☼ pH Balanced Shampoo ☼ Aloe Almond Shampoo

So, after a ton of research (which at first was aimed at my horse), I have discovered that my coconut milk shampoo is a little bit to alkaline for my hair. Now, I use ACV afterwards, so ultimately my hair is being balanced by the end of my shower, but still, if there is room for improvement, why not improve it?

I was going to try the no 'poo method with baking soda, but I just...don't want to really. And the castile soap I use is close enough to baking soda that I might as well use it..(it's only 0.6 more alkaline), because it is still more natural than baking soda.

So here is what the new recipe is:

Aloe Almond Shampoo (pH balanced)

3/4 cup aloe vera juice (inner fillet)
1/4 cup Dr. Bronners Almond Castile Liquid Soap
20 drops jojoba oil
10 drops peppermint oil
1/2 teaspoon vegetable glycerin

The pH of this shampoo should be between 5 and 6. But I will let you know the exact number I get when I get a chance to test it with my pH strips.

Also, you don't want to make a big batch of this stuff because aloe juice lasts between 45-60 days refrigerated, so you'll want to make a batch that will last you about a month at most, so you aren't in danger of using spoiled product.

Just the way it is with natural products.
