Homemade shampooHomemade 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.

But they test on animals! Yuck!

At this point I’m sure these big fat corporations have some idea how to make shampoo without the need to test it on animals. Consumers, afterall, having been using shampoo for quite sometime now.

Does anyone have any favorite drugstore hair products that don’t test on our furry friends?

They all do.

"CRUELTY FREE" OR "NOT TESTED IN ANIMALS" MEANS THAT NO ANIMAL TESTING WAS DONE ON THE PRODUCT AND ITS INGREDIENTS.
Believe it or not
Even if a product never was tested in animals, there’s a very good chance its ingredients were. A company might call its products "cruelty free" because it isn’t doing any animal testing on these ingredients now, although the ingredients may have been tested on animals in the past. In some cases, "no new animal testing" might be a more accurate claim.

IF A PRODUCT IS LABELED "ALL NATURAL" OR "ORGANIC," IT’S PROBABLY HYPOALLERGENIC.False
Remember, poison ivy is all natural, too! But you probably don’t want it on your skin. It is very possible to have an allergic reaction, or other irritation, from products labeled "all natural" or "organic." For example, lanolin, from sheep’s wool, is a common natural ingredient in some moisturizers that sometimes causes allergic reactions.

I have a quarter inch of hair and if I shave it bald after bleaching it, will I get my normal hair color back?

"Bleaching" hair is not just mixing household bleach with shampoo. You need to buy hair bleach….and if your hair is not colored right now, you can use a blonde box color from the drugstore. Do not use household bleach – you’ll burn your skin and scalp!
Yes, your "normal color" will grow back after shaving bald. Only the hair that was on your head when you colored it will be that blonde. Hair grows half an inch per month generally, so that’s how quickly it will grow out.

I’ve never used it (can’t get over the fact that horses can use it too) but I have some friends that have. They’ve said it does make their hair thicker but I haven’t heard anything about being poofy or frizzy.
