May I suggest clicking on the Files section of our Home page and typing your

recipes there, so we'll be able to refer to them later? They sound great!

Thanks.

i for one would love to have your recipes. i am looking forward to making some

KT products.

i am one month into using only baking soda to wash my hair, followed by a KT

rinse and i love it! before the switch, i was using Dr. Bronners liquid soap

with the KT rinse, and that was good but i like the " no-poo " strategy better. i

had found with the Dr. Bronners/KT that i lost less hair than i did when i used

shampoo, but with the baking soda, i am down to just a few stray hairs in my

brush. wow! before i would have a large clump of hair everytime i shampooed, and

my DH complained about having to take the tub stopper out and clean the

trap frequently. i have very thick hair and dont worry about hair loss,

but anyone who does should consider trying this. i now think all that hair loss

was a symptom of assaulting my scalp with chemicals in commercial hair products.

my biggest hair problem was frizz, and that is much reduced also. i think its

the combination of the soda and KT that sets up the right environment for the

scalp. soda by

itself seems to be too drying, but if you take a cup or so of the sourest KT

you have and rinse, leave in for about 3 minutes, then rinse out, it leaves your

hair clean, shiny and soft.

i expect the KT lotions to be just as beneficial. i will take courage from you

and add some scobys to some food recipes too and share how it turns out.

Can you explain the baking soda " shampoo " also? How much do you use and do

you make a paste of it with water?

I've got a small patch of thinning hair and although it's getting

better.your idea sounds intriguing enough to try. Thanks for sharing.

Hi, . I know this OT, so I'll only send it to you. I've been using a

shower filter for about 2 weeks now after my mother-in-law saw Dr. Oz on Oprah

suggest that it's the simplest way to improve hair and skin. He was right! My

hair is softer, my conditioner works better, and I noticed that my hair falls

out WAY less than it used it. Later I found out that he mentioned that

decreased hairloss is one of the common improvements brought on by filtering out

chlorine from the shower.

I know I must sounds like a preacher or crazy telemarketer to others, but i

can't stop talking about how great this simple thing is. Every household among

my family is getting one for christmas.

anyway, i think any brand will work. i've seen them at home depot and lowe's

(GE and Sprite brands for about $20), amazon.com (there's a culligan for about

$17). oh, and you can read everybody else's reviews there.

i don't know if it will help spotty hair loss, but i think it will improve your

hair over-all. good luck!
