Even though many people use it for one or two things, the fact is that baking soda can be used for many things. In the recent period, the use of baking soda has reached record high levels because of a scientific study that has found a new health benefit of using baking soda.
It turns out that baking soda affects the quality of human hair. It may sound a little bit odd, but it’s true. Baking soda will remove any traces of conditioner and shampoo that might be left after you’ve washed your hair and on top of that, your hair will become shinier after only a few treatments.
So, replace your standard shampoo with baking soda and you will soon notice the difference.
Those who are aware of all the benefits and the structure of baking soda won’t be surprised that this compound is so helpful.

Baking Soda Shampoo Recipe
To start with, take one part of baking soda and three parts of water and mix them well. The amount depends on the length of your hair. For instance, in case you have shoulder length hair, take 3 tablespoons of baking soda and 3 times more water.
Use a small or medium size squeeze bottle to mix all the ingredients. Remember to change the amount of baking soda of water depending on the length of your hair.
Use this homemade remedy/shampoo to a wet or dry hair. Begin with the roots and go all the way to the ends. The mixture should be left for 2-3 minutes on the hair and after that, you should rinse it well. Use warm water to rinse the mixture.
Once the hair is washed and rinsed, you should put some vinegar rinse on it.
Make a combination of one part of apple cider vinegar and four parts of water. In case you can’t stand the smell of vinegar, you can use a couple of drops of peppermint, lavender or rosemary oil in this mixture. The best idea is to make a larger amount of this rinse and keep it in a squeeze bottle in the bathroom.
Simply, move your head back and keep your eyes closed. With the help of this position, you will stay safe from the chance to expose your eyes to the vinegar mixture that can be quite uncomfortable for the eyes. Use the rinse all over the hair, leave it for few seconds, and then rinse your hair with cold water.
