When I first decide to loc I looked up how to wash my hair. Dr. Bonner's Liquid Castille Soap came up quite a few times. I knew I had to dilute it, but couldn't figure out the right measurement. Every trial left my hair cloudy. So, I just stuck to my Garnier Nutrisse and added tea tree oil to the bottle. Then I came across a concentrate recipe:
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup liquid castille soap
1/2 tsp of olive oil
My hair reacts well to tea tree oil so I added it along with rosemary oil.
I put all the ingredients in a plastic bottle in a twist tip bottle. All this was done last week. This week, I applied the concentrate directly to my scalp and massaged it in. I got a pretty good lather. Lather, rinse, repeat, and I was done. Miracle of all miracles my hair looked black rather than the grey it looks when it's still dirty.
I'm so excited. I have one more shampoo recipe to try, but for now I'm glad that I finally found one that works.
