It worked really well although I hated the gritty build up you get after a day or so. It was a wonder for styling my hair (it is rather fine though there is a lot of it) since it works best when my hair is "dirty". I will definitely have to give this a try.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931929236953717093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429011090554633241.post-4837606356918365972009-08-31T12:24:28.194-04:002009-08-31T12:24:28.194-04:00I've heard of doing this, and I'm so intri...I've heard of doing this, and I'm so intrigued, but also a little scared, lol!

If you want to go more eco friendly or natural there are tons of sites that sell them and health food shops sell all that kind of stuff.You can still get the lather and scent without all the chemicals.The only problem is that it costs more then reg shampoo :( Im cheap so I hate that.Crazy Squirrel Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07897825088690187180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429011090554633241.post-63656031865637106432009-08-30T23:01:37.834-04:002009-08-30T23:01:37.834-04:00I've been reading a lot about the "poo fr...I've been reading a lot about the "poo free" movement lately. Unfortunately, I'm not brave enough to do this. I thought about it, and I am still rinsing my hair with straight white vinegar, which has done wonders for it, but I'm not willing to give up my smelly good 'poos. I'm looking for one with less chemicals, but it's still got to be soap-y. I found Cherry Blossom scented Suave the other day......i'm in love now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429011090554633241.post-84188242098794638082009-08-30T21:34:44.416-04:002009-08-30T21:34:44.416-04:00I'm intrigued!

Lol.....Aww I made you blush, I feel so special now! Lol..<br /><br />I LOVE Apple Cider Vinegar, I use it for all kinds of stuff, internally and externally, and adding it to my hair is just one more thing to add on the "awesome ACV list" in my book lol.<br /><br />I am lucky, I get to stay home during the week, so hopefully the transition will not be to big of a deal. I have no problem rockin the pony tail believe me ;)<br /><br />I am so excited to do this, it is crazy!<br /><br />If I run into trouble or have questions I will totally email you, I am all about finding ways to tame the red beast that is my hair!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06530694215865491263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429011090554633241.post-72883767678110727972009-08-30T19:33:50.739-04:002009-08-30T19:33:50.739-04:00Thanks so much Bella!! You made me blush and thats...Thanks so much Bella!! You made me blush and thats not easy to do lol <br />The transition is what your hair does to right itself.My hair transition sent me from my pre poo free hair to dull, limp, lifeless, oily looking hair.But like I said I tried homemade shampoo recipes that were terrible at the beginning of my journey.Most often people notice transitions if they cut everything out.Some people only water wash their hair.They use nothing as a cleanser other and the water and their own fingers.There is a book ...I believe it called "Curly Girl" and its about cutting all cleaners out and just water washing your hair.The transition for that is said to be pretty harsh so I used that as a form of reference, like a worse case scenario.But I honestly think that if I had used the baking soda wash from the beginning I wouldnt have had such a hard time. You might just go through a few days of limp, kinda oily hair then that should be it.Maybe cut out shampoo during the middle of the week,that way come the weekend if its peaking at the worst of it, you can rock a ponytail till the storm passes.Pretty much the reason it does that is that our scalp has to relearn to take care of itself since its not used to doing so.Once your scalp gets used to doing its job again you shouldnt have any issues.I am going to go edit my post and add that I only 'wash' my hair 2-3 times a week.The other days I just 'condition'.You hair is not meant to be cleaned everyday.<br />I'm here for you if you want to try this out and need to email me a thousand times a day with questions or words of encouragement...my email is on my profile page.Im here your you my curly haired sista!!Crazy Squirrel Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07897825088690187180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429011090554633241.post-8847478853407944042009-08-30T18:56:33.865-04:002009-08-30T18:56:33.865-04:00Yay, thank you so much for posting this!

I know what you mean about only combing through your hair when it it wet, I do the same thing, if I take a brush or comb to it when it is dry, I look like I stuck my finger in a light socket.<br /><br />Can you explain what you mean by "going through transition"?<br /><br />Thank you again for the post!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06530694215865491263noreply@blogger.com
