How to use a shampoo bar

How to use a shampoo bar. Step by step "how to" guide to finally make those shampoo bars work for your hair! Is it really shampoo ?! 2 Get your hair ready ! Always check the ingredients! If you you spot Sodium hydroxide (a.k.a. Lye), you are buying soap, not shampoo, and that will leave your hair looking dull, gummy and coated! Use a simple baking soda rinse to fully remove the silicone left in your hair by supermarkets hair products. Add one tbs of baking soda into 250ml of lukewarm water. Stir well, then pour over wet hair. 3 Lather like you mean it! 4 Rinse, rinse, rinse..rinse again! When getting started, don't rub the bar directly on your hair. Use your hands or a sponge to get a foamy lather, and only use the lather to wash to avoid leaving too much residue and make your hair too greasy. Check that every section of hair has been covered, including the nape of your neck. Get rid of any shampoo residue and foam excess by carefully rinsing your hair. For better results, you can also use an exfoliating glove or sponge to massage hair and scalp. For extra shine, sprinkle with cool water before turning the water off. 5 One last touch! 6 Stick with it! Mix 2 to 4 tbs of apple cider vinegar) with 250ml of water in a bottle or jar, and apply on wet hair. Dry hair will need less ACV, while oily hair types will need more. Once the hair is dry, the vinegar smell will dissolve completely! It can take a couple days, sometimes a week or two for your hair to lose all the chemical residues left from synthetic hair care products. Once all the nasty stuff is gone and your hair is back to regulating its oil secretions, your hair will look even better than before! Source: www earthbits.com O19
