Ingredients Used in Making Simple Natural Shampoo

Before I introduce you to the ingredients; it’s important we understand the mixing ratio of these ingredients. For better result; use ratio 1 : 3. That simply means, for every 1 cup of baking soda, you will need 3 cups of water. Irrespective of your measuring tools.

1. Baking soda (1 Cup)
2. Water (3 Cups)
3. Perfume (as desired) – optional

Step By Step Guide To Make Simple Natural Shampoo

Step 1: Mix the 3 cups of water with the 1 cup of backing soda in a large bowl. Make sure you wash this bowl after use; so you don’t ingest any residue of the baking soda that might be left behind.

Step 2: Mix thoroughly, to make sure the mixture isn’t clumpy.

Step 3: Add perfume to the mixture if you like to use one, and mix properly.

Step 4: Then pour the mixture in a spray bottle and use.

Step 5: After you have properly massaged the mixture into your hair. Make sure you rinse as you would with a regular shampoo.

Quick Tip: For extra shine; you can use apple cider vinegar to rinse before you finally rinse again with ordinary water.
