Hola folks :) I'm dreading my hair in a week. I went and got some Dr. Bronner's so I could start using it and work out how much dilution I like and such. I've used it a few times now and I'm kind of stumped. The first time I used it I diluted it 1:4 and it left my hair feeling like nasty residue for days. Today I tried 1:8 and it still felt so icky that I had to wash it out with my old Herbal Essences.
I must be doing it wrong :(
Is there some technique I'm missing? I've never used anything so liquidy to wash my hair before, so I've just sort of been dumping it on my hair and scrubbing like crazy. But I end up getting it in my eyes and mouth... and it stings quite a bit.
Also, maybe I'm just using too much? I figured like 2oz was fine because it's quite diluted, but would less be better?
Any tips, really, are welcome. I want to get it figured out before I dread so I'm not having the residue feel with the dreads. Thanks so much!!!
