Baking soda is a versatile ingredient known for its cleansing properties, but did you know it can also help promote healthy hair growth? When used correctly, baking soda can remove buildup, stimulate the scalp, and create a clean, balanced environment for hair to grow stronger and faster. Here’s how to make and use baking soda shampoo to support hair growth naturally.
Why Baking Soda is Great for Hair
Deep Cleansing
Baking soda effectively removes dirt, oil, and product buildup from the scalp, allowing hair follicles to breathe and function optimally.
Balances Scalp pH
While slightly alkaline, baking soda can help balance an overly oily scalp when used sparingly, promoting a healthy environment for hair growth.
Stimulates Scalp
Massaging baking soda shampoo into your scalp increases blood circulation, which can boost hair follicle activity.
How to Make Baking Soda Shampoo
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 cup water
1-2 drops of essential oil (optional, for fragrance and added benefits—lavender or rosemary work well)
Instructions:
Mix baking soda and water in a bottle or container until dissolved.
Add a drop or two of your favorite essential oil for fragrance and nourishment.
How to Use:
Wet your hair thoroughly.
Pour the baking soda mixture over your scalp, focusing on the roots.
Gently massage your scalp for 1–2 minutes to stimulate blood flow.
Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Optional: Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse
After using baking soda, follow up with an apple cider vinegar (ACV) rinse to restore your hair’s natural pH balance.
