You only need one ingredient – egg – to make the basic recipe. But there are some extras you can add in, depending on your hair’s need.

Ingredients

  • 1 Egg

Optional add-ins

  • 4 drops of Peppermint Essential Oil (or essential oil of your choice)
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon/Lime juice (cleansing, helps with hard water)
  • 1 teaspoon Honey (moisturizing)
  • 1 teaspoon Aloe Vera (moisturizing)
  • 1 teaspoon Olive Oil (use for dry/distressed hair)
  • 1 teaspoon Amla Powder (beneficial in hair loss and adds shine)
  • 1 tablespoon Henna or Cassia (to thicken the mixture; use henna for dark hair and cassia for lighter hair)

Method: Whisk the egg in a bowl. Add the optional ingredients if using and mix thoroughly. You can choose to add some warm water (2 to 4 tablespoon) to this mixture. If you have oiled your hair or have very greasy hair then do not dilute it.

How to use: There are two ways you can use egg shampoo:

  1. Use without wetting/rinsing the hair. This will help emulsify the oils better and get your hair really clean.
  2.  Use on wet hair: If your hair isn’t too oily you can use after rinsing the hair with water.

Pour a little egg shampoo mixture into your hand. Massage/scrub it into your scalp and hair (as you would any shampoo). Leave it on for 5 – 10 minutes and then wash out thoroughly with lukewarm water.

Fatty acid in the egg conditions the hair beautifully. If your hair is prone to dryness, apply a leave-in conditioner post wash. That will keep your hair conditioned and moisturized. This egg shampoo cleans the hair and increases bounciness and smoothness of hair without stripping it of natural oils.
