Have you tried washing with baking soda paste and rinsing with vinegar?

But I must admit to using color with chemicals to color myself back to my natural dark auburnish brown, but never more often than every 3 months. I am just not happy with the gray at my temples and crown.<BR/>Thanks for setting a great example and sharing it.sundaycyncehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07055477023384793539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-4755909095135917742007-07-18T11:37:00.000+01:002007-07-18T11:37:00.000+01:00green hair would be curious! i'm also of the group...green hair would be curious! i'm also of the group that doesn't do SLS and chemicals in shampoo, though they're tough to find in small town italy, and cost the earth! we tried making a shampoo from the soap nuts we have for the washing machine, it says you can do so! cutting my hair is good fun too, i wear it quite short, stand in front of the mirror, take off my glasses (risky, i know, but they get in the way!) and cut! it's fun! how do you dry your hair quickly in winter without catching cold? i am curious! please let us know! since december we have decided to live without a fridge, and so far it's going well, but i would need help for winter hairdrying techniques!shadows and cloudshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03620245581727982223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-11847511755380743872007-07-17T12:50:00.000+01:002007-07-17T12:50:00.000+01:00Catherine - yes Lush are pretty green, nice produc...Catherine - yes Lush are pretty green, nice products too. <BR/><BR/>Chiefbiscuit - thanks!Crafty Green Poethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02486633917197181851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-52807270516745778812007-07-17T12:05:00.000+01:002007-07-17T12:05:00.000+01:00I've just discovered Lush shamppos and conditioner...I've just discovered Lush shamppos and conditioners, which are fairly "green" I think.

I became aware back in 1970 when we started gardening organically, composting and erasing chemicals out of our lives. It's not all that difficult, and today, believe it or not it's easier to be green than when we started. Back then we had to make all our own bread, yogurt, and peanut butter because it wasn't available in the retail outlets. I'll stop here before I get to long winded. ;-)<BR/>relrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09030572981830789370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-81805753473070676732007-07-16T00:18:00.000+01:002007-07-16T00:18:00.000+01:00I do put a wash out color on it to hide a few bits...I do put a wash out color on it to hide a few bits of grey!
