Homemade-Shampoo

Creme de Coco Shampoo
Coconut oil has been touted recently as the latest nutritional wonder (Pacific islanders of yore are said to have enjoyed strong teeth, hearts, abs and flawless skin). Though Creme de Coco Shampoo isn’t edible (you might wish it were since it smells so good) its benefits are undeniable; Even the surfactant (the stuff that actually cleanses) is a coconut derivative that lends an unusually luxurious lather.
To make it even richer, another member of the palm family, Astrocaryum Murumuru contributes an extraordinarily rich butter derived from its kernels. More than a few flowers are in the recipe as well: The Mallow adds a soothing effect, and the Milk Thistle contributes its antioxidant properties.

Creme de Coco Conditioner
Beauty secrets of the South Pacific are brought to you in this tropic-inspired balm. Coconut oil played an important role in native hair grooming practices, usually blended with aromatic floral extracts. Consider Creme de Coco Conditioner a modern interpretation that makes full use of the humble Coconut – both oil and extract (we’ve been called cocowahoos in our zeal).
True to tradition, several other botanicals play important roles in this formula. Murumuru Butter and Meadowfoam Seed Oil are both rich moisturizers; Wild Olive Seed Oil is a very effective softener; Horsetail (the flora, not the fauna) and Nettle were both chosen for their ability to promote lustrous hair. The sum is an experience that will leave you dreaming of mythical islands. Enjoy.

Concerned about the world’s addiction to oil, and its disastrous environmental consequences for the planet, the filmmaker convinces his family to go on an “oil diet” for one year. Aiming to reduce their contribution to greenhouse gases, Webster—if not his wife and two young sons, who are very reluctant participants—is eager to learn from their experiment and becomes a man on a mission.

Divided into thirteen eponymous chapters, RECIPES FOR DISASTER chronicles their efforts on a month by month basis, revealing the personal difficulties involved in making such a radical change in lifestyle, and the surprising extent to which petroleum-based products figure in our everyday lives, including home heating and electricity, transportation, food, plastic products and packaging, clothing, even toothpaste, lipstick and shampoo.

When I had a chemistry class in middle school we made cupcakes where one of the ingredients was replaced with some sort of shampoo and they came out tasting just as good as normal cupcakes. Does anybody know what it was replacing/what the recipe was? I really want to try making them again!

Shampoo is not edible. It will effect the intestines causing diarrhea. It may have worked for the cupcakes to rise normally but they should not have been eaten. There is "natural" shampoo that can be used to clean teeth when camping, but it still is not meant to be eaten.

Microwaving shampoo gives an unexpected result. Remember, microwaving food is for morons.

(Also for makeupbynumber’s beauty recipe contest!)

This is a simple, easy to make hair mask that repairs and softens your hair. It’s perfect for dry, damaged, or color treated hair!

Ingredients:
1/2 Banana
1/2 Avocado
1/2 tablespoon Cocoa Shea Butter
*Note* You may need more or less of the recipe, depending on the length of your hair.

Steps:
1. Mash up the banana & avocado and put in a bowl.
2. Add in cocoa shea butter.
3. Mix together.
4. Put half your hair up, and apply.
5. Apply to the top half of your hair.
6. Put a hair cap on. (Shower caps work too…as long as you don’t mind getting it a bit dirty.)
7. Leave on for 30 mins. (AT THE MOST!)
8. Shampoo, and condition your hair as normal. (Make sure you get out all the clumps.)
9. Leave to AIR-DRY.

I would reccommend using this mask once every two weeks at the most.
Once a month is what I normally do…(I get lazy. :-p)
