Yesterday, I made a hair rinse using my sage. I decided to also make a leave-in conditioner for dry hair, using sage. Once my lavender starts producing more, I can utilize that as well.

Herbal Hair Care
I decided to start utilizing my herb garden for uses other than culinary. We love to add them to our food, but I wanted to start making our own hair care products from scratch. I also want to see if it will save us money on buying manufactured shampoo and other items.

This morning my youngest daughter and myself, tried the conditioner. I myself, used the rinse also. Wow! My hair is so soft too. With 4 girls in the house, and dry hair, I will save so much money on conditioner. Now, the next venture is to make shampoo. Hopefully, I can locate an inexpensive, and homemade recipe to try.

Wake Up Call
It's not what you'd expect for a wake up call, but I woke up from a wet willy. An 80 pound hairy blob sitting on me, wagging her tail so hard the bed was shaking. The wet willy was her tongue of course. Blech.
