- I have been washing my hair with rye flour and I am so happy with the results that I am sharing the benefits, the method, and any tips in this video.
Use about 2 TBSP of rye flour for short hair, 4 TBSP for shoulder-length hair, and 6 TBSP for long hair. Once you get more comfortable with washing your hair with rye flour, you can tweak and adjust those measurements to your liking.

#ryeflour #hairwashing #naturalhaircare - Jak na to + styl
Yestedray I washed my hair the first time with rye flour. I only washed my scalp, and for my waist long hair I have used 2tbs of rye flour. It cleaned my hair beautifully, and it is super soft and shiny. I have used an acv rinse after. My itchy scalp stopped being itchy straight away. I am so releived I have finally found a super simple, effective, cheap and sustainable way to wash my hair. Thanks for the video.
That is so great! I love that you gave the rye flour method a try!! Thank you so much for sharing and commenting 💛 ~ Anja
Something I would have never thought about! Thank you for sharing.
Love that you use this to exfoliate too!
Great video, thank you. I really loved the music in it too and that it wasn't being played over you talking.
what an interested alternative!
I was riveted. Never heard anything of the sort. What a bold video! Well done.
I love your videos! The info you share is always so easy to follow and I believe it to be true! ❤️
That is so nice to hear! Thank you for watching and for your sweet comment 💛 ~ Anja
Woooow, I find you accidentally and I like it, I stop use it NORMAL shampoo, for 7 years ago and I just use shampoo- bar. But I will definitely try it. THANKS SO MUCH for this video and all the info 🤩
I like this idea! Going to try it. Thank you!!
Yay! Have fun washing you hair and thank you for your nice comment 💛 ~ Anja
Anja, I have never heard of this before! So interesting -thanks for sharing 😃
I appreciate how real you are. Thanks for this info. I'm really enjoying your channel
aww ... thank you!! That's so nice of you to say 💛 ~ Anja
Very helpful video, thank you. I just bought rye flour today and will try this very soon :)
Yay! Have fun and thank you for sharing 💛 ~ Anja
Learn something new every day. TY
I am so glad to hear this 😊 ~ Anja
Lovely video thx for sharing
Hmmm, very interesting. I will have to give it a go!
I've heard it all now!
Is it ok to use dark rye flour? btw I've been looking for a replacement for commercial shampoo (with a long shelf life and simple to make) for a long time! really excited to chance upon your video, thanks so much for sharing!!
You can use dark rye flour, however I recommend a very fine grind, otherwise you'll end up with little bits and pieces of rye bran in your hair (but you can comb it out easily) 💛~ Anja
I've never heard of this but I might try it. I have thick hair also and about your length.
Nice! I hope you like it as much as I do 😊 ~ Anja
I have been using garbanzo bean flour for about 4 mo. or so, but I think I will give this a try. I have oily hair and maybe this will help. I also go about 5 days or so between washes. Thank you!!
Thank you so much for sharing. Garbanzo bean flour sounds great, too!
Wow this was amazing! I just tried it this afternoon after a day tidying up my vegetable garden for winter. It has left my hair really soft and feels great! I also used a rosemary water finish at the end 😊
Nice! I am so glad to hear that! Rosemary water is amazing for hair 😊 ~ Anja
Very nice
Interesting! My mom is a hairdresser and I can only imagine the face she would make if I told her about this. I tried the no-poo method with baking soda a number of years ago and she wasn't impressed (and neither was I, for that matter), but I really hate the ingredients in commercial shampoos and I'm having a hard time finding a natural one that I like. Maybe I'll give this a try!
Yes! I also didn't like the baking soda method but this one, I am sold on. Would love to hear your (and your mom's) experience!
I wash mine with rassoul clay. 😊
I will certainly be trying this out! I was wondering how long you have been using this method? Maybe you had mentioned this before and I missed it 😊
Nice! I have been using this method for years but I am very flexible these days and switch it up with a homemade shampoo, too 😊 ~ Anja
Thanks that was very helpful, I was struggling to find an alternative for shampoo. I would give it a try. Could you please tell me how long have you been going with out shampoo and washing your hair with rye flour?
Thanks for the nice comment! Due to traveling and other circumstances, I can‘t wash my hair with rye exclusively but I have been using this method for months! Give it a try and let me know how you like it 😊
I live in Poland and have been washing my thin blonde hair with rye flour for over two years. I can't say that I use it every time I wash. Sometimes I swap it for organic shampoo or clay, which I also love to wash (or rinse) my hair with.
Nice! That's actually how I do it myself 😊 ~ Anja
When I first saw the title of your video I thought...um, that is very strange...but I have enjoyed your other videos on making sour cream, cream cheese and bread so I watched it mostly out of curiosity. Then, when you showed how your hair looked dry, it did look clean! Hmm! 🤔 So I went ahead and ordered the rye flour and the brush too of course. I shall give it a try. I have health issues and so my hair is very dry, falls out and I have dandruff. The most appealing thing though is if I can go longer between washings. I am currently making lots of changes to save on buying products and with shortages in the supply chain it seems like a good idea. I have bought cloth paper towels, handkerchief for kleenex, cloth wipes and a bidet my husband will need to install to save on toilet paper. I just like the feeling of being more self sufficient. Anyway thank you for the videos. I appreciate them!
Nice! I am so glad you're enjoying my videos! I also love that you're willing to try the rye flour method! Thank you so much for your sweet comment 💛 ~ Anja
Such an awesome tip!
My hair has gone totally silver and I've been using baking soda, a little hydrogen peroxide, with an apple cider vinegar rinse but I love your idea. Some friends and I are always looking for ways to stop using plastic containers.
Thank you!
Nice! I haven't had luck with the baking soda method but continue to love washing my hair with rye flour.
Baking soda is bad for your hair
@@christylam87 that is why I love washing my hair with rye flour 😊💛
That sounds like a recipe for brittle, damaged hair to me. Vinegar can be good for the scalp if dilluted properly but baking soda and hydrogen peroxide will seriously damage your hair. Any store bought shampoo would be better than this diy recipe...
When I first started washing my hair I ground my own rye flour. I didn’t sift it. I loved it! It was foamy. I did end up with brown dandruff 😅. But it didn’t last long. My white rye flour that I bought is not foamy. I noticed you washed your scalp, but didn’t extend the rye to the ends of your hair-is that correct!
Yes, I pretty much focus on applying the rye flour mixture to the roots. The rest of the hair doesn't need that much washing but will get some of the rye flour mixture as I rinse it out. Hope this helps 😊 ~ Anja
I've been using chickpea flour! I'm curious how often do you use the rye flour to wash your hair?
I have been getting away with waiting 5+ days in between washings. Everyone is different but I believe that using rye flour, you can and will "train" your hair and may not need to wash it as often.
Amazing!! I got away from commercial shampoos... started using Castile liquid soap that has no artificial colors..no petroleum derivatives.. or no animal ingredients or harsh detergents..paraben & phthalate free... I would be very interested in trying the flour. My only concern is it seems that you only put it on the scalp... 🥴. what about the actual hair? I love your videos! Thank you!❤️
Yay! I am so glad you like this method. I am not so concerned about the rye only getting to the scalp and roots since 1) that is where the oils are and 2) as you're washing it out, the rye will also go down the hair. That should be enough unless you have a lot of product in your hair. Hope this helps and thank you for your nice comment 💛 ~ Anja
Hi Anja, do you recommend a specific grain mill? I would like to purchase one and wondered if you had a recommendation? Thanks again
Yes, absolutely. You can read more about it here: ourgabledhome.com/the-ultimate-mockmill-grain-mill-review-comparison/😊 ~ Anja
do you normally wet your hair in the shower first before putting the rye flour on or no?
You can do it either way, whatever is easier for you 💛 ~ Anja
Have you used anything to add to the rye flour to give more pampering feel to washing, say like rose water??
You could do that
Great video, really interesting. I want to try this, so can I ask what temperature water do you use on the rye please? Hot? Cold? Room temperature? Thanks in advance, and so sorry if you already mentioned that in the video. 🥴
I am glad you enjoyed this! These days, I put the rye flour in a container and fill it with warm water from the shower once I am in there. I don't like anything cold on my head. Hope this helps 💛 ~ Anja
It helps a great deal! 😉 Thank you. Will be trying it this weekend.
My skin is very dry as I have psoriatic arthritis. Will this provide enough moisture for me.
It might be worth a try. Rye flour has some fat content but most of all, it won't strip your skin/hair of its own oils 😊 ~ Anja
Any advice for men to stop receding hair lose and thinning hair? thanks
Aww ... I wish 😌
Can you apply it to wet hair when i tried rhassoul clay i made a watery mix and wet my hair first then put tue clay mix on
Hi there, while I like to apply my rye flour mixture to my dry hair (it sticks better) I am sure you could apply it to wet hair, too. Just make sure your mixture stays and doesn’t run off immediately. Maybe you need to experiment a bit to see what works best for you. Hope this helps!!😊 ~ Anja
Can we apply this on oiled hair. Have you ever tried soap nut n sikhakari
Do you mean oily hair? If so, yes, rye flour works well for that 😊 ~ Anja
I shampoo my hair app every 6 weeks. But every 3-4 days ,I put baby powder in my palms , flip my head upside down, then quickly apply the powder thru my hair, to my scalp gently rubbing it all over my front scalp. I do it again to the back of my head. I leave it in for a bit, then I get my natural hair brush wet, and give my hair a good brushing. My hair looks fantastic
That sounds great, Susan, and thank you for sharing 😊 ~ Anja
Baby powder had asbestos in it Johnson and Johnson was sued
Yeah and? I'm 63 with bad arthritis , my son's are full grown living their lives. I'd rather feel good about myself for a shorter time then not do to my hair what I discovered and feel uncomfortable
@@susananderson9619 Have you ever tried Arrow root powder, it works juts like baby powder and its much safer, and its meant to put on hair, just a suggestion, no judgment.
Do you still do this? Have you tried anything else since this video? I would like to make a shampoo/ conditioner.
I do! But at this point my hair is happy with anything so I sometimes switch back and forth, depending on the mood of the day 🤣 ~ Anja
How did you find this method of washing your hair and or skin?
I think a friend in Germany mentioned it, so I looked into and tried it out 😊 ~ Anja
I use it now for a couple of months but I think my pipes/tubes from the shower smell bad after a month.. could it be the rye flour?
Hard to tell if the rye flour is making your pipes smell bad but you can always put some baking soda and then white vinegar down to clean them out. Or use some commercial pipe cleaner.
Your links say they don’t know when the flour or berries will be back in stock do you have another brand that you recommend?
The rye berries show in stock but I have just updated the link for the rye flour (amzn.to/3pClEhi). Hope this helps 😊 ~ Anja
@@OurGabledHome thank you so much!
Has anyone ever used this for babies cradle cap?
I haven't but it's definitely worth a try 💛 ~ Anja
I wonder if it will clog the drain?
Good question! We have not had any problems but I only wash my hair every 5 days or so. Hope this helps ~ Anja
Can we mix rye with curd rather than water?
Haven't tried it but why not?
Does it matter if it’s dark rye flour?
No but it should be as finely milled as possible otherwise you'll have rye bran in your hair.
Can I use it for my thinning hair? My hair is falling a lot. I cannot brush it when wet as it pulls too much of it when wet. Any suggestions? Thank you.
It is very gently on your hair and scalp so definitely give this a try ~ Anja
@@OurGabledHome thank you I will!
Does it work for dry hair?
I cannot tell you from my own experience since my hair is on the oily side but from all my research, washing your hair with rye flour should work for dry hair. You can try it out, give it a bit of transition time and see how it works for YOU. You can't really go wrong. If you don't like it, simply switch back to your previous shampoo. Hope this helps!
@@OurGabledHome hey thank you so mucj for your reply, i already ditched shampoo from long time except a natural one but my hair is very so will give it a try very soon x
Does it make your ends dry ?
No, not at all!
@Lucy Rane thank you !
Does it cause any plumbing drain problems ie. clogging drain?
We have never had any problems but I only wash my hair every 4-6 days. Rye is not as gooey as wheat. Hope this helps 😊 ~ Anja
@@OurGabledHome Yes it does! Thank you!
Hi, rye is not free of gluten. Those with Celiac cannot consume rye along with wheat, barley, spelt
Thank you for pointing this out. If you're celiac it's best to avoid gluten. This is external so that might be different.
Her hair looks soo dry??
Rye contains gluten!!
That is correct! However, wheat contains over 2x more than rye which is why rye flour works for washing you hair. If you are sensitive/allergic to gluten, it is best to be careful.
@@OurGabledHome Indeed, I have celiac disease, so this is probably out for me.
@@soozzi I haven't tried it myself but I know people are also using garbanzo bean flour.
@Whisper and Mantra didn’t say anyone was eating it. I was refuting the claim that rye is gluten free, which it isn’t.
Of course, I'm blonde . I don't know what brunettes or gingers do.sorry
