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.
Organic Baby Shampoo
For a product to be labeled certified organic it must have at least ninety five (95%) certified organic ingredients and to be labeled containing organic ingredients the percentage must be above seventy (70%) percent. That is impossible with any shampoo or conditioner unless you count the percentage of water in the product. Luckily for parents of babies there are responsible makers of almost organic baby shampoo which will still clean the baby’s hair while eliminating most of the chemicals that can cause problems with a baby’s delicate exterior.
California Baby makes a Tea Tree and Lavender Body Wash and Shampoo in an 8.5 ounce bottle for just under twelve ($12) dollars. It works on dandruff, lice, cradle cap and dermatitis. It is a no tears formula and has no SLS, DEA or numbing agents to cause issues with your baby. The scent is a combination of lavender and tea tree. The tea tree has anti bacterial properties and the lavender helps to calm stressed feelings and any irritated skin and scalp.
Another organic baby shampoo is offered by Angel Baby. Their description touts its being made from a pure gentle castile soap with just enough lavender to calm the user. It comes in a foaming soap dispenser so you can use it at the bathroom sink as well as the tub. The product is also a combination body wash and shampoo and they make the point that they only use certified organic ingredients and the product is also certified “vegan”. This product is in a 5.3 ounce foaming dispenser for $12.95. Unless your child is hyper allergic to most of the baby shampoo products it is very expensive to use organic baby shampoo when Johnson’s sixteen ounce bottle of baby shampoo is less than $3.
