Many people, including men and women, suffer from thinning and hair loss. It even affects more and more people at a younger age.
Today we will therefore show you the recipe for a simple homemade shampoo that will help restore the growth of your hair.
With it, your hair will not only grow again, but also become thicker, coarser, and much stronger.
Its main ingredient will be baking soda. Thanks to its healing properties, baking soda has many useful uses – for cooking, cleaning, or treating several ailments.
Now hair care will be added to those. It seems we discover new ways to use baking soda every day.
How baking soda improves hair growth and quality
This extremely beneficial substance improves hair quality by effectively removing residues from commercial shampoos and conditioners that can damage hair roots.
Besides that, it also helps nourish them better. You can even use it as a full replacement for commercial products.
So if you want to take advantage of the healing properties of baking soda while avoiding the negative effects of commercial products, we’ll show you how to make such a homemade shampoo.
At first its use may seem a bit strange, because it doesn’t create any foam like other shampoos, but you’ll get used to it over time.
Besides, its results will convince you why to choose it instead of regular shampoos.
Recipe for making and applying a homemade baking soda shampoo
Follow these steps:
1. Put baking soda and water in a 1:3 ratio (1 part soda and 3 parts water) into a plastic pump bottle (it can be an empty container from a commercial shampoo).
2. Shake the bottle contents well so that the baking soda dissolves in the water.
3. Apply a handful of the mixture to dry or wet hair from roots to ends. Let it sit for 1 to 3 minutes.
4. Then rinse your hair with lukewarm water.
And that’s it!
Addition
To enhance the effects you can also use a mixture of apple cider vinegar and water in a 1:4 ratio (1 part vinegar, 4 parts water) with a few drops of fragrant essential oil added to improve the scent.
With this mixture you can rinse your hair either after, or even better before applying the baking soda shampoo.
If you use baking soda at the end, it will help eliminate the smell of apple cider vinegar.
Of course, never apply vinegar and baking soda at the same time, because one is acidic and the other is alkaline, which would neutralize their effects.
Conclusion
The first results will be visible after just a few initial applications.
Later your hair will thicken, become stronger, shinier, healthier, and will also grow much faster.
