Thank you
This sounds very much like the one i use and it works great but I find the kids go through it like water as it is thinner than the store shampoo. I want to thicken it a bit to more of a cream that will still wash out of the hair easily. Sounds like i am asking a lot here but with kids i hate to waste and there are alot of them (I have 8 at home right now)
thanks

There were several others, also recipes for Herbal Dry Shampoo, Conditioners and Rinses, even a Citrus Hair Spray. These recipes are from Janice Cox, author of Natural Beauty at Home. Her website is JaniceCox.com. She is from Oregon. Angelia, do you know her? She has other books, also.
