Well I got this recipe from my Mom. She has had classic length hair in her childhood. I thought you may also find it useful.
As she said her scalp has been so sensitive to shampoos and they dried her hair out, so my grandma used Sidr to wash her hair but with a recipe that does not dry your hair at all.
You need egg yolk, Tragacanth and Sidr.
Chop the Tragacanth to as small pieces as possible and soak 2 teaspoones in one cup of hot water overnight or as much as possible (forms a jelly-like solution). add 3 tablespoons of Sidr powder and mix well, then add one egg yolk (I used the egg white for a facial mask) and mix. you may need to change the amount based on your hair length.
Apply to wet hair. Try to apply both to scalp and hair length. You can use a shower cap and give it some time or wash it without waiting. Rinsing takes time and is some how hard! if you use a wide-toothed comb it will be much easier. But to make it easier do not make a mess of your hair over you hair while you are applying. Let them all be in their place.
After rinsing I conditioned my hair as usual. It is not dry at all and shines more than ever!
Tell me about your ideas to improve the recipe and your experience!
