If you suffer from allergies or sensitivity to certain chemicals, make your own homemade hair products and these problems will likely disappear. There's no need to worry about side effects like irritation, burning, rashes or hives. If you're interested in learning to make safe and effective hair care products, here are two recipes that provide salon quality results with very little time or money.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Brown sugar
  • Conditioner
  • Honey
  1. Step 1

    Go to your kitchen to get some brown sugar. You will use it to make a hair care product to exfoliate your scalp.

  2. Step 2

    Add one teaspoon of brown sugar to three teaspoons of your regular conditioner. This amount of conditioner is usually enough for an average head of hair, but you can easily double the recipe if you need to.

  3. Step 3

    Massage this exfoliating hair care product into your scalp in a circular motion, using your fingertips to loosen and rid your scalp of dandruff. Rinse or shampoo your hair as preferred.

  4. Step 4

    Follow the conditioning exfoliating product with a homemade high shine hair product. Mix one teaspoon of honey into four cups of warm water. Pour it over your hair as a leave-in treatment.

  5. Step 5

    Avoid rinsing out this high shine rinse. Honey-based hair care products are natural humectants attracting moisture, which will give your hair a natural shine and nice smell without a sticky feel.

Tips & Warnings
  • Making your own natural hair care products is actually very easy. You can shop for many of your ingredients in your own kitchen.
