When your hair is weighed down with residue or chemicals, it can stunt hair growth. Baking soda is able to clean your hair better than shampoo can! Using baking soda to get rid of any extra dirt can help your hair grow long and strong!

Here’s how to use baking soda shampoo to clean your scalp and hair:

*Mix baking soda and water at a 1 to 3 ratio in a small squeeze bottle. The more hair you have, the more you’ll need. For shoulder-length hair, use 1 tablespoon of baking soda and 6 tablespoons of water.

*You can use baking soda on dry hair, or you can use it when your hair is wet. Work the mixture in starting at your roots, and move it through to the end of your hair.

*Let the mix sit for a few minutes, then wash it off using warm water.

*Rinse your hair with a mixture of apple cider vinegar and water. The ratio should be 1 to 4. Add a few drops of essential oil if you’d like.

*To apply the apple cider vinegar mix, tilt your head backward to avoid getting apple cider vinegar in your eyes.
