The subject of many of my online conversations this week has been the Low Poo and No Poo shampoo method. Basically using hair washes and rinses that are low in chemicals or have no chemicals in. I'm doing this as I'm trying to lead a simpler life and use less chemicals, I also need to use things that don't leave residue in my hair otherwise I'll end up with mouldy hair. (Sounds nice doesn't it?)
I have tried a couple of different methods. First I tried a coconut milk and castile soap mix with nag champa oil. I find this works really well for my hair. (I have dreads) It leaves it really clean and smelling lovely. I then tried using aloe gel and coconut milk. I found that with this my hair got greasy quicker and felt quite waxy after I'd washed it.
Next I tried a rinse for afterwards. I used jasmine green tea but you can use green or black tea. I find it makes my hair really soft and smells lovely. I have yet to try apple cider vinegar but it is on my 'to try out list'.
