No Shampoo?!? Are you crazy?

O.K. so this may seem like a nutty idea so I tried it out before sending out this challenge! Can you go one whole month without shampoo? (no conditioner either!!) It's not as crazy as it may seem and it's much easier than you think. (After doing some research on shampoo ingredients, I may never go back!!)
Simply put, shampoo "cleans" your hair by stripping away the natural oils so that you may replace them with conditioners. Shampoos are full of toxins which you rub into your scalp then rinse and repeat.
How do you go shampoo free?? Wash your hair with a tablespoon of baking soda in a cup of warm water. Rinse with a solution of two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and water. Yes, it does taste a little funny but have you read the ingredients on your shampoo bottle lately?
For more detailed info on this challenge check out the sites to the right, 'poo free is more popular than you think.
Dandruff a problem? This may be your natural solution!
The fact that formaldehyde releasing preservatives are in your kid's soap may get you to switch from tear free shampoo to baking soda forever!! (BTW, it's called quaternium-15)
If anyone takes on this challenge, PLEASE send me a comment, even if you just try it for a day!
