View Full Version : Am I the only one using BS?
Hypnotica May 3rd, 2008, 08:37 AM :bs:
Yes, as in Baking Soda! :)
I use baking soda as poo every wash at the scalp and every 3-4:th wash I use a bs solution on my lenghts to remove build-up. After washing I use a low cone condish.
Are there anyone else that use bs every wash as poo?

The extra shine is due to being newly henna'ed :)
n3m3sis42 May 3rd, 2008, 09:06 AM I did for about a year, up until March of this year.
I was pretty happy with it, too, but then I switched to shampoo bars. They just looked so awesome that I couldn't resist!
cscheck May 3rd, 2008, 10:12 AM I wash once a week and always with baking soda followed by conditioner. It consistently gives me very good results, much better than shampoo, so I've been doing it for awhile.
Elistariel May 3rd, 2008, 10:22 AM I am now tempted to try this.
teela1978 May 3rd, 2008, 10:22 AM I don't use it every wash, but I've been playing around with it lately. I can go a week or 2 on just baking soda washes followed by an acv rinse. I'm a greasy girl though and I need a good sls wash to get rid of it occasionally though (having hard water seems to neccesitate this for me).
tmmycat May 3rd, 2008, 10:58 AM I tried it but it made my hair feel very coarse and rough. maybe I used too much?? (I used about a tablespoon in two cups of water). it took 2 weeks for my hair to get back to normal.
girlcat36 May 3rd, 2008, 11:02 AM I use in mixed in a bottle with water as a pre-poo rinse. I love it, but I am afraid to use more than every couple of weeks.
rosieposie May 3rd, 2008, 02:09 PM I wash everyday (major scalp greasies) and use this method around once a week. It seems to work for me.
soleluna May 3rd, 2008, 02:27 PM Do you put it in your poo or use it alone? how? thanks

I make a solution of a few tsp bs with water from the shower (1-2 cups?), and then pour it over my head while very gently rubbing my scalp. I can get by with this instead of shampoo for about a week. I need an acv rinse afterwards though.
Loviatar May 3rd, 2008, 04:18 PM I CO every other day, but once a fortnight I use baking soda to wash and then I condition. I mix 2 tbsp soda with water to make a paste, put it in a small squeezy bottle with some more water, and apply it like a scalp wash/roots only wash.
My roots and the virgin hennaed areas love it, but the damaged ends dry out a little too much for my liking.
I would like to use BS and CO like this exclusively, but my hair hasnt adjusted to no-poo-at-all yet.
Oh and I never use BS in my shampoo, it's too drying for me.
Nat242 May 3rd, 2008, 06:43 PM I used to - but it required an SMT afterwards, which is too time consuming for an every other day washer! I still use it about once a month, though.
