Ingredients:
2 cups distilled water
1 tablespoon calendula (pot marigold)
2 teaspoons rosemary
1 tablespoon nettle
2 teaspoons orange peel
2 teaspoons comfrey
2 tablespoons chamomile
1/2 teaspoon essential oil of lavender
1 teaspoon Jojoba oil (omit if hair is oily)
1/2 cup all-natural, gentle baby shampoo
Bring water to a boil and remove from heat. Add the herbs, cover, and allow to steep for 30 minutes. Strain mixture into a medium-sized bowl, add the oils and stir vigorously. Add the shampoo and gently stir until thoroughly mixed. Pour into a labeled bottle and keep refrigerated to preserve the freshness. You may keep a small bottle in the shower with enough shampoo for about one week, if you wish. Use approximately 1 tablespoon per application. This shampoo will not produce mountains of billowy suds as it does not contain strong foaming agents. It cleans gently with minimal sudsing. Before use, lightly shake shampoo to mix the oil that may separate from the rest of the ingredients.
