The natural beauty products have become very popular among women worldwide. However, the search for the right natural product can be quite difficult.
For instance, most of the natural products used for keeping out hair clean are not effective as they seem to be. Some of those natural methods are the water-only, apple cider vinegar, natural shampoo bars, conditioner-only, baking soda etc. Unfortunately, they don’t really provide the wanted results.
Let us take the shampoo bar for example. It is completely natural and organic, but it leaves a waxy build up on the hair. This can be removed with the use of commercial shampoos only, the one you are actually trying to avoid.
The majority of the natural shampoos leave the hair dry, oily, and frizzy. This especially refers to the ones with thick hair because the ones, who have the opposite, find these methods effective. To sum up, if you have thick hair, stay away from these natural methods.
Luckily, there is a solution for the above mentioned problems and it is called homemade Castile Shampoo.
You are probably wondering what makes this natural shampoo distinctive and more effective than the rest you can think of. First of all, this shampoo is extremely easy to prepare. If you are already familiar with the process of making your own Castile soap, you will even save a lot of money. The Castile soap has the ability to remove the grease and the dirt from the hair without eliminating the natural oils. As a result, it leaves the hair shiny, manageable, and soft. Most importantly, it adds extra protection on the hair.
The ones who have tried this natural method are very satisfied by it. They claim that it gets better with time and that within a month, it gives amazing results. During the first week of using this natural shampoo the hair gets a different texture. After the adjustment period, the hair becomes smooth, soft, silky and most importantly healthy. You will soon be able to notice that your hair feels great.
Ingredients:
- ½ cup liquid Castile soap
- ½ cup water
- Few drops of essential oil
- 1 tablespoon light vegetable oil
Directions:
Mix all the ingredients and put the mixture into an empty pump bottle or a container. It is recommended to use a squirt bottle, as this natural shampoo is much thinner than the commercial ones. If you are one of those that have thick hair, oily at the roots but dry at the ends, add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil instead of the recommended one tablespoon.
You may find this counter-intuitive at first, but you can be sure that it works perfectly. It will take you about 2 weeks to adjust your hair and soon after that you will feel the positive results.
Prior using the shampoo, shake it well. Apply a good amount on your scalp by massaging the roots of the hair. Rinse right away.
Note: At first, you may feel that your hair is not clean as it does with the shampoo you normally use. The thing is, Castile shampoo doesn’t strip the natural oils, which is definitely a good thing. As a result of the remained natural oils on every stand of your hair, as it dries, you will notice that the hair itself becomes healthier and stronger. Additionally, there is no need to use a conditioner on your hair anymore because this method naturally conditions the hair. However, you may use some natural serum, such as raw sunflower oil.
To sum up, the Castile Shampoo is easy to prepare, it is completely natural and most importantly, it is extremely effective. Don’t hesitate and try this natural method as soon as you can. You will be amazed by how well it works.
