How about some shampoo?

I have salon highlights, but I use this shampoo to keep my color fresh looking.

Shampoo for Highlights.....

1/4 cup liquid Castile Soap
2Tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1/4 cup Distilled Water
1tsp. Lemon Zest

Heat all ingredients in the microwave on high for 1 or 2 minutes, get hot but not boiling. Let cool, and strain into a bottle or container with a tight fitting lid. Make sure to strain out the zest. Shampoo as normal and rinse.

Don't have highlights? No problem, here is another shampoo recipe.

Chamomile Shampoo.....

7 Chamomile Tea Bags
5Tbsp Soap Flakes
2Tbsp Glycerin
1 1/2 cups Distilled Water

Boil water and steep tea bags for about 30 minutes. Take out tea bags and throw them away, add flakes and glycerin, stirring until flakes are melted and everything is blended together. Pour into a bottle with a tight fitting lid. Shampoo as normal. As a side note, you can add a couple drops of Fragrance oil to this if you want a more smelly shampoo, just add them while you are blending the melted flakes.

Coming tomorrow, a pooch bar. Soap that will make you love to cuddle your favorite pooches.
