DIY Natural Shampoo

Ingredients: 

1/2 Cup Coconut milk. Fresh or canned. (If you buy canned make sure the only ingredients are water and coconut, no added fillers.)

1/2 Cup Dr. Bronner's Baby Unscented Castile Soap

1 tsp Natural Vitamin E-Oil. (Make sure the only ingredients are Vitamin E and Olive Oil, no added fillers.)

10 Drops of Lavender Essential Oil

10 Drops Rosemary Essential Oil

Mix all ingredients into a shampoo bottle or a foaming soap dispenser. You can add 1/4 cup of distilled water if using a foaming dispenser. Shake before every use.

The life of the shampoo is about 3-4 weeks, no need to refrigerate.

As for a conditioner for after shampoo: I like to use raw Apple Cider Vinegar as an after rinse that balances the PH of the scalp and helps soften the hair. I simply pour the ACV into a spray bottle and spray my scalp and spray all the way to the ends and massage into my scalp and hair. Let sit for about 2-3 mins and rinse well. That's it!
