegar to your bath and soaking for 10 minutes.

6. Topical skin burns: Apply ice-cold apple cider vinegar to prevent blistering.

7. Lightening age spots: Dab areas with straight apple cider vinegar and leave on overnight.

8. Dandruff fighter: Mix 1 part apple cider vinegar to 3 parts warm water to balance scalp pH and control dandruff. You can also apply undiluted vinegar to the scalp. Allow it to penetrate, then shampoo with a mild shampoo.
