I CANNOT get rid of my shampoo. Please don't misunderstand me. Being the natural lady I am, I have attempted many times. I have made multiple homemade recipes. I have used baking soda and vinegar. I have used homemade dry shampoo and washed with just water. But my hair can't seem to cooperate.
I don't have thick glorious hair, I have straight, fine hair. Not to be mistaken with thinning hair. I have alot of it, but it is fine. It is also a grease making machine.
Exhibit 1:
In this picture, you see my hair is oily. Unfortunately for me, I had washed my hair exactly 24 hours before this picture was taken
Exhibit 2:
In this picture, you see my hair is looking pretty gross. The oil runs all the way down to the tips. But I had washed my hair exactly 48 hours before. It looks like I washed it last summer.
The homemade shampoos always leave my hair greasy. Like I never washed it.
Although the vinegar did condition, the baking soda dried my hair out so much I thought it would start breaking. (Later I learned due to the high PH levels, you really shouldn't use baking soda)
I think my hair is just way too oily for dry shampoos because it would look oily AND look like I had something in my hair
As for the water. Hey, if you can get away with only using water that is great! But, I am not one of those lucky people. Water alone only seems to add to the oil.
Instead, I have opted for less toxic shampoos. If my hair ever changes or I come up with something that actually works, I will let you know. But for now, I don't do the no poo thing.


You should share your homemade deodorant recipe that you made mine with. I already lost the recipe what you sent recently. I will always use shampoo, but I try to get the type without nitrates and nitrites.
