Static?
I'm on day 3 of No Poo. So i have only just wash my hair for the second time so far. And both times I have static. Anyone one have a idea on how to handle static? Im using 1tb of bs and 1 cup water. 1tb of acv and 1 cup water. Should i decease/increase bs or acv? We do have hard water so i boiled the water for the bs. I'm just a little confused.

As for alternatives, honey is a good moisturizing cleanser while apple sauce is a mild degreaser.
An egg wash (egg yolk), is another good, mild, moisturizing cleanser but be careful not to use it too often because too much protein will make your hair brittle. Hairs have different protein tolerance levels, so you could egg wash anywhere from once every two weeks to once a month. Oh, and remember to rinse your hair in cold water, or else you'll have scrambled eggs in your hair.
Increasing the concentration of acid in your acid rinse will also help. You could try changing acids to see if one works better for you: apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, lemon/lime/orange juice, strong tea. Also, you can choose not to rinse out the vinegar you put in your hair after washing, or rinse it out and then splash a little extra diluted vinegar on your hair.
Fine hair can be weighed down (limp) from too much honey, and vinegar directly on the scalp can make fine hair look greasy even when it isn't.
