Tips - BY PHYLLIS |

Sage rinse for hair...I have
just read this tip in "Little House in the Ozarks",
by Laura Ingalls Wilder.
Also:
2) The addition of a little
baking soda to some rinse water will lighten the hair and help
to make it fluffy.
3) Buttermilk will whiten the
face and hands. ( Lactic acid)
4) Salt and soda good to scrub
teeth.
5) A bar of castile soap is
good, and no perfume which dries the skin out.
This was written in 1914, so
she was using the best of what she had. She was using rose water
and glycerine was her moisturizer. |

Oily Hair :) -
BY MORGAN |
|
Hey! Your site is truly amazing!
Here's a cool tip for people with oily hair: wash it everyday,
don't use conditioner (even if it says,"for oily hair"),
if you have to use conditioner, apply it only to the ends of
your hair (applying to scalp will cause build up), do not let
it air dry completely: blow dry the ringing wetness then let
it dry b/c if you blow-dry it completely it will be frizzy, and
when you get out of the shower, rub ice all over your hair (this
is how Liv Tyler gets her hair so shiny!). Take my word for it.
It really works! |
Perfect Curls - BY
ANGIE |
O.k. I have thick
hair and when I want to put those overnight curlers in my hair
they never dry... so for perfect curls roll up "just blow
dried" hair instead of wet or damp.
Hey this site is so freakin cool. |
Hair
Breakage - BY SPAYROLLKID |
|
For hair breakage, mix together
in a small jar or container, two tablespoons of hand cream, two
tablespoons of conditioner, and one tablespoon of olive oil.
Rub into spot where breakage has occurred, particularly at night.
Shampoo out in morning or not. In a matter of a week or two,
you will see hair growing back. |
