DAY 75-My Going Shampoo-Free

At the risk of losing many of you as my friends and followers, I am about to make a confession! Since Thanksgiving, I have only been using the three pictured items above to wash my hair! I know that it sounds a bit insane and down right nasty, but I'm telling you that it works! And I have been loving the results! I got the idea from my amazing friend, Rachel C. and am so glad that I took her for her word and tried this out for myself. (For those still reading this far, she got all her info here....)
I was a bit skeptical at first and tried it out of pure friendship...okay...saving a ton of money on shampoo also crossed my mind. But after my  first wash, I knew that I was hooked! My hair has always been kind of dry, coarse and unmanageable...after washing my hair with the baking soda and water and then conditioning it with apple vinegar and water, my hair felt better and actually obeyed my attempts at doing it! (The apple vinegar does not leave any kind of smell in your hair after rinsing it!)  I have lately added a few drops of Doterra's Citrus Bliss to the baking soda/water and have loved the results of that too! 
My most favorite part of being poo-free is that I can go four days without having to wash my hair...thus saving me so much needed time in the morning for other things! (I have actually gone 6 days a couple of times, simply from not having time to wash, dry, and then style my hair) I have found that my hair is not greasy or nasty feeling as you would expect but actually is softer and less coarse..
even my hair dresser commented on it! 

Thanks, Rachel for sharing this! I am fully converted to the idea of natural shampoo!

I adore this! I shop carefully for shampoo w/o chemicals, and I've heard the ACV can make your hair super soft. There's all kinds of nasty stuff in shampoo like hormone disrupters and parabens that clog up your hair like crazy, so good for you! I've always been one whpo had to shower every day or suffer the consequences of nastiness, but also to save money, I started showering every other day and my body adjusted accordingly after like a week to my surprise and satisfaction, plus my skin looks better from not over drying it. This isn't nasty, iti's awesone! You go girl(0: Imma gonna give this a shot(0:
