The shampoo I used to use was out of the market. I’ve been trying different brands, yet to find one that’s good for my hairs. Then I remember Mary Ellen in one of the episodes asking her mom (?) to pour vinegar over her washed hairs. Anyone knows what vinegar does to our hairs? Make them shinny…clean…  Just curious…. actually I’ve tried it 2 times after I washed my hairs, doesn’t seem to make any difference…  |

You shouldn't use straight vinegar as it's to strong. Mix one part vinegar and one part water. The rinse will leave your hair soft and smooth. Leaving the vinegar rinse on your hair helps prevent tangles in long hair. Since the vinegar restores natural pH it also helps prevent an itchy scalp. As your hair is drying you will smell vinegar, but once your hair dries, no smell.

That is all I use on my hair. No shampoo at all. Just conditioner. I rub it through my hair just like shampoo (just no bubbles) then rinse out. It is like the WEN system but much cheaper. I use any kind of conditioner that strikes my fancy and is on sale on my hair. |

Raw eggs are good for your hair too.
"The [raw] egg is really the best of all worlds," says Janice Cox, author of Natural Beauty at Home. The yolk, rich in fats and proteins, is naturally moisturizing, while the white, which contains bacteria-eating enzymes, removes unwanted oils, she explains.
To Use: For normal hair, use the entire egg to condition hair; use egg whites only to treat oily hair; use egg yolks only to moisturize dry, brittle hair, Cox says. Use 1/2 cup of whichever egg mixture is appropriate for you and apply to clean, damp hair. If there isn't enough egg to coat scalp and hair, use more as needed. Leave on for 20 minutes, rinse with cool water (to prevent egg from "cooking") and shampoo hair. Whole egg and yolks-only treatments can be applied once a month; whites-only treatment can be applied every two weeks.

I am such a stickler for soap, soap, and more soap.....the more soap the better! LOL! I would have a rough time adapting to a system like WEN, although it is supposed to be so much better for one's hair. |

I would have a rough time adapting to a system like WEN, although it is supposed to be so much better for one's hair. I had bought WEN one time but it is very expensive. It worked great but the cost!  Then I read an article in the New York Times about the "no shampoo" hair care. And how it was basically the premise of WEN where you use a "shampoo" that is really just conditioner (no bubbles and no sulfates). I thought I would try it and it works great. My hair is soft and shiny like when I was a child. I do have thick, coarse hair so it works great for me as it tames my "wild side". |

not for hair but saw Vinegar. For coughs use a table spoon of soaked in vinegar - it works as well as any cough medicine. When I was little our doctor told my mother that cough medicine was mainly sugar and that this would work. - it did!

Actually I don't have problems with my hair, just that whatever shampoo I use, my hair gets dirty quickly & then of course itchy (but not crazy itchy), & I don't like to have to wash my hair so often. Anyway, thanks a lot, will try your suggestion. Take care

The problem whatever shampoo I use doesn't seem to work, my hair gets oily & greasy quickly, & then itchy.... I don't like to wash my hair too often. Frank suggests that I should have the hair style like Yul Brynner! haha |

I use this shampoo Damage Ready and this conditioner Damage Readyonce a month. (my hair is not damaged) I use this shampoo Clove Shampoo and this conditioner Clove Conditioner once a week on the weeks I do not use the above. I only place an order every two years as I water down the clove shampoo and buy two of the clove conditioner. Buy the best and skip the rest. It is cheaper in the long run. I have tried the baking soda wash with the vinegar rinse and did not like it. The longest I have gone not washing my hair was three weeks. It did not smell, itch, or look too funky. I kept it in a ponytail and actually added coconut oil to it a couple times a week. |

Oh and I do not have proof of this, but I think the whole purpose of the shampoo & conditioner thing is to create a ph balance and that is it.
I don't think that we are really cleaning our hair and that is proven by those that only "wash" with conditioner. I think we think we are cleaning our hair. Most of the shampoos have the same ingredients as those use to clean our floors.
I use cheap conditioner to make my fabric softeners.

Frank suggests that I should have the hair style like Yul Brynner! haha Try washing with conditioner. My scalp gets itchy with shampoo. I guess it dries out my scalp. But conditioner does not do that. Yul Brenner! Tell Frank to shave his head first! Then we will make a decision about our hair! |

Just get Frank to wash your hair. If you do, I bet he lets you paint his fingernails! As if he would EVER let you do THAT! |

Just curious…. actually I’ve tried it 2 times after I washed my hairs, doesn’t seem to make any difference…
