my hair is always better during the summer, it LOVES sea water. But I absolutely avoid pools, it's not only really bad for hair but skin also, makes it all gross and blergh. Just no. Besides I noticed my kids started to get pimples in their scalp last summer, it took me a while to discover it was from the swimming pool, so I'll have to find another way to entertain them this summer lol.
What kinda oil do you use?
Also, the more you touch your hair the quicker it gets oily = more washes. Try to control yourself and you'll b able to push off your wash days.
@mermaiden
it was just curiosity, really. I just wanted to know if Tresemme has a free sulfate line.
If you're happy with your method, I'm happy too.
@Tauriel
care to share recipes?
I'm always looking for alternatives. I like to experiment.
@Jess
totally agree with you. I cut off all processed stuff from my house, from cleaning products to food.
I'm currently using natural soaps from a local store so personal hygiene and rustic bar soap or vinegar for house cleaning.
As far as lotions and stuff like that goes, the only thing I can't substitute is the solar protection, I can't find a recipe I can make with ingredients I can use.
I never tried making my own soaps but I'm very tempted to try this summer. Any recipe you would like to share?
@Shannon
10 points to you for donating your hair.
@kittycat

I tried coconut oil once, but it was so hard to get it out without shampoo. Ugh. I loved the smell tho. Wish I could use it again.
I keep a bottle of shampoo in the bathroom closet just for visitors. Some people freak out when they don't see a store bottle in the shower. Freaks.
@blue
give up on the shampoo, dandruff might disappear for good.
When you go to the shower gently massage your scalp with warm water for a couple of minutes, proceed with your usual routine and in the end use cold (or lukewarm if you can't handle the cold) water without massaging it.
You could try a vinegar wash too before the cold wash. 1 lt of water with 1 tbsp of apple cider vinegar.
And I have no idea what's a "salt n pepper hair" lol
