DIY Shampoo is an easy and inexpensive way to make sure you know exactly what ingredients are in your hair care products. These shampoos and “conditioners” are very simple to make and effective to use. They will not be “creamy” or solid, so I use them in a spray bottle. They will lather, but the mixture itself will be runny. My favorite is the Peppermint Shampoo and I even add 1/8 of a teaspoon Tea Tree Oil!

Does this work for dyed hair?
I color my hair and I use it everyday. Although you will need to test it on a small area to make sure.
