Here we go. I wish I had a video to show you but that will have to wait for Summer. There will be a day when I throw in the futility towel and allow the kid to bathe in the river. That will be the day I video the no poo method. Until then, we will need to make do with these pictures.
First, get yourself some nifty squirt bottles.
I used a sharpie to draw a line indicating the one cup line. Then, put a tablespoon of baking soda into one bottle and a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar into the other bottle.
Now that you have the ingredients in the squirt bottles put them in those squirt bottles in the shower. Get everything else ready for your shower and jump in.
Now fill the bottles up to the one cup line that you marked with a sharpie.
Normally, you will do this in the shower but for demo I am filling this bottle at the sink. Now, shake it up.
Squirt this onto your scalp and massage as if it is lathering. It takes a couple of minutes to squeeze the whole cup into your scalp. Enjoy yourself. Think about those times you went to a salon and the stylist rubbed your head at the shampoo station. Massage that cup of goodness into your scalp. When you are ready rinse. Doesn’t it feel squeaky clean!
Now fill the apple cider vinegar squirt bottle to the line with water, shake and squirt. The ACV is a rinse. Squirt it on and then rinse as if your were using a conditioner. Doesn’t that mane feel soft!
Now, I know that this method works. It’s simple no frills and my hair is clean and soft. I will start to experiment and add ingredients for smell and for individual hair needs. My hair is straight and fine so I don’t need a conditioner daily. I am interested in any ideas for new concoctions. I hope to have some additional recipes by summer!!!
