It takes a couple of weeks for your hair to settle into a groove. I really like the texture now, but it did take a while to get used to it. It is definitely different -- I kept asking my husband and girlfriends if my hair smelled funny -- it never did. :) Hi Deanna, you should definitely give it a try.

I'm using my conditioner for "shaving cream" when I shave my legs. I have a lot of extraneous products sitting on my counter still. I’m using my conditioner for “shaving cream” when I shave my legs.

Carol, you should definitely try the OCM--it feels so nice at the end of the day! I like the lemongrass, too and honeysuckle smells nice and flowery.

At first I used a little bit of conditioner, because my hair was so dry. Now, in the last week, I’ve stopped using the vinegar, because my hair is now producing enough oils. And because baking soda is very gentle and there are no detergents in it, I would think your hair color would hold better. My highlights don’t mind the change. I’m sure my hair dresser may disagree, though. Hi Felecia, It took my hair 2-3 weeks to adjust. At first I used a little bit of conditioner, because my hair was so dry.

I know that sometimes our scalp will over-produce oils until everything gets adjusted...also, I color my hair as well as highlight...do you know if this will help my color hold?

I've been making baby steps towards greener living lately as well. I've been using Tom's for awhile now and really like it--apricot for me! I'd never heard of the natural shampoo alternative though. Very cool. Something I will think about. Thanks for sharing. :) Hello there! I’ve been making baby steps towards greener living lately as well.

Your hair looks great though! And I like your mirror photo. I'm a classmate from Blogging for Scrapbookers.
