Shampoo Free Day 6

So, I washed with baking soda, rinsed with vinegar last night, and did a coconut oil treatment last night. I rinsed my hair this morning, but did not wash or rinse it again.

So far today, it looks like I have product in it that is making it look wet. It does feel a bit heavy and greasy. I need to find a better balance I think, because this is not how I want my hair to fell, although my curls do look good!

The site that I found all of this info on says it takes at least a couple of weeks to get to a happy balance, and despite those that might want me to fail ;), I am not giving up.

Shampoo Free Day Five

So, I took a shower before bed, washed with baking soda, rinsed with vinegar, and then, I put coconut oil in my hair. It is very nice. My hands were coated, so I put it all over. We will see how I feel in the morning, or how long it takes me to break out all over!

I also think that the vinegar might be irritating my neck, so I put anti- itch cream on my neck. We will see how that works too.

I will try and rinse the coconut oil out in the morning, I might have to use shampoo, and that might be the straw that breaks my wills back!

Good Night!

Shampoo Free Day 5

Last night my hair felt heavy with product when I went to bed. Probably because I was so wind blown from going to and from school. It is more tangled, and doesn't feel as soft when I touch it. However, it looks fine, and the curls are better I think. They do not seem weighed down like they did before. Did I say that already?

This morning I did not use baking soda, only vinegar, like yesterday, I think? I do not stink, and I do not smell the vinegar, so I guess it is going well.

No baking soda, yes to vinegar... Hair seemed harder to manage, but looks and feels fine an hour and a half later...
That is all,

Shampoo Free Day Three

Didn't shower yesterday, but my son did brush my hair, and he said my hair was less tangled. Today, Monday, I did "wash" with baking soda, and rinse with vinegar. Same son, because I only have one, said that it smelled kinda vinegar-y. However, once dry, it was OK. I did not do it the same way I usually do, but it seemed OK. 

As I am getting ready to go to bed, it does feel a little strange, but I am sticking with it, at least until something terrible happens!

When My Grrrl gets home, I am going to get my hair trimmed, we will see what difference that might make?

That is all,

Trying Something New

Yesterday I started washing my hair with baking soda only, and rinsing it with vinegar. I did it before we went to Nana's. We drove Marie home. With all of that driving, I was wind blown, but not any worse than normal. Since I was sweaty, and going out to dinner with friends I took another quick shower, and rinsed with vinegar again, and then I used a tiny bit of product in my hair. Since it is still hot,and I do not have AC in my van, I was a bit windblown when I got to dinner, but again. no worse than normal. I am super tired today, so I don't know if I will even shower, but since I do not need to do the baking soda daily, that might be OK.

That is all for now.
