And also i am using this brand called "Meera" herbal shampoo powder. is it a good brand? whenever i oil my hair and wash it .. after it dries it is still oily. Sorry for asking so many questions and thanks for your help in advance

Hi,

I also have the same problem because of my curly hair. What I do is to oil the hair till the ends before I take the shampoo bath. I have not used Meera herbal and I don't know about it . I use biotique henna hair cleanser for my hair. The hair is controllable and the ends are not that dry. The next day I take a little oil in my fingertips and apply at the ends of hair. This helps me to maintain my hair. You can also try this and then let me know.

Latha

hi
these are the key ingredients for the meera herbal powder : Eucalyptus globulus, Vifna radiata, Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, Madhuca longifolia, Cinnamomum tamala, cyperus rotundus, lippia nodiflora, acacia concinna, ocimum sanctum, hedychium spicatum, albizia amara, vetivaria zizaniodes, trigonella foenum-graecum, sapindus trifoliatus, conditioners , excipients q.s.

Shikakai, green gram, tulsi, vettiver and reetha for clean and healthy hair

hibiscus and fenugreek for soft and conditioned hair.

how do i make home-made shikakai powder? Singapore does not sell all these wonderful, natural stuff.. i can get packet shikakai powder and i dont have fenugreek. thanks again :)

hi Latha, what oil do you use? do you wash it off? thanks =)

haha i guess ill have to agree too.. i was shocked when i noticed that it lathered a little bit. and the details mention "key ingredients" not ingredients. thanks for the info. by the way does shikakai lather?

HI,

They also add one boondhikkai and that lathers I think those are known as soapnuts in English.

What I use is Coconut oil with kesavardhini hair oil. I have been using this oil from my childhood.

Love
Latha
