This shampoo is so gentle that everyone in the family can use it
babies, children, and adults. It'll quickly become a favorite.
Gentle enough to use everyday. The conditioner is simple to make and
works wonderfully to condition and soften your hair.


Shampoo Ingredients:

2 cups distilled water
1 tablespoon calendula (pot marigold)
2 teaspoons (10 ml) rosemary
1 tablespoon (15 ml) nettle
2 teaspoons (10 ml) orange peel
2 teaspoons (10 ml) comfrey
2 tablespoons (30 ml) chamomile
1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) essential oil of lavender
1/2 cup (118 ml) all-natural, gentle baby shampoo

Bring water to a boil and remove from heat. Add the
herbs, cover, and allow to steep for 30 minutes. Strain mixture into
a medium-sized bowl, add essential oil of lavender and mix well. Add
the shampoo and gently stir until thoroughly mixed. Pour into a
labeled bottle and keep refrigerated to preserve the freshness. You
may keep a small bottle in the shower with enough shampoo for about
one week, if you wish.

Don't worry when this shampoo doesn't lather up as much as
your regular shampoo does. It will still clean your hair
beautifully, but doesn't contain the strong foaming agents that
strong shampoos do.

To use, shake the shampoo very well before use and use as you
would your regular shampoo. Rinse very well and repeat if necessary.

Herbal Lore

In Medieval times, evil spirits ere blamed for illness. Perhaps garlic's reputation for warding off vampires and evil eye springs from its ability to rid people of various ailments.

Wise Tips

The addition of honey to herbal infusions that have diuretic qualities lessens this effect considerably. For instance, chamomile tea is often drunk before going to bed to promote a deep, restful sleep. However, as chamomile is a diuretic, this can be counterproductive if it makes you wake up to urinate. Simple adding a heaped teaspoon of organic honey to your night-time cup of chamomile tea will allow you to sleep the night through comfortably.
