Vinegar
Baking Soda
Hair Care
Gross.(not really though)
I have been washing my hair for that last 2 years give or take a few months, with Baking Soda and Apple Cider Vinegar.
I have tried this method off and on a few times, with long hair and short hair. Works better for me with short hair, as it fried my long hair but that could have been the way I was doing it.
The first few times I kept a container of dry baking soda in the shower just dumped a little in my hand and added enough water to make a paste. Then tried to evenly distribute it through my long locks. That fried my hair, I gave up after a few try's.
Then I cut my hair and donated my pony tail to Locks of Love for wigs for children, it made my heart feel good.
Well then I tried it again with short hair same process, made a mess of my hair again. Gave up again! F-this noise I tells ya.
So I did some more research, and I can't remember if I followed someone elses idea or plans or if I just made them up myself, in this case pffff, I made them up myself, "those who dout me........" add your own profanities, expletives this is family friendly... Well I try. It's a quote from the HBO show Deadwood, you get my drift, It has a lot of swearing in it, and crude comments, it is fantastic.
So we found some glass jars with cork style lids at a yard sale or thrift store or someplace like that.
For the baking soda I take a little more than a handful of baking soda load that into jar then add water to fill the jar put the lid on shake it up.
Then for the Apple Cider Vinegar, I fill up the jar 1/3 up then top off with water, put the lid on, shake.
This method has been working very well for me the last two years. Now your supposed to be able to ween yourself off of this stuff, when your hair starts "naturally" cleaning itself, I have never gotten to that point my hair gets pretty gross if I don't wash it for more then two days. I thinks its all a load of what? you may ask your self, BULL, ya maybe if you don't do to much with your day and sit around in an extremely Air conditioned building then you might be able to get away with weening your self off. Me? no I'm in the heat and humidity too much, just doesn't seem plausible.

Now these two containers last me about 3 showers a piece, I don't use the Vinegar wash every time, just like you don't use conditioner every time, unless you do then go for it.
