Several year ago I read an article on using club soda once a week as a rinse for shinier hair. The carbonation also helps to remove buildup and other impurities.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Shampoo
  • Club soda
  1. Step 1

    You have two alternatives here. You can shampoo first with a mild shampoo and then use club soda, or simply use the club soda as your shampoo. Since the carbonation in the soda works to loosen impurities from your hair, unless your hair is exceptionally dirty, you should be able to skip the shampoo.

  2. Step 2

    To make things easier, pour a couple of cups of the soda (or more depending on the amount of hair you have) into a container such as a large plastic cup or measuring cup.

  3. Step 3

    Holding head over a sink or while in the shower, pour the soda over your hair, drenching well. Thoroughly work through hair including the roots applying more soda if needed.

  4. Step 4

    Rinse hair well with lukewarm water. Repeat if necessary. Finish with a cool water rinse.

Tips & Warnings
  • Using club soda hair rinse also helps remove chlorine after a swim.

on 2/17/2008 This will come in handy, as I could never find something to remove the rust and chlorine. Our water is terrible, so I will try this. Thanks so much!
