Homemade shampoo for dry hair with mustard
This shampoo is suitable only for those with oily scalps, but even they are not recommended to use this type of cleansing all the time, since mustard dries out their hair.
Dilute a couple of tablespoons of mustard with water to a creamy consistency. Wet your hair with water and then apply the mustard mixture to your scalp, massage lightly and rinse with water. If the ends of your hair are dry, then do not allow mustard to get on them.
Lately, it has become increasingly difficult to find a shampoo in the store that does not harm your hair. Almost all manufacturers add many harmful preservatives and sulfates to their products, which gradually weaken not only the hair, but also the skin and roots. Therefore, in order to avoid such problems, more and more girls are starting to think about how to make shampoo with their own hands. In fact, preparing a healthy mixture at home is not difficult, and there are many recipes for this, which we will consider below.
Shampoo base
It is known that in past times, when there were no shampoos, women used certain products and herbs to wash their hair. But since such natural products do not foam, the procedure becomes boring and even time-consuming. For this reason, not everyone is ready to use these products to wash their hair. But progress does not stand still, and today, in order to prepare high-quality shampoo at home, you can purchase a soap base to which natural substances are added. This important ingredient can be found in specialty stores or in pharmacies. As an alternative, you can purchase a simple shampoo that does not contain all kinds of additives, dyes, flavors and other “useful” ingredients. This is very important because any preservative is harmful. Having found a suitable base, it can be enriched with the necessary herbs, vitamins, aromas and other ingredients as desired.
Cooking principle
How to make homemade shampoos? Everything is extremely simple. Really useful components are added to the soap base: herbs, vitamins and essential oils. But it is not recommended to immediately mix them with the entire base. You need to take a clean bottle and put a little soap component into it so that it is enough only for two times. Our healing preparations are added to this container one by one. After sealing the bottle with a lid, shake it thoroughly. After a day you can wash your hair useful composition. It is important to note that shampoo prepared by yourself cannot be stored. for a long time, otherwise all substances will lose their properties.
Types of shampoos
It is known that depending on the structure and characteristics of the hair, a care product is selected. Each person has a different skin type that requires individual care. There are shampoos for dry, normal and oily hair. There are also anti-fragility, shine, health, growth, dandruff and hair loss products. The interesting thing is that any girl has the opportunity to prepare shampoo at home, which will perform the necessary functions. And also - and this is the most important thing - as long as you use homemade products, your curls will take a break from chemicals, become strong, healthy and beautiful.
The role of vitamin supplements
Typically, vitamins are added to shampoo for a specific purpose - to make hair strong and prevent it from becoming brittle. But not everyone knows what role this or that component plays.
Vitamin A (or retinol) has the property of activating and accelerating metabolic processes, so it is added to provide nutrition to the hair.
Vitamin C is indispensable in the fight against fragility. This ingredient makes hair stronger and more elastic.
B vitamins normalize the sebaceous glands and also reduce allergies, which is very important for sensitive skin.
Vitamin E is also important because it inhibits cell aging. But dandruff, various diseases and damage to the scalp, hormonal imbalance- all this can cause hair loss.
By the way, note that shampoo can be mixed with either one vitamin component or several at once.
The role of plant components
You can add not only vitamins to homemade shampoos, but also other products that also perform one or another function.
To speed up hair growth, people have long resorted to using burdock and nettle roots.
If inflammatory processes or irritation occur, chamomile and string are used.
Juniper and rosemary help solve the problem of dandruff.
You need to add very little broth to the base, so it is prepared highly concentrated. In addition to herbs, essential oils are added to hair shampoo. They have different effects on the strands, so their properties must be taken into account.
If the hair is dry, add rosewood, sandalwood, mandarin, chamomile, lavender, myrrh, and jasmine oil.
For oily hair, use clove, almond, tea tree, lemon, mint, lemon balm, cedar, geranium or grape seed oil.
For hair loss, cypress, ylang-ylang, tea tree, pine, incense.

A few secrets for beautiful hair
I would like to note that the use of homemade shampoos is necessary not only to solve the main problems, which are often dry or greasy hair. Such products additionally produce a healing effect.
If you want your curls to remain shiny and comb well at the same time, you need to crush and add a regular aspirin tablet to your shampoo.
Try to rinse your hair with herbal infusion every time. Chamomile, celandine, oak bark, and nettle are suitable as the main components.
To improve the condition of the hair follicles, you need to do a light scalp massage once a week. It is advisable to carry out the procedure before washing your hair.
Many girls dry their hair by wrapping it in a towel. It is advisable not to do this, since the fungus can spread rapidly under such a damp hood.
If you are the owner blonde hair, you can make dry shampoo for yourself. To do this, purchase regular starch and rub it into the scalp and hair. After waiting about ten minutes, you need to wipe your hair well with a dry towel and comb out any remaining starch. True, you can use such an express product a couple of times a month, not more often.
To ensure healthy hair, you also need to control your diet. Try to give up unhealthy foods and don’t forget about vitamins.
We all want to have long and luxurious hair, so we try to choose special cosmetics to care for it. But you don’t have to buy expensive shampoos at the pharmacy or on store shelves, because some of them are just a well-promoted brand. You can quite easily and quickly prepare a miraculous suspension at home.
