How to Make Homemade Malibu Treatments for Hair
Malibu hair treatments are used to counteract the effects of rust/hard water on the hair. They contain anti-oxidants that prevent the build-up of iron, calcium, magnesium and copper. There is a do-it-yourself treatment for your hair that you can make to accomplish the same thing. Does this Spark an idea?

I have long hair so I mix up (10 to 12 oz) and use enough to cover all of my hair ( you can put the rest in the fridge for next time if you don't use it all) and another tip is to get lemon conditioner to mix in with it. Hope this helps you

Be careful if you have highlighted hair...I'm a brunette with lighter highlights. I left it in for barely 10min and my blonder streaks definitely lightened up significantly. I put a plastic bag over my head and used a hairdryer on hot and low.
