To go along with the eco-friendly shampoo, I'm now using eco-friendly conditioner. I found that the eco-friendly shampoo I am using is drying my hair out. (I guess all the yucky chemical additives of my other shampoo was what made my hair nice, soft and shiny. The commercials really are true!)
I'm using the conditioner every other wash, and it seems to be alleviating the dryness. I never used to have to use it, so I don't like purchasing another bottle, creating more waste, and using more precious resources so my hair looks nice. On the other hand, I am a bit vain, and don't enjoy looking like I could double for a scarecrow on a bad hair day! :)
When my current bottle of shampoo is finished, I'm going to try another brand to see if I still have the dryness problems. Any favourites among my readers that you could recommend?
The inspiration for this blog came after reading Vanessa Farquharson's book, Sleeping Naked is Green, and wondering if her new eco-lifestyle was really applicable to a family of 5 that was already fairly environmentally friendly. At the urging of a friend, I took on the challenge of trying to improve my family's "green-ness", using the book as a template. This blog will record our attempts to improve our environmental foot-print one small change at a time.
