I found this recipe at Camp Wander--Rosemary Lavender Hair Rinse. Rebecca has an amazing blog! Go check it out: Camp Wander
I have very thin, fine hair. I am loving how my hair feels after using this rinse! It feels much thicker and softer!
Hannah (10) is using this, too and she likes how soft her hair has become. She was a little skeptical at first, because of the vinegar smell.....but, the vinegar smell dissipates quickly and all that is left is the wonderful scent of rosemary and lavender.
I made the batch in a quart mason jar. I place some in a condiment bottle from WalMart and leave it on the edge of the tub. We use it up pretty quickly and then I refill from the jar. I'm needing some waterproof labels because the one on the condiment bottle is quickly disintegrating :0)
Essential oils can leach the toxins out of plastic, so you want to be careful and store them in glass jars or metal.
I am bending the rules here a little for ease of use. It's kind of difficult to pour from the jar. And, the liquid doesn't stay in the condiment bottle for long.
This stays cool in the bottle and during the winter was a shock to add to your hair after a nice hot bath or shower, however it should be very refreshing in the summertime!!
