I wash about every 5 days with diluted baking soda and use acv or sometimes lemon juice in my rinse, some conditioner on my ends. My sister complains about the acv smell, so I'm thinking of trying dr Bronners citrus hair rinse. I'm concerned if the price is worth it since acv is cheaper and if it works want better ( Read more... )

...with a question about hair care using baking soda. I've been using an apple cider vinegar rinse instead of conditioner for about a year now and love it. I'd like to start using baking soda instead of shampoo, but everything I've read about 'no 'poo' seems to indicate that people transition to only washing every few days instead of daily.

Last summer I finished my degree and got a job starting in November. I had to move 600 km away from everybody I know. First job, new job, new flat (flathunting was rather exhausting too), trying to start a social life, working overtime because it's all new to me and I have lots of responsibilities ( Read more... )

I've tried no poo and more natural shampoos but since the results are meh, I'm still searching for the best hair care routine. Just noticed this past ( Read more... )

I've been having trouble with my hair the past few years and I was wondering what you all would suggest. I used to use pantene ice shine but then something happened and it started making my hair look oily all the time so I switched to tresemme which I hate. I don't like the smell and want something more natural. I also seemed to develop dandruff ( Read more... )

Hi all, first time poster! I've been browsing the hair-care memories for a while now, and my brain is starting to feel a bit mushy, so please forgive if I'm asking something redundant ( Read more... )

Hey folks ( Read more... )

I like to use dry shampoo on my roots in between washes, and I've found that cornstarch is not only the cheapest thing, but it does the best job at making my hair feel clean and matte. I've tried commercial dry shampoos before and they either don't really make my hair feel clean, or the effects don't last very long. Unfortunately I have brown hair ( Read more... )
