My 16 year old daughter has always had oily hair around her face and as a result, her face would break out.

Repeat this treatment as often as you have time (daily if you can) till your color is what you want. I did two things to combat it 1) let the baking soda and water sit for 5 mins or so while I shaved to let it work (like letting a dirty pot soak in the sink, lol). Do not wash your hair afterwards, at least let it sit overnight…I did mine before bed then washed in the morning, which really wasn’t needed, but this was my first time doing this and didn’t know how great it would make my hair look and feel. Jill I just tried the baking soda yesterday,my hair seems alittle oily, I ususally only wash my hair every 3 or 4 days. I have thick amounts of hair, but my individual hair strands are very fine – I have trouble keeping barrettes and pony-tail holders in my hair.They mention that it is too tight, the fabric at the front with the Velcro on is not secure, and the band around the head was tight.

I’ve learned to save money, use more natural products for personal care and around the home, cook scrumptious, but easy, meals for my family, tackle spaces that never seem to stay clutter-free, and just feel like next-door neighbors who can talk over the fence with you anytime! It’s a simple shower cap filled with shampoo product that is placed on your loved ones head, massaged in and then simply toweled off to remove the product and any dirt. I brought this for my clients that have little movement in a wheelchair to lean forward or backwards with a neck tray to wash their hair.

Has to fit tight, which it does and it feels too tight for some to stand the pressure around the head. If I have to boil water to use for my shampoo that is one more step then I want to mess with so I would go back to regular shampoo if I did.

You can only imagine how happy my bank account is going to be not having to put out that kind of money anymore! Most of these things that say they cause cancer really have no proof at all and if you look at the words they use they will say – could, may, there is a chance and they have to say that because the tests they did and thought would prove it didn’t pan out. before no poo) sometimes the next day I just needed to slightly wet my fingers with water to respike and not add more product.

Every once in awhile mine does the same thing but then I wash it again the next time and it does fine so if anyone else has an answer give us a holler. Sometimes it will clear up on it's own or maybe a gentle no tears shampoo might be what she needs once in a while. It is quite scary to use because it does recline between 30-40 degrees depending on the chair, but it is secure. Some people have found after using this homemade shampoo recipe for a while that they only have to rinse their hair with water because the ph and oil becomes so perfectly balanced. I would imagine that hair products are designed to strip chemicals (including color and perm) from hair to encourage you to invest in additional of the manufacturers products.

I have also been making my own laundry detergent and gave some to my son who farms, welds and does mechanical work who proclaimed, “Mom, this is the best stuff on the planet for all the grease, blood and stuff I get into! It was for both Jeanne but I have recently started using the whole amount of the BS because it is winter and if I leave it sit in the bathroom it is really cold when I pour it on so now I just put a tablespoon of BS in a glass and then fill it with the warm water from the shower.Thank you for the bicarb shampoo recipe…I have been using it now for about a year or more and it really is wonderful! I can’t stand it when you are in church for example, trapped in a pew, and some woman can be smelled (perfume) rows away, and it makes your eyes and lungs almost burn from the smell.
