If it says “organic” in the product description expect to pay a premium price for that product.  If the pricing of organic hair conditioner creates heart problems, you can always choose to make your own organic hair products.

Here are some of the ingredients you will need to make your own organic hair conditioner at home.  Eggs, yogurt, fruit, coconut oil, avocados, honey, cider vinegar, chamomile and oils are all essential ingredients in most recipes for organic hair conditioner.  The better quality of the ingredients makes better quality products.  By using certified organic fruits, vegetables and other ingredients will give you the best results by far.

Due to their organic nature it is best to use your recipes shortly after missing and allow the products to remain on the hair for a few hours to do the job.  The extra time is necessary because there are no added chemicals to speed the process along.  Since your organic hair conditioner has no preservatives it is important to store any unused portion of the recipe in an air tight container to prevent it from spoiling and getting moldy.   You will want to experiment with different fruits to create different scents along with other ingredients to get to the desired effect.  There is a product that is sold by a company called Nature Girl Lemon Thyme Cream Rinse.  The reviewer gushed about how it squeaked off her hair while leaving the smell that it says it has lingering in her hair.

If you are a citrus person you will want to use various combinations of lemons, limes and grapefruit for that clean citrus smell.  If citrus is too strong you can dilute it somewhat by using some aromatic herbs in combination like thyme, rosemary or sage.  The key is coming up with a recipe for organic hair conditioner that has a great scent but conditions your hair properly.

There are so many ways to make organic shampoo at home from your own recipe. You will find that some of the ingredients are shared throughout most formulations but the herbal aspect can vary wildly. For example, here is a popular home organic shampoo recipe:

5 drops of essential oil (any type)
1 tablespoon of glycerin
2 cups of hot chamomile tea
3 tablespoons of grated castile soap

Another recipe involves using ingredients according to your hair color or type. For example, tea of calendula is said to bring out the shine and highlights in red hair. Brunettes can benefit form using tea of sage or rosemary and those with gray hair will enjoy using betony which removes the yellow color.

Other possible ingredients in your organic shampoo can be lemon juice, coconut oil and even egg. You can mix the ingredients into a blender and use as normal shampoo.

You can save a lot of money by making your own shampoo. All of the ingredients are extremely cheap and generally easily found. You can make large quantities of shampoo for less than what you’d buy a normal bottle for, and one recipe can last several months or more. Some people refrigerate or freeze the shampoo in order to keep larger quantities for longer.

These organic hair shampoo recipes will have your hair feeling better than it ever has before, and you’ll also be helping the environment by not contributing to the millions of tons of chemical waste from shampoo that goes down the drain every year. Its fun putting together your organic hair shampoo recipes and once you have successfully tried one, you can be free to experiment with various ingredients – who knows, you may just come up with a fantastic recipe that others are willing to pay for.
