No-poo "Cheater, Cheater" Update Peace

So I cheated. 

It's for the good of those around me though. 

So, I cheated, but, you're welcome. 

Almost one week after I started the "no-poo" method of washing my hair, my hair turned into a grease ball. I think it's because I put my hair up wet. But still. 

So today I washed my hair with Dr Bronner's Castile bar soap and rinsed with apple cider vinegar. 

My hair definitely feels cleaner after washing with the Castile soap. 

So here's my general thoughts about the "No Poo" method:

Likes:

1. Curlier hair

2. No chemicals 

3. I really like the apple cider vinegar rinse 

Dislikes:

1. The baking soda: It makes my hair feel like straw while I'm cleaning it but, ironically, doesn't feel clean after the fact. 

2. The greasy feeling my hair had after a week or so. And my hair is not naturally greasy. 

3. My hair is much fluffier. For someone with thin hair, this method might work very well! But I'm not okay with making the mane...fluffier. 

So, will I keep it up?? 

Sorta. 

There's a woman locally who makes her own shampoo bars from goats milk (that she milks herself) and honey (that she collects from her own bees). I may give those a try and continue to use the vinegar as a conditioner. 

But I might use shampoo too. 

You never know. 

I'm as unpredictable as the wind.

I know a lot of people have responded to my "No Poo" trial and I encourage you all to try it out for yourselves. Everyone's hair is so very different. It might be the shampoo answer for you! 

Give it a shot and let me know how it goes!!!
