steep herbs and flowers (I get mine from my garden, but you could used dry and things like chamomile tea bags) in 1/2 c. boiling water for fifteen minute. Strain when cool, squeezing all the liquid out of the plant material. Add 1/3 c. liquid castile soap (I use Dr. Bronner's Lavender), 1/4 cup organic coconut milk- or make your own, 1 tsp olive oil or sweet almond oil or castor oil, a few drops essential oil of your choice.

For conditioner: I use apple cider vinegar- 1 part to 4 parts water, 1 egg yolk and rosemary oil which I make- all whisked together. Keeps well in the fridge.
