1 bunch of nettle tips (fresh)
7 tablespoons of grated hard soap
1.5 liters of water

Orange, lemon and grapefruit shampoo for oily hair

The cause of the appearance of oily hair is the excessive production of capillary fat. The non-excessive production is normal, since in the roots of the hair we find the sebaceous glands, which cause the secretion of a fatty substance that helps the hair to be soft and healthy, protecting it from dryness and possible breakage.

What do you need?

3 tablespoons of lemon, orange and grapefruit juice (ie 3 for each fruit)
Lemon, orange and grapefruit shells
7 tablespoons of grated hard soap
Cider vinegar

Steps to make the orange, lemon and grapefruit shampoo

First squeeze the lemon, orange and grapefruit. Reserve your juices
On a plate grate the orange, lemon and grapefruit. Then pinch them.
In a saucepan put some cider vinegar and boil the citrus peels in it.
When boiling extinguishes the fire, cover and let rest 2 hours.
Now strain and add the grated hard soap. Put again on a low heat and stir with a wooden spoon until the soap dissolves.
Add the citrus juices, and continue stirring.
Turn off the heat and let it rest for 24 hours, with the saucepan covered.
Stir it before using it.

Avocado shampoo for dry hair

Unlike oily hair, dry hair is hair that lacks the necessary moisture in order to maintain a proper appearance as well as good health. In most cases this excess dryness is the result of the appearance of seborrhea, and when the hair is kept dry for a long time it can precipitate hair loss.

What do you need?

20 ml. of avocado oil
1 egg yolk
90 ml. of neutral shampoo

Steps to make the avocado shampoo

In a saucepan put the neutral shampoo.
Add the avocado oil and stir well until you get a paste.
When you are going to use, divide the yolk of the egg white. Mix it with 3 tablespoons of shampoo.
