About a year ago, I said NO to Sodium Laureth Sulfate (a known carcinogen), Cocamidopropyl betaine (named ‘Allergen of the Year’ by The American Contact Dermatitis Society), and Sodium Xylene Sulfonate (an eye and skin irritant). That’s right friends, I said NO to shampoo!
These things were found on the label of a so-called ‘Natural’ shampoo. After doing a little label research, I realized I needed to find a new way to cleanse my family’s hair. That’s when I found a simple, inexpensive, effective, and safe way to clean our hair. And the best thing is, you already have everything you need to do it yourself!
All you have to do is mix 2-4 Tbsp of baking soda in a cup of water.
Pour that on your hair while you’re in the shower, and scrub it into your head. Thoroughly rinse it out. Then mix 2-4 Tbsp of apple cider vinegar in the same cup filled with water.
Pour that on your hair and scrub in also. Thoroughly rinse it out. The vinegar smell will not linger on your hair after you rinse. The baking soda will gently get the oils out of your hair, and the vinegar will soften your hair and scalp.
So the next time you lather up, turn the bottle around and see how many of the ingredients you can identify (or even pronounce!). Go on the internet and check those things out! Some of the things you’ll wonder why they’re there in the first place!
