Peace friends,

Recently purchased Dr.Bronners 18-1 Hemp Peppermint Castile Soap(liquid). Prior to now I have been using the BS wash, about half cup mixed into a 1gallon pitcher. I have found that while the wash is effective it's still leaves my hair with a kinda funky scent, I'm a frequent Gym goer so sweat is a friend of mine, I'm hoping the new peppermint soap will help with the scent. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to perhaps mix the Bronner's with BS? and if so what ratio?

Thanks!

Dr. B's needs to be diluted anywhere from 12-40 times. I used it for a long time, but I know what you mean. I loved how it smelled when I used it as soap, but when I washed my hair with it, I ended up with a mild wet dog smell for about a day. It went away as soon as my hair dried, and it was so mild that no one could smell it. But I could because my nose is right there.

The dreadlockshampoos soaps smell better but I have been having trouble getting all of the residue out from it. That's my problem, though. No one else, who uses it, has seemed to have had that problem.

I'd recommend using it as is. You could mix it with BS, but like Eagle said, if you have hard water, it wont rinse out well. And the ACV rinse wont get the rest out either. So find out if you have hard water first. Wash you hands with it. If they feel dry as a bone afterwards, you should be good. If they feel even a little slippery, then you might have softer water
