I have a peppermint tree at home so I add the leaves to the mixture and sometimes a bit of tea tree oil. And that works for me.

It's a website run by an environmental agency that tests beauty products and rates them according to how hazardous the ingredients are. It can be a bit scary but I still find it useful.Ericanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1367699339024541410.post-33251700921663201022011-02-07T09:19:09.572-04:002011-02-07T09:19:09.572-04:00I've thrown away my share of products after fi...I've thrown away my share of products after finding that despite the pretty packaging the product was filled with things that aren't good for my hair or my body in general. Thankfully, our local health food stores carry a range of skincare and haircare brands that don't contain all the junk. They even carry some of the brands that are popular in the North American natural hair community, like Giovanni and Aubrey Organics. I guess the most important thing is to have the information about what our hair does and does not need. So thanks for sharing!

I feel that the people in the shops sometimes wonder what it is I am doing, picking up jar after jar of grease/conditioner/gel and looking at them for so long.T.noreply@blogger.com
