No-Poo Tips

1. Inform people (i.e. significant other) who share your shower of your hair experiment, convince them that you are not doing a Drain Volcano, but they are welcome to.
2. Shave FRIST! Yes it is worse than ocean water.
3. Avoid your eyes, if by some chance you do get your eyes don't scream. That significant other will think you have lost your mind.
4. Use two sport bottles. One bottle of half vinegar half water. The other bottle 1/3 baking soda 2/3 water, you will have to shake this bottle up each time and you might have a small explosion. This method has saved me the time in prep area of each shower and also the spreading of the baking soda.
4 a. Inform your significant other of your sport bottles in the shower, i.e. "What's up with your water there?". They will need to know that you are not being thirsty in the shower and then being too lazy to take them out and then letting one gather a large amount of white crap at the bottom of it.
5. Remember when you go somewhere and you sweat a lot (i.e. spin class) that you will smell like easter eggs. Basically anytime after getting your hair wet you smell like easter eggs to some degree. Think about this hard before making plans. Do you want to go on a date to Sea World sit in the front row and get hosed by Shamu, then spend the rest of your day trying to convince your date your not some weird hippy chick that doesn't believe in shampoo.
6. Don't tell the rest of your family/friends until your hair has evened out. This allows for them to be shocked at your hair awesomeness and think you are a little crazy. Instead of them thinking icky hair and you are crazy because it doesn't work.
7. Get the baking soda everywhere! The only time I was oily was when I missed parts of my hair with the baking soda. Once I switched to the water bottle I didn't have the issue anymore.
