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.
