Mix. Store in a empty shampoo bottle.

Herbal Shampoo

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 Tbsp. dried or 1/3 cup fresh chamomile, lavender or rosemary
  • 1/2 cup shampoo
  • 2 Tbsp. glycerin

Mix together the water and herbs. Heat on simmer until it looks like strong tea. Let stand for about 25 minutes. Add shampoo and glycerin, stir well. Pour into a bottle. Leave overnight to thicken.

Beer Hair Treatment

  • 1 cup beer (fresh or flat, cheap is great!)
  • 1 cup shampoo
Heat beer using medium heat until it is reduced to about 1/4 cup, then add it to the shampoo and mix. Pour into a bottle.

Favorite Hair Rinse

  • 2 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp. lemon juice
  • 3 cups distilled water
Mix and use as a final rinse

Now for the Herbal Users group! I also give this away as gifts!

Herbal Oil

  • 1 part dried herbs
  • 2 parts olive or almond oil

Mix well and put into a container. Let stand for 2 weeks. Make sure you shake it every day. Strain the oil into a bottle with a lid and refrigerate until ready to use. Work the oil from roots to ends. If you have oily hair, apply to ends only.
