Making Herbal Shampoo at Home
Questions: Can I make herbal shampoo at home?
Answer: Using any herbal product for the making of shampoo will give you a herbal shampoo. One of the easiest ones to make is the one with shikekai. Wash 200gms of dried olives and 200gms of shikekai in cold water and soak them in an iron vessel. The next morning, boil the decoction for about 10-15 minutes. Mash the thick residue into the water and strain. Use this to wash the hair. This shampoo leaves the hair soft and silky.
You can also make the home made herbal shampoo by using reetha and shikekai. Soak 125gms each of reetha, shikakai and amla in 1 liter of water. Keep it aside for 24 hours. Boil and allow the mixture to cool. Strain and use it to shampoo the hair. It is a very good way to wash the hair without harming it.
