Commercially available aloe vera gel is sold in bottles and they come in varying degrees of purity. Many of these commercial products contain additives and chemicals. Since you’ll be using this shampoo directly on your hair and scalp, it’s best to get the purest aloe vera gel you can find. Check the label and ingredients before you buy a product. Make sure it’s certified organic and labelled as “pure.”  If it lists any chemical names or alcohol as ingredients, look for a different brand. You can buy aloe vera gel at most grocery stores, but these tend to be the less pure versions. A health or natural medicine shop is the best place to obtain pure aloe vera gel that is certified organic. Harvesting the fresh gel from an aloe plant will provide the most beneficial results. If you don’t grow aloe vera in your home, consider buying a few plants. To harvest the gel, start by cutting off one full leaf from the plant. Slice the leaf open length-wise and pull apart the two halves. Scoop out the thick, translucent gel with a spoon.  Spoon the fresh gel into a clean bowl nearby. You only need 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of fresh gel, which you can harvest quickly and easily. It will only take a few aloe vera leaves to provide that amount. Aloe vera gel is a great moisturizer and can naturally promote hair growth. It’s a great carrier if you want to include natural herbs for added benefits. You can use any combination of the following dried herbs, as needed, as long as you don’t use more than 2 ounces (56 grams) total.  For dry hair use nettle, burdock, rosemary or calendula. For oily hair use yarrow, lavender, lemon balm or mint. If you have blonde hair try calendula or chamomile. If you have dark hair try sage or comfrey. To combat dandruff try rosemary, thyme or any of the herbs for dry hair. Essential oils are concentrated extracts from natural plants. Many of them smell nice and others may have medicinal properties. There are quite a few essential oils that can benefit the health of your hair and scalp. You can use any combination of the following oils in your shampoo, but do not use more than 50 drops total.  For normal hair use lavender, clary sage or chamomile. For oily hair use lemon, tea tree or ylang-ylang. For dry hair try rosemary, myrrh or peppermint. To combat dandruff try tea tree, patchouli or lavender.  Never use essential oils directly on your scalp, since they are highly concentrated and extremely potent. In this case, the other ingredients in the shampoo will safely dilute the oils.
