Natural Shampoo and Conditioner

Post by Shepherd103 »

Hello Everyone,

I have a winning shampoo and conditioner! I get fantastic results with it on my collies.

I use to have a sable rough collie called Cookie, her coat was neglected and was matted, coarse and stinky.
For a while I tried exspensive shampoos, but they never worked. My mum had been using baking soda and vinegar for her hair of late, and it was looking very soft and healthy.
So I decided to try it. The instructions are below:

Shampoo
1 cup of baking soda in a large cup.

Fill the cup to the brim with warm water.
Mix well, then massage into wet coat. Then rinse well.

Conditioner

The conditioner is a simple one of white vinegar.Vinegar smooths things and makes it soft.
If you don't like the smell of a vinegar dog, put 1 drop of lavander oil in it.
But you hardly smell it. The instructions are below:

3cm of white vinegar.
Pour onto coat, count to 15, then rinse well.

Towl or blow dry or put your dog in the sun. When dried brush thoroughly.

It works :D
Use every two weeks, or as often as needed.
Persevere, hang on till the end. Don't quit, keep going!
