I'd put it up and stick a scarf on it til you can sort it out.

I know how you feel Bunnysaur. I ended up doing a deep oil treatment today cause I accidentally got carried away with the castor oil on my scalp, so I doused the rest of it with olive oil, put it up in a plastic cap and towel wrap for a few hours, then CO washed it out. Only I don't think the CO wash got it all, because I can still smell the castor oil and it still looks greasy at my roots, even though it doesn't necessarily feel greasy. I'm thinking I'm going to end up having to wash it again tomorrow to really get the oil out.

I decided there was absolutely no way I was going to sleep with this stringy mess, so I just poured a metric crap ton (OK, like 4 TBSPs... ) of ACV in my pitcher, filled it with the purified water and doused my head. It feels LOTS better. I think I'm going to have to use ACV constantly if I'm going to use the shampoo bars... Which is a shame, because I LOOOOOOOOVE the smells of the different bars Hopefully my shower filter thingy will make a difference...

You can also try lemon instead of ACV if you don't like the smell. I know they sell bottles of lemon juice at the grocery store.

ETA: Also, remind me never to use cassia again. Hair loves henna, hates cassia..

It's not that I don't like the smell of ACV (I actually love it) it's that I'd rather my hair smell like the shampoo bar.

Thanks! I couldn't resist, thought it was perfect for summer.

Yeah, the shampoo bar scent rarely sticks around on me, either. It depends on what one I'm using. I'll try washing with a few different ones to see if any have a stronger lasting scent and get back to you if you'd like.

Have you considered adding a few of the same essential oils to your ACV mix? That might bump up the smell a little.


ETA: I just went and found my poo bar stash. I have Chamomile Ylang, Lavender Orange and a Peppermint bar. The peppermint has the strongest smell. These are from Sweet Creek Herbs, by the way.

Getting there, carolinaberry! PS I love your tattoo!

Thank you! It also makes for a nifty hair-growth marker!

That's what I use mine for too!

Haha. I was actually admiring your back tattoos in a posting you did of your progress! Do yours go all the way down? I have a galaxy of stars snaking down my spine under my lotus flower to my lower back tattoo.

Bunnysaur, have you tried EO's? When I was doing the no poo thing and using ACV I always scented it. Usually rosemary, or lemongrass/clary sage...if I was feeling decadent rose, in the winter sandalwood etc.

The smell hangs around and is very pleasant.
