Hair care products are some of the worst offenders when it comes to toxic body care products. When you’re washing your hair you want to wash all the nasty stuff out, without putting more in. This easy to mix up shampoo is safe for kids and babies too but I would avoid peppermint for them because they might get it in their eyes!
- 1 cup Liquid Castile Soap
- ½ cup canned coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon aloe vera gel
- 1 teaspoon carrier oil of your choice
- 1 teaspoon magnesium gel
- 25 drops pure essential oils
- 10 drops vitamin E oil
- 10 drops argan oil (this is also great for smoothing flyaways as a natural alternative to silicone based products)
- 5 drops each carrot seed oil and red raspberry seed oil [optional for color-treated hair]
- Blend well using an immersion blender, or by shaking vigorously in a glass jar.
- Store in an 16-ounce glass pump bottle for easy dispensing.
- Lavender, Lemon, Tea Tree, and Rose are all great oils for hair care. Peppermint and rosemary are great to stimulate hair growth. Mix and match as you like!
