Christina Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 http://www.creativehomemaking.com/cleaning/make-laundry-soap.shtmlI found this recipe a while back. It's actually what got me into soap making, I was broke and needed some laundry detergent, so I looked online for something I could use to replace it. Anyway, It's just homemade soap, water and vinegar. It's made into a gel. I know it's meant for laundry detergent, but since vinegar is something people use on their hair anyway (for shine), couldn't this be used as a shampoo? Maybe I'm naive, I AM new at this.Christina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christina Posted January 16, 2007 Author Share Posted January 16, 2007 OK, well, if no one knows the answer to that, can someone tell me if I'd need a preservative in it? Christina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamp_deb Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I use my regular bar soap to shampoo so I don't see why not, give it a try. As far as the preservative the vinegar may be enough to keep the germs and mold away. You can always use your bar soap to shampoo, then a vinegar and water mix to rinse away any residue left on your hair. Less mixing involved and you can mix your vinegar and water as you need it.
