Boiling stinging nettles and using as a hair tonic is supposed to be good for your scalp.

An underused plant if ever there was one.

Well, it has now been over a month since I first used the bicarb and vinegar in my hair, and have used no shampoo or conditioner and I never use any other hair products. Honestly, I am perfectly happy with it. It's true that the hair needs to adjust and it does take the bigger part of a whole month.
My hair feels very clean and softer than before. True, it is not as full, in appearance, but is also curlier at the ends than before. It feels good to know that I'm not putting any 'bad stuff' in my hair. :-D

That's good Lillia :-D I'm glad it's working for you. I notice on your Flickr pictures that you have beautiful long hair - I'm trying to grow mine again, but it's slow-going, I wish I hadn't cut it in the first place!
