- How to make your own natural Rosemary and Lavender herb infused shampoo. Rosemary is excellent at strengthening and promoting hair growth, and Lavender is great for dry hair.
Things to gather:
- 1 cup boiling water
- 2 tbsp. fresh herbs - soak in water couple hours then strain and add to squeeze bottle along with
- ¼ cup natural soap base
- ½ tsp grapeseed oil: amzn.to/2c51cyV
- 20 drops of essential oil
Don’t over shake or it mix will foam up. It might not look like it will foam up but it does similar to commercial brands.
Apple cider vinegar finishing rinse:
1 cup water
2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar mixed together in a spray mister bottle.
Method:
Once hair has been shampooed/rinse, simply spray through hair, then rinse. Dry and off you go!

I've been using your shampoo recipe for over a month now. My hair feels great and my husband loves it too. Thank you so much❤
Do you still use it?
@@sarahbeee5240I use that shampoo for many years, and I will never be back to chemical shampoo, no more loosing hair, no more dry scalp. First month or maybe more my hair was getting used to that shampoo, because all my life I used regular shampoo from the store, and hair needs time to get in new kind of shampoo. I like it, hair is healthy and shine 👍
I have been using a similar recipe for a week now it took me 40 years to realize I need to make my own shampoo. I was losing hair in scary amounts and I could see my scalp my hair was so thin I was convinced nothing could stop the hair loss. However, I gave homemade recipe a try and I am losing much less hair now I would say at least a 50% reduction if not more.
Can you share your recipe please?
Thank you, Astar! Chemical free is the only way to go - appreciate the recipes. Looking forward to the hair serum :) You are the best!!
You have a very beautiful voice. Ive had horrible health issues my hair has started falling out decided its time to clean out the crud! Think Im going to make this asap!
Exactly what I was searching for!! Thank you and hi from Jamaica!
Astar you are a queen 👑! Thank you and I subscribe RIGHT NOW !
Thank you, I enjoyed that and I will be trying it out.
looking forward to trying this recipe! you seem just lovely!
Will be trying this. Thank you.
super efficient video! thanks so much for sharing your lovely presence and knowledge ✨🌷
Omg you're gorgeous, love your vibe 💗💗💗
Your channel is awesome I want to make it soon, thank you for sharing. will this be ok for dry and thick strands hair? Thnks s lot, love you, awesome video thank you so much
i love your recipe. Thanks a lot. rosemary smells beautiful.
Thank you. I like your spirit and this vid
Wonderful! I'm loving this series. I use an all natural shampoo & cond from the supermarket and my hair has never been better. I will definitely be trying this recipe. Thank you 😊
This is the best solution for me and for my son who has G6PD. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, you are such a kind 💙💋
What a great Alchemist 😇 Wow so cool I came across a kiwi while looking for natural recipes to make shampoo & conditioner 😀🇳🇿
Thank you very much for this!! This is EXACTLY what I needed because I wash my hair with shikakai powder. It's amazing but it doesnt smell very nice. The rosemary and lavender "tea" is perfect to add a nice scent to it!! Thank you😊
Lol I was excited to make natural conditioner and it turns out I've been already on the right track. I've been using Apple Cider Vinegar (mixed with water) in my hair for a couple of years now. I've got naturally curly hair and it's the only thing that works for me ^.^
Ditto that
Does this make your hair smell like apple cider vinegar afterwards?
@@KimberlySmith-zk8be no, it doesn’t. It will make the room smell like it when you’re doing it, but my hair has never smelled like acv once it’s washed and dried.
@@YunaPhoenixfuldo you use it all over your head even scalp? Does it soften like conditioner? Is it OK to use raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar with the mother in it? Sorry for all the questions.
You are very elegant and thank you for the vid!
What an awesome lady ❤
Your accent is so awesome.
lovely Kiwi accent, lol , I will def try this soon! Nice video btw
Thank you astar auntie .😊😊
Thank you for sharing ♥️ my mum did the same 🙂
Hi Astar. Love your dress design: :) Wonderful video. How often do you wash your hair with these ingredients to make it look so good?
Thank you
think i might actually try this! although i've read in a lot of places that it's not great to keep things with essential oils in plastic bottles as they degrade the plastic so I'll put mine in glass!
Hello, you are correct. I usually use dark glass for most things, but not in the shower. Regards Astar
Glass is best
@AstarsPlace Can I use Dried Rosemary instead of fresh Rosemary?
Hi Ms. Astar this video is very inspiring me to try it by myself. Can u inform how long this sampo can be use until its expire?
Hi, very nice recipe. Will surely try it. I have Dr Bronners liquid soap ,will that work? Also can I add vegetable glycerin to this same recipe
Thank you for sharing
Loved the idea thanks for sharing ,but consider the base is tea lavender and rose Mary don't you need preserve or the soap base has it . because in 3 days you know
would it be ok to add aloe vera juice or gel to this recipe ?
I have a sensitive scalp. ..is this shampoo good for dry itchy scalp?
can you use dried rose buds rather than herbs ? I use it for homemade tea but will it be the same ?
Hi Astar,
Do you know if this formula works on grey hair?
Hi this lovely video I losing lot hair lately I cant believe i have any left,could quite catch were you buy your organic soap base I from UK thanks.
Hi Astar, I am new to your channel and would like to try to diy the shampoo. Would like to find out the shelf life of the shampoo? Thank you.
Hi thank you so much for the shampoo did I have to put it in the fridge or leave it out and they went on picture
Wonderful Video
U are creative!
Thanks 😊
Hi Astar's. I have to tell you, I am a new comer to your youtube channel. I decided to make your shampoo and you know what ? I am hooked, that shampoo is amazing, absolutely amazing. My scalp and hair have never felt so fresh and clean. Thank you so very very much for sharing this video.
I will definitely keep watching your videos.
Hi Nathalie, thank you so much for your positive feed-back. I too adore it and it makes my hair and scalp feel amazing. My hair has never been better. I suppose I should say that not all shampoo suits everyone especially the manufactured type. At least with the stuff I make I know what's in it. Kind regards Astar
:)
Hello Nathalie, thank you so much. I love this method. Took a while to get used to it but now I will never go back. A bit of Moringa oil and essential oil rubbed through my hair and finally all knots are gone. Yahoo. X Astar
Cool :)
is there any thing I can replace the liquid soap base with?? I cant find it anywhere in my country :,(
What is the self life of this shampoo
What about shelf life of these all?
Would castile soap work as a base??
What are some natural soap bases you recommend in the US
I’ve been using for 3 days, and so far no itching reaction or otherwise! The only thing I noticed is my hair is rather limp which is very noticeable since I don’t have a lot of hair! That’s the reason I went on the search to get away from all the additives. I sure hope I don’t lose anymore hair! What has been your experience since you have been using it? I thank you for sharing your talent with others!
Hi Rochelle, I know exactly what you mean. My hair was like that too. I think it's because there is no additional ANYTHING in it. It's been a hit and miss adventure with many of the recipes I tired, but can confirm my hair likes one. The other thing worth trying is... to only wash your hair once a week and plenty of brushing to stimulate the scalp. Well that's what I now do. I hope this helps. Love Astar
Try black castor oil. It helps with thinking and growing hair. Don't need to use much since it is thick. Make sure to massage the castor oil in and leave on for a bit then rinse with Luke warm water
I actually really enjoyed his video
Can u give tge recipe for the natural soap base ?
I love making my own natural beauty products. Lately I have been making rosemary shampoo bars.
That's sounds amazing. Could I have the recipe? I'd like to try it. Warm regards Astar
@@AstarsPlace I did 10 oz each of olive and coconut oil, then 6.81 oz of grapeseed oil. I then plugged it into a lye calculator. I did a infusion of rosemary with the olive oil.
Can we keep this shampoo in the fridge ? If that so , till when ?
Can’t get the soap
Complete lists of ingredients pls.
🙂Thank you!!!!
I will definitely be trying this out!! Is it okay to add tea tree oil into it? Also, how long does this last? I wash my hair maybe twice a week and would like to make this in bulk. Do you think this could last a month or longer? Or should I be maybe new shampoo/conditioner every week-couple weeks??
Hello Madelyn, I love this recipe and although it took sometime for my hair to like it, perseverance worked. As Rachel Hunter once said 'it doesn't happen over night, but it will' and tbh it does. I'm not sure about adding teatree! And suggest you do a wee trial test first. Because there is no preservative in the mix, I only ever do small batch lots and keep it in the fridge. Fyi this was actually my old Nan's recipe. My thoughts have always been...'good enough for Nan when there was nothing else around, then good enough for me'. Keep me posted. Kind regards Astar
I make my own shampoo too. I love recipes with herb water but for my hair i actually use alot more oil to mine because im half arab and half english so my hair is really thick curly and bristly. I make an herbal oil emulsion vs the herb water. I used to use 80% oil 10% castile soap and 10% glycerin but i tried something new today. my ratio is 70% oil to 10% water 10% borox and 10% glycerin. I just thought i could try it hope it works out. The reason Im saying this is in case someone has hair like mine and they need that extra oil. It rinses out just fine even in that high % of oil. Im going on my 3rd yr with doing my shampoo like this. But I really like your setup and your video :D
NadaZneka Thanks for acknowledging that Afro curls require more oil to moisturize our curly hair. Otherwise great recipes 🙏🏾Thanks Astar
It actually add those fresh herbs did the vinegar conditioner that you just made as well the plot essential oils and to make your hair smell nice and not like vinegar LOL just a suggestion
Thank you for the video. I am recently doing research to make the change of shampoo for s more natural and environmental friendly. (Less plastic bottles)
But I have a question.
Is it safe/okay to add biotin oil or vitamin E oil into the mixture?
Hi there, I'm not sure about the Biotin oil, but sometime I do add Vitamin E, however where or when I need oil I prefer Jojoba oil. Hope this helps Astar
@@AstarsPlace thank you Astar…i was just gonna ask about jojoba oil since i have that in stock
i wanna make my own line
Sorry was fast speak, will be good to read the ingredient on a side of the scream,thank you..Elisa...
Mam plz give receipe in discription box by typing like comment i dont understand what ingridients you were adding.
but when u put ACV after ur essential oil shamppo, ur just gonna smell like ACV
I can't one that define my curls make them frizzy and other just makes my curls fall 😭.
للأسف لاتوجد ترجمة باللغة العربية 💔😪
❤
I became your subscriber just to hear your accent 😍😍😍
This looks great unfortunately if i didn't add something heavy and nourishing after shampooing on my type 3c curly hair I'd have big problems...😅
your hair and scalp were probably going through a detox. It comes back into balance after a few washes with a natural product
How long does it last in the Fridge or how do you know it’s expired
Usually unpreserved water based recipes will last around a week in the fridge 😊
where can i buy that Shampoo base
?? thanks!
I got mine from a company here in NZ called PureNature. Try Amazon for a natural soap base. Kind regards Astar
Can I use coconut oil instead?
Yes you could. I'm going to give it a go as well. X Astar
Do you rinse out the vinegar rinse? Or do you leave it in your hair?
L K Rinse it out.
Hello LK, I do because like others, I don't like the smell. I also use a small amount of Moringa oil with a drop of essential to get rid of the continuous KNOTS. Works a treat. X Astar
What kind of lavender do you use or could I use any?
Hi Shamia,
I used organic lavender oil mostly. Hope this helps Astar
Where did u get the liquid soap base? Could u pls share the link?
I wish she would have listed that too.
Hi there I’m interested in giving this a go! My hair is very long is this good for long hair? As a soap base in the US can I just do castle? As the soap base
Did you try it, im going to try it today
@@sarahbeee5240 I did not try the exact recipe but one very similar and after much trial and error I had to stop using it the PH was wrong for my long blonde hair and it was drying my hair out like crazy. Bummer I had high hopes for it.
@@goingbacktoourroots dang ok, mine is super long. Maybe up the oils in yours? To hydrate. Idk
@@sarahbeee5240 The Young Living, Acure, and Calia shampoos are way more natural and all really good those are the ones I use now
I just tried your shampoo recipe and my hair feels very heavy and oily is this normal the first few times??
Hi Virginia, it was like that on me too for a few times, and then it came right. I have another recipe that I am currently working on, which will be posted once I'm fully satisfied. The thing about 'things' made or DIY is to remember they will never be like those manufactured. My motto has always been to keep things as simple as possible. Love and best wishes Astar
How long can we store?
I think you should separate shampoo w/ conditioner clips .
I am not sure which one is which. So confusing sorry.:(
the one with soap is shampoo (first one with the rosemary and lavender). the bottle with vinegar and water is conditioner also known as the rinse.
What is the liquid soap base
Hello Musio, it's call 'castile' but there are many naturals on the market. Hope this helps, kind regards Astar
Will Castille work ??
hallecats Hello, yes it probably would work.
Astar's Place thanks for the prompt reply. I absolutely love watching your videos. You inspired me to mix up a few Natural Hair Remedies this past weekend.
I have unruly kinky curly hair. I'm hoping that these homemade beauty products will help my hair behave. Thanks! Amy from the USA 🇺🇸
Hello, I don't see why it wouldn't work. I'll do a wee test and see what it's like. Kind regards Astar
Hello, yes I reckon it would. X Astar
Can I put this in 4c hair?
Hi there Shamia, I use it on my hair which has been coloured forever and have had no bother, but I would do a patch test if you are unsure. Kind regards Astar
What is shampoo base
Genau meine Frage.
Sie sagt, das sei keine Chemie.
Sehr komisch. Shampoo Base ist nämlich die wichtigste Zutat, die wäscht und wirkt und reinigt.
Das Rezept ist nicht "100% Natur" !!!
Does this work for people who are prone to dandruff? Asking for a friend.
Hello Jessica, I am not sure. Perhaps someone else might be able to assist. Astar
Astar's Place Hey Astar, I found out peppermint essential oil is good for dandruff so I'm going to try your recipe with peppermint oil drops and I'll let you know if it works!
Hello Jessica, please do. Love for now Astar
Hi, I am not sure, but I will ask a friend to try it out for me. X Astar
I’m wondering if your hair smells like vinegar afterwards with not using anything but that?
Hi Harmony, tbh yes it does, but only briefly and yes it does take a while to adjust too, but for me it's been a positive experience. God only knows what's ahead with our upside down, inside out, muck up world. I'm lucky I suppose that my Nan went through 2 war worlds and gifted me with handy alternatives. Astar
@@AstarsPlace I completely agree and I appreciate your reply & honesty, thank you astar! New sub for ya😻✌️from Alberta Canada
@@AstarsPlace and alternatives is exactly what I’m looking for
tried your shampoo yesterday. ..eeecch my hair is weighed down and feels so greasy. ..I followed your recipe to the T. ...I will add one more cup of seeped herbs to my mixture maybe it will cut down the oil in the shampoo. ..and by the way the mixture does not sud at all. ....dissapointed !
Hello Gazelle, that is exactly what mine felt like when I first started using it, but after a couple more goes it came right. The trails and tribulations involved in as 'natural' as possible is a hard road. I'm sorry this was a time waster for you. Kind regards Astar
Gazelle 251262 suds are a result of sulfates which is associated with carcinogenic substances. Amazing what chemicals we put into our bodies unknowingly. Harmful though they be... I’m a cancer survivor so I’ll forgo suds for health.
how long can I use this until it expires?
Melly I’m interested in this as wel
Usually unpreserved water based recipes will last around a week in the fridge 😊
Measuring ingredients in oz or grams is accurate. Cups and spoons can give inaccurate results.
Should we store this product in refrigerator
As a rule I keep all my lotions and potions in the fridge and tun them over quickly due to them not having any preservatives etc. Kind regards Astar
How long can we store in fridge
@@nyjuju2554 hello. These days I store in the fridge about 2 weeks.
where did you get your soap base from?
Nicole Martinez I get mine from a company here in nz called nzpurenature. If you can get Castile soap use that. XAstar
Easy busy lemon squuzy...
The most simple metod to wash heir is..grey soap..wash heir and after that wash by water and twice with vinegar with water proportion 1/3
Done guy...
mam,kindly show indigenous & majerments, n process,u given good demo but we feel language problem, understand our problem.please,
What color is that the hair is NOT CHEMISTRY?
I do not dye my hair so thank you for your recipes.
Wonderful video, but it seemed to me as if you were rushing to make everything!
Really? I thought the fast pace was great , maybe I’m in a rush lol
The rush I thought was both amusing and refreshing. I always seem to be skipping though tons of the video because people just don't get to the point. Loved the video!
Can I use this for colored hair?
Probably. It's usually the harsh chemicals in shampoos that strip your hair to begin with. I can't imagine that herbs are going to do that ^.^
"Careful" with some herbs though, I remember sage can darken hair a little so if you have light colored hair it might alter the color. But you should be fine with rosemary ! 😊
Interesting . Only plastic bottles should not be used
I feel exactly the same way, but figure this is far safer in the shower than glass. 99% of all plastic has finally gone from this house and it's a giant step forward. Astar
Did anyone notice that she literally JUST said "Once you start using this, you'll never go back to using commercial shampoos." THEN she said, "I made the decision that that's it, I'm going BACK to making my own." ROFL. Also, I am confused - she labeled the second one "Hair Rinse" ...so, is it not conditioner? All the conditioners I've ever used have been oily.
The apple cider is a rinse, that's what I've been doing for over a year now. It's made my hair strong, shinny and weirdly doesn't tangle now. I don't use conditioner
@@sarahbeee5240 Do you use this shampoo also?
@@zeehuss7275 I just bought an apple cider vinegar shampoo so yes. But I still rinse with straight acv too
👍🙏
Translation arabic😁🙏

no rice in this recipe so no thx you.
Shelf life?
hello Mikhael, mine doesn't last very long at all. Cheers Astar
