DIY Shampoo

I am trying out a new homemade shampoo.  I used this recipe from Our Oily House, but used Argon oil instead of the Jojoba oil and also doubled the ingredients.  I also used the hair loss oil blends with extra peppermint because I like how it smells.  Wish me luck!  My daughter is getting married in October, so I have roughly a month for my hair to get used to this new chemical free shampoo blend. I like that I already had all of the supplies on hand and did not have to make a run to the store.  I hope to make the DIY dry shampoo spray (also from Our Oily Home) next, but I don't keep vodka in the house.  I am wondering if maybe witch hazel might be a substitute for that. I have gotten away from using natural products with a heavy work load the past three years teaching online at the wee hours of the morning.  However, due to some new education laws in China, I have found myself at the end of that job and more time to focus on the things I love like homemaking, homeschooling, my neglected garden, and more.
