Hi everyone!

I went looking at Coles today and found Tea Tree oil andLavender oil for $15 for 50ml. I think this is quite expensive. Especiallyif I am meant to be putting in approx 20 drops of each into the BS and the ACV rinse.

I wasn't able to find any Rosemary oil either.... So where do I get these? and what price should I be looking at?

Also does it matter if the Bicarbonate Soda is in powder form? That's all I could find in Coles.

And finally, here's 2 things that has confused me with SE's recipe. Is apple cider vinegar at type of vinegar you buy from the supermarket? and what the hell is cocoa butter? Isn't that some sort of chocolate stuff? I'm not too keen on putting that in my hair haha

Any help would be great help thanks guys!

Thanks so much :)

Thanks SE. That's great. My dreads are a year old now. Quite tight. I might give the cocoa butter a shot. Maybe not every wash though I'll see how it goes.

I've been using Dr Bronners shampoo for a long time now, but recently I've started to notice some dandruff and my head is itchy. I don't think I've seen a bad post about the BS ACV wash and rinse, so i'll give that a go.

Thanks
