Hey, just a suggestion we use soapnuts since our childhood in India and also in the united states.Initially we don’t wet our hair we use soapnut water directly for the first and rub it in taking partitions all over the head then rinse off and repeat till we get froth.The thing is soapnuts don’t produce froth untill the dirt is gone.For conditioning add Fenugreek seeds in the water not too much about 1tsp.Try to soak them in hot water before bathing and let it cool down and when it is warm then use it.Still we need to see what works for us :)
This is true! From my own experience, putting it in my wet hair or in my dry hair made a ton of difference and also I let it sit in the first round for 10-15 min.
Where can you find Fenugreek seeds, and can you use both the Fenugreek and flax seeds?
Do you add the fenugreek seeds when your washing your roots or do you wash with just soapnuts first and then use the seeds to just condition the ends of the hair.
@@brittanyarcher8602 soak fenugreek with soap nuts ,amla n shikakai overnight n cook it for sm time ..in the morning mash everything tog...u can grind it also ..strain n use this mixture on hair
@@brittanyarcher8602 hello Brirrany, @Blessed has given a great suggestion as how i would do if i add in more ingredients. Just don’t put too much of fenugreek seeds as they wont make the liquid get froth .
Traditionally, we soak the nuts overnight first. Brings out the best in them when you boil them the next day.
I started using soapnuts in 2015 in our laundry because my son had really bad eczema. After 3 months, his skin cleared up, the detergent just needed time to leave our clothes. I used every kind of natural detergent and all of them irritated him. I soak them for 5 -10 minutes and drop them in. Love these things, going to try the hair, thanks.
Never use a glass jar in the shower or bath. I have a 6” scar on my leg from when I was 14 and glass slipped through my hands. Maybe use a plastic one with a squeeze tube. Also maybe just use a conditioner on the ends for less fly always?
Yes, when glass breaks it can be quite dangerous. However, glass is basically the best thing out there for clean storage. The way to safely use glass in the shower is to use one of those silicone wrap things like they put on water bottles, or use a bamboo bottle carrying/holder thing, or keep your bottles set on a shower bench and just pump as needed. Alternatively, do that more minimalist clean look, when I’m wet I pick up my glass bottles with a wash cloth. Helps with adding some traction.
Oh
I was thinking a squirt bottle like that is used for ketchup or mustard would be a good way to apply it.
Great advice !
That’s the risk of life that can happen using any glass anytime. Plastic is wasteful.
Am so grateful to my mom. Ever since my childhood she washed my hair with soap nuts (coz every indian uses ). My hair used to be longer and thicker compared to my whole class. But at that time i didn't cared much coz am just a kid. From past like 10yrs i have been using shampoos and my hair is in very bad condition, it's so thin and lots of hair loss and all. Now am going back soap nuts again.
Hi! I don’t really like herbal scent of amla reetha and shikakai shampoo I liks floral scents so can I boil fresh or dried rose petals with the mixture??
@@rafiaasif6099 I have no idea...but may be u can.
Can we find and plant soap nuts here in the Philippines? I want and wish to try soap nuts for my hair. Thank you.
@mariavictoriasalita5273 Yes , you can try planting it and use it. I wish you luck in that.
@@ambatinandini7585 thank you very much.
When you add the essential oil, while your liquid is boiling/very hot, it evaporates most of the scent. Wait until it has cooled down.
Yes it evaporates the scent and probably a tremendous amount of the nutrients and healing properties as well. Should be added in at the lowest possible temperature while still being able to make the product. Excellent post and reminder!
the essential oils i have used were lemongrass, lemon, and rosemary.
@@zippers2I love lemongrass with ginger and lemon. It smells so heavenly and divine and super clean.
i would go with Rosemary essential oil, as i think Eucalyptus is awfully strong...Rosemany will work better for hair, as that's what it's known for.
I came to say the same thing. It's my second time watching..as I've now got all the ingredients and cooking while watching. I do know this about essential oils...not to add until off of the heat.
yes Soap nuts can be used as natural shampoo... ( actually they will lather just like a shampoo if you 1st soak them overnight and then boil them and scrunch it) and yes flaxseeds can be used as natural conditioner too.. ( that white substance in this video is coming from flaxseeds) it can really help in hair growth too and also can be used as hair gel .. Actually I really loved this video 😍❤️🌹 lovely. 🌷
What does "scrunch it" mean?
@@Munchy_plaz I mean, kind of squish it. Just squish it using hands.
@@heaven9447 India has contributed so much knowledge to the world. India is the GOAT for sure
In my experience they froth when you scrunch them, but when you apply in your hair it doesn’t. It feels more like a water, but still washes well.
@@user-sq3hs5su6l yes.. For lathering we need to apply a few more times..
My grandmother grew up using soap nuts to wash her hair in India as did her mother. It has been used for centuries throughout the subcontinent! It works!
Hi! I don’t really like herbal soap of amla reetha and shikakai shampoo so can I also boil fresh rose/dried rose petals in this mixture ??
Pleaze this plante remove white hair🙏?
Are soap nuts also seen here in the Philippines or can they be cultivated here in the Philippines? I have heard many wonderful things about it for a couple of days already and I want to try this miracle plant. Thank you.
@@mimi-pd4wf no, sorry, it only cleans.....
I haven't used shampoo over a year now. You were and are still my inspiration, thank you for sharing your experiences!
Hey, If you smash these nuts and put it in warm water then it will be similar to a shampoo (gives lot of foam). The seed (inside part) also acts as a soap. You just need to put them in hot water and just before bath warm it up again (if it is cold). That is how my mother taught me to use and it works flawlessly.
Thanks for sharing... So we don't have to boil them? Sometimes I don't have a place to get hot water. Will putting them in cold water work just as well as warm water? For how long? Thank you!
@@sweetbeep nope putting them in cold water won't do anything. You need to take hot water and put the smashed nuts in it. Wait for 15 to 20 mins to do it's magic and then if it cools down warm it before bath
@@Watcher46 ok can I get some hot water from somewhere or does everything need to be on the stove for the whole 20 minutes? What reason do I need to warm it up before the bath?
@@sweetbeep The hot water need not be on the stove. If you have observed with hot water any shampoo foams up fast, for this reason you need to warm it up. One more thing I forgot to mention, we need to squeeze the nuts either with hand or a tool to get the entire contents of the soap nuts.
@@Watcher46 ..ok thanks so much. So without warm or hot water, this is not an option for me?
I used soap nuts since my childhood when I am in India. I came to Sweden just 3 years ago and started using shampoo and I started losing hair then I realised shampoo companies are fake only for money. Just a suggestion before washing your hair apply egg+flour and wash with soapnuts. Egg increases hair stamina, flour removes dandruff.
Which flour
😮 incredible! It's very new for me.
I've been no poo for many years. And I've found certain water-based products I like to use. I consider a vinegar rinse a must (distilled water with distilled white vinegar brought to a pH of about 4) I'll use it about once a month. This is the most minimalist method. If I use nothing else, I use at least this. The distilled water removes the impurities from my tap water, and so prevents that hard waxy feeling. And the vinegar restores the acid mantle on my hair, and so leaves my sebum thin, smooth, and soft. It's great. But it's very strong on the scalp, so once a month is enough. The rest of the time, I like to clarify after the shower with only distilled water.
But I also like herbal rinses and more recently rice water. They also have a good pH and removes impurities form my tap, so I don't use the vinegar rinse if I'm using stuff like this. There are so many options tbh.
I’ve been using soap nuts with shikakai and fenugreek for a long time, but I can’t say my hair has become thicker or I started growing new hairs. It’s shines but that’s about all. I think the condition of our hair comes from within.
Try Fermented Rice Water, only once a week if that doesnt work then try Rosemary oil inversion scalp massaging method if that doesn't work replace rosemary with Castor oil
Can I store it without fridge
@@tsarmy9689 I never tried
So excited to try this! I have watched a few of your no-poo videos and love them! I tried no-poo a few years ago and gave up on it because I couldn't find the right way that I could do it without my hair getting super oily. Thanks for sharing your journey because I'm inspired to try again!
you can try it with oi but for that you have to apply it dry and let them dry for 30 minutes then you can wash it off.thus the oil will be felt like diminished
I love this video! I have tested making a bigger batch and then freezing in ice cube trays. I then defrost a couple cubes before it’s needed and it works amazing! Thank you for this video!
I was wondering if the leftover could be frozen. Thanks for the idea of using ice cube trays!
Thx u so so so much. I only shampoo once or twice a week and was thinking what to do abt the access shampoo
Helloooo, I have started my no poo journey and I am defo going to follow this method. I really love how open, unedited and honest you are. Thank you so much for the upload and will be going on a Maryellen binge xx
From the UK x
Raw and real!!! Thanks for the idea and the honesty! Definitely going to try this!
Couldn’t find this anywhere, so voila. 👍🏼
Soap Nuts Shampoo
Lasts for up to 2 Weeks.
Ingredients
- 15 Soap Nut Berries
- 4 cups water
- 2-3 tablespoons of Brown Flax Seeds
- 4-5 Eucalyptus Oil (or any oil of choice)
Recipe
1. Add Soap Nut Berries into small sauce pan.
2. Add water into sauce pan.
3. Turn heat to high.
4. Add Brown Flax Seeds.
5. Add Eucalyptus Oil into sauce pan.
6. Stir occasionally as Flax Seeds can stick to pan.
7. Wait for it to boil.
8. Once boiling, turn heat down to simmer for 20 minutes.
9. Mash berries to thicken mixture midway through simmer.
10. Using strainer and funnel, add mixture to a jar getting as much liquid as possible.
In Shower
1. Use 3-4 handfuls of shampoo and apply to hair.
2. Repeat step 1 again.
You should add Kukui Nut oil to this recipe. It’s a long-known, tried and true Hawaiian hair secret and it’s perfect to prevent frizz and coats the hair shaft leaving a protected coat around it. 🥰
Hahaha I totally know what you mean. I am Spanish and have made many "tortillas de patatas" (Spanish potato omelette). To cook the top side, you have to put a plate on top of the pan and flip the pan and plate simultaneously so that the tortilla ends upside down on the plate, then you scoop it back into the pan to cook the other side. I have done this so many times without failing. The minute I tried to show my (Scottish) boyfriend how to do it ... well... you guessed it.... our whole kitchen counter and floor ended up covered with half-cooked egg and potato. Needless to say, the dog was very happy!
Thanks for sharing Maryellen, At the end of the video I loved the way you said God loves you infinitely!! Praise God !
I'm in love with soap nuts! And even on my light, Scandinavian hair it works wonders!
Great video! Thank you! I've been no-poo for several years now, but lately my routine hasn't been working as well. I'm excited to try this!
Her expression is very welcoming! I have been making all kinds of shampoo, soaps, and so unhappy I am ready to try this!!
Do as the Indian ladies do: Add in Shikakai and Amla (gooseberry) to your flax seeds and Reetha (the soap pods) and soak overnight, then boil and continue the rest as you did. Meant to be amazing for conditioning and strengthening hair. Apparently dried powder of this mixture is available, to which one then adds water and boils it. 👍
You can add glycerine to dried soap nuts dried Amal and dried shikakai it will make it thick like shampoo give it volume.
Can you use powder Amla , shikakai, neem and flax seeds and boil them al together?
@@luckylucy2950can neem be found and be cultivated here in the Philippines? Are they also related to guavas? Thank you.
I wish those plants you've mentioned can be seen and be cultivated here in the Philippines. I want and wish to try them on my hair.
Rosemary makes a good conditioning 😊
I look at shampoo as I do a cup of tea. Today is shampoo day. I’m gonna brew a cup of soap nuts shampoo and a cup of flax seed conditioner. Then a cup of tulsi rose herb tea to drink.
Thank you for the tutorial,
I have slightly changed your recipe.
I have used the same amount but rain water and added freash leaves of lavender and rosemary.
Wow, that was amazing.
The reason I used rainwater because its soft water compared with tap water. It leaves your hair more silky.
Be careful with rainwater it contains a lot of PFAS and contaminants.
Great video. Will definitely be trying it however adding essential oil or any fragrance oil at a high heat makes the scent evaporate and also degrades the oil. It's better to add it when cooled
I just watched your video a few days ago. I had never heard of soap nuts. I made this recipe (without the flax) used Clary Sage essential oil & tried this out this morning. I'm amazed!! No greas, hair is soft, bouncy & beautiful! Non toxic, inexpensive...I'm excited about this! I don't see I'll ever need to use regular shampoo & conditioner again. Thanks for sharing.
Could you make a video about other environmentally-friendly swaps you have made in your beauty routine? Or even just general habits you have built up over time to decrease your carbon footprint 🤔☺️ awesome video btw
Thanks so very much, can’t wait to try this. I was using new wash which is great but expensive, the ran out and went back to regular shampoo and conditioner - I must have reacted to it because my hair started to fall out and my scalp is super itchy. Now back to no pop! But excited to try this method because I’ve tried Apple cider method before and it smells. So thanks!!!
Extremely beautiful hair and helpful information
Great video for a beginner like me. Informative and very thorough. Earned a new subscriber ☺️. Love from PH.
hey, thank you for sharing this. I made this recipe for my hair wash. it turns out so amazing!!!! oh by the way, I have found that soapwort plant actually works as same as the soapnuts. literally, some people would plant them in their backyard.
since they are all liquid, I put this soapnut shampoo in Root Comb Applicator Bottle, which delivers all the liquid into scalp. amazing!!!!
Hi Maryelle. Amazing 😍. I try it today and I 'm totally happy with my hair. Doing no poo now for just a month, absolut beginner. It' s going wel. But soap nuts and vlax simpley great👍and the best I already had this stuff at home. Thanks so much 🤗 and greatings from Amsterdam. 🙏❤️🙏
Thank you this helped a lot!! Can't wait to try it out
Love your paintings on that wall
Thank you for sharing this with us!
Thank you for sharing this! Awesome!
Do you have a link for where you got the soapberries?
In Indonesia, we use soap nuts for wash batik & silver. We soak them overnight first and after that, we boil them about 1 hour.
I excel at messing up whenever anyone is watching🤦♀️🤷♀️😂 I appreciate your channel!
This is so therapeutic to watch :D
That was just amazing! Ive watched your videoes before and ive tried a lot ,and some of them worked for me.I havent used shampoo for almost 6 months now and my hair looks better than ever, no kidding.
Im definitely going to try this method to!thank you for all the information you give, I just love your chanel!
Hi. I saw a video in which the soapnut water was blended with a immersion blender, which became a nice thick foam, in order to facilitate washing your hair. Thanks for your video.
Just shaking the bottle vigorously before use works too.
I loved your content! Tried this recipe. I think for some hair & skin types it would be better as a "conditioner" vs shampoo. It left my combination hair feeling heavy & I lost a lot of hair trying to scrub it clean. 🙃
It makes a lovely shine & styling gel rolled into one.
Wow did it even clean your hair?
I made it today for the first time! I love it! It's cold and dry here, so it's still kind of frizzy...Any ideas? thank you so much for sharing this!!!
I just tried it last night. This morning, my hair had more volume than usual! I'm so excited! My hair is fine & thinning, so I added an essential oil blend for hair growth. Hopefully this will help! So far my hair feels cleaner than my other no poo routine.
Try looking into castor oil for thickening hair
Great videos! Have you considered Ghassoul clay? It's a really good cleanser and gentle on the scalp.
Great video. I used Hibiscus water in place of plain water. I'm going to try Rosemary water next time
Girl you are so funny! 😂 I love this video, I'm trying this, thank you so much! 🙏🤗💕
@@MaryellenHacko hahah 😄 You're so welcome! I hope so too 😊
Hi, thank you for the fun video, I soak the shikaki overnight…. with some Amla each one cup….. in the morning, I drain them and add fenugreek seed…. Leave them for another two hour. Strain them again…… then little bit in the fridge for a week. Rest of it I freeze them.
Cool! Do you think we could put ACV in there? Also, how frequently do you wash? Weekly? Monthly?
I might give this a try!
Even to this day is this THE method you use?
How often do you use this cleanse?
Looks great! How long can you keep it in the fridge? And how often did you have to wash your hair? Super cool to have your experience on all these methods. Thanks!
Can you can it in a jar for long term
One Suggestion Please add “Essential Oil” after cooking soapnut and flaxseeds. Essential oil should be added when your liquid is cold otherwise it will loose most of its good properties. We use this from our Childhood in Pakistan 🇵🇰 for hair care..
So you prefer this over the baking soda acv method? Do you recommend this if dandruff is an issue?
How did you style your hair in this video? Your messy bun do? Could you do easy hairstyle tutorials?
❤ Tks !! I have some I will try it !!
The snot gel is from the flax seed simmering. I have waist length curly hair and at the end of my shower i have a thin water flax and pour it over and leave it in.
We literally just bought the same brand of soapberries at a market up in Cairns. Mainly for the purpose as a laundry detergent but just found this video and my partner wants to try this no-poo method out when we get home to Brisbane 😅
As someone with unruly, curly hair these soap nuts are incredible! I use a bowl with soap nut water diluted/ topped up with warm water. I dip my head in, massage the scalp with a scalp brush and leave for 5 minutes and then pour the remaining liquid over my head, squish it in then rinse. If you want a natural conditioner marshmallow root works very well, it can be boiled up and used as either a rinse, leave in or as a deep conditioner mask.
I use Agar Agar to thicken liquid soap!
add chia seeds to really give it some thickening.
You can try using an applicator bottle to get thorough coverage on your scalp.
Wow! Never knew this. We have lots of Soapnut trees! May Jesus continue to bless you and your family
If you make more videos on chemical free/eco-friendly products, could you explain some of your research of how it helps the earth and others around you? Thanks for another great video! 😊
awesome.
have you tried beehive ginger?
I am going to try this on my hair ....I'm so tired of having irritations/breakouts on my scalp from shampoos/conditioners I have used. Hopefully this will work for my hair.
Is it helped
hey, do you leave the rest in the fridge or can it stay out for the 2-3 weeks?
Amen sister!
I'm going to try your method and let you know how it out thank you
Loved this video, will definitely try it! You should try the curly girl method with aloe vera gel or flaxseed gel, I think it would define your beautiful wavy hair even more :)
Could you link to a video about this? I have super long, thick, curly hair and I'm trying to find something natural that works. I have tried the conditioner method over and over again and it just gets horrible, like chewing gum. I really don't like when my hair gets fluffy either, I want it to be clean but with definition! I haven't found any chemical free method that works. I might try these soapnuts but as I said, I don't really want my hair to become fluffy! I have zero problems with fatty scalp, I can go for weeks without washing and it NEVER gets oily! The scalp gets waxy though if I would go that long without washing, but never oily. My hair strands seem to always have the scales on them standing out, if you understand what I mean? I have never been able to run my fingers through my hair, not even when I used to use products with silicones!! But now it's just horrible! I have been without silicones for about 1 1/2 years and trying to find something that works but with no luck. I have to cut everything off soon if I don't find anything that works. The problem is also that in order to be able to even comb it through I have had to use MCT-oil. Then iI t feels so much better..but then it's way more difficult to clean plus I think that even if the oil makes it feel better for the moment, I have a sneaking suspicion that it makes it worse over time. My hair just gets more and more like chewing gum. Help!🤪🤣
@@cammieklund try egg /banana/fenugreekmasks ..check out green beauty's channel
@@blessed9491 Thanks, but I have a really bad history with banana in my hair. It almost destroyed it.🤪

Hi, I've been using soapnuts for hair for years. I'm not Indian but I tried and I liked it. I freeze the soapnuts liquid in an ice cube tray, and I use a special bottle to apply it. I also don't wet my hair before applying. Lately I've been washing my face with soapnuts too, they are very mild but get the job done. The only issue is not being able to use any styling products because of buildup. Anyone uses a heat protectant that is soapnuts friendly? Or a straightening conditioner?
I don’t think styling products could be used with soapnuts, they were used in times when there were no extra hair products, not even conditioners-
I prefer not using heat on my hair , but soap nut hair are quite strong enough and have a film over the cuticle .
Oiling is the way we Indians have ingrained- so it’s the best way of conditioning our hair. Personally I don’t like oil on scalp, so i take 1-2 drops of light oil(coconut, almond,jojoba, sesame ) and run my hand through fine straight hair ends - works exactly like conditioner . Try heatless ways of hairstyling if possible, to keep hair healthy.
you don't need to dry the used berries, just put them in a jar in the freezer...right along
with the flax seeds. you may want to add another T. of flax seeds for your next batch,
just to make sure you will be getting a good gel with your second batch of shampoo.
Your hair looks gorgeous - i switched to all natural handmade soap 🧼, and hand made shampoo and conditionor. I looked up DIY hair things to help hair growth and i saw a no poo vid on apple cidar vinegar and aloe vera (you can was hair with ur normal poo n conditioner then use as a rinse afterwards) but it said you can use in replacement of shampoo and vinegar. I was going to try this recipe myself - but i saw a bottle of same thing where i buy my beer body soap/other moisturizing soaps 🧼 So i bought 1 and used it as soon as it came. I used it as my hair wash..AND OMG..my hair never felt "cleaner at roots and so very soft. But i wrote down ur recipe and i wanna try that too..as each apple cidar vinegar with aloe..8 oz is $33.00 - i feel that will end up being quite expensive..So im going to give this soapnuts recipe a shot - worried they dont carry soapnuts in my area. But im def gonna look.
Your video was perfect..from beginning to end. You explained everything perfectly and had fun too. THANK YOU
I WILL BE TRYING TO MAKE THIS. 😊😊😊 ~Colleen
In india we use soap nuts as a shampoo with other herbs like shikekai, jatamasi, nagarmotha only reetha can make your hair dry.. U should use natural conditioners with reetha..
Hi. Does the soap nuts solution have to be kept in the fridge? Thanks!
Can you blend the soap nut and flax after boiling just to have more nutrients for the hair? Is the nuts soft enough to blend.
Very detailed explanation! Thank you! Did you ever try liquid soapnut extract instead? I think it could ease the steps.
I would condition with fenugreek cream afterwards. Just soak overnight and then blend and strain.
Hey Maryellen! Thank you for sharing this experience. Are you using de-seeded or seeded berries? Because all I can find is de-seed. I tried this recipe but is very strong with the de-seeded berries. That would be great if you can give me info on what exact brand you are using. Thank you so much ❤️
One need to deseed the berries for use..as it helps the dry berries to soak better.
Going to try this
There's actually a Dutch children's song about how you can do crazy things when nobody's watching, but as soon as they do, you can't do it anymore. It's called "als niemand kijkt" by kinderen voor kinderen.
any hints on where to buy these soap nuts? i tried to search em up on some sites but it wouldn't be that cheaper than buying common shampoo as you said (actually it would be pretty expensive in compare), so I'm wondering if i looked up the wrong sites
Have you tried mixing camellia seed powder with water as shampoo?
You’re so adorable; Recipe with Theatre ☺️ And I loved it. Thank you for the recipe. I’ll try it
❤️ kept me watching ❤️
Hey what's that shirt in the first part of the video called? I want one like that so bad.
You should mixed it in a shaker to give it more foam.
I love your videos! How often should we use this method?
Just came across your video looking up soap nuts. Are you still using this method for washing your hair without poo?
DOES THIS RECIPE HELP WITH HAIR GROWTH? THANK YOU 😊
Have you tried soap nuts with vinegar?
I wonder if you tried just a teaspoon of linseed oil (which is flax oil), cos it must be the oil that nourishing your hair.
Were did you buy the soap nuts from I didn't see it on you subscription
Do you workout while not washing your hair? I've been trying to grow my hair longer and do no 'poo but can only manage a week, because I run every day. When my hair is sweaty, I just let it dry out. But I find if I leave it longer than a week to wash, the ends of my hair actually feel worse? Like more prone to breakage?
Where did u source soap nut. How much u brought for
are you still using this method? and how is it going?
Hey girl thank you for your videos! I have washed my hair with only water since a few weeks now and 2 times with rye flour and I followed your recipe. I few minutes ago I "cooked" my recently arrived soap nuts and I realized nearly every single one opened up 😭 is it normal or did you see something similar while doing your shampoo?
@@MaryellenHacko thanks for responding! I freaking love the berries!! I'm 25 and have never been able to solve the problem of getting greasy hair in 0.2 seconds 😂 since mid July I'm only washing my hair with water and I have ONLY washed my hair 4 times with rye flour and them nuts 😍🌈 it's awesome!! Tomorrow it's one week since I've washed them the last time with more then water... Never expected to find something that really works, after years of trying stuff ❤️ thank you so much xx
Its good that they opened up 😀as u have to use only the outer covering n throw away the seed
where did you buy the soap nuts?
This video is so old, but I'm new to soap nuts and trying to learn all I can do with them. I think I'll try simmering for a while to get it more concentrated, then adding a little to some hot water at shower time because I don't like pouring cold cold water on my head 😅
