: Any chance you are willing to give your recipe for
: homemade amla shampoo?


Thank you for replying to my question. The experiments continue!!!
As to the shampoo, I mix up equal parts amla, brahmi,
aritha,bhringraj,shikakai,and hibiscus powders with hot liquid ( I
use the herbal infusion du jour...whatever I have cooked up). It can
make large amount, so i refrigerate what I don't use and/or add some
Black willow bark extract or grapeseed extract to preserve it...Add
as much extra liquid to your taste to thin it...or use it thick as a
conditioning hair pack...Last p.m., I mixed up some cassia with the
above and left it on for a couple of hours....having some marshmallow
root added either to the indian herbs or the your herbal infusion
helps alot for softening.....
Sounds like a pain, but you can make a bunch and it is
multifunctional (cleaning and conditioning)...I get bulk herbs from
banyanbotanicals.com and fromnaturewithlove.com
