Ask Spirit: How I Get Sulfate-Free Organic Shampoo to Lather
Some of you have already gotten used to – and I’ve heard – may even like the fact that sulfate-free shampoo may NOT lather. But for those of us who have thick, coarse or curly hair, getting the shampoo to span scalp to ends, without the aid of foam, can mean we end up using way too much product, which can lead to hair that ends up a straw-like, dull mess. Well, I’ve been using a DIY solution for years and I am pleased to reveal to you:

THE MUSTARD BOTTLE
…or an old hair dye squeeze bottle would do. Add a couple squeezes or pumps of shampoo to the empty bottle. Fill the rest up with warm water from the shower. Shake it up pretty good and voila! You’ve got foam! This isn’t going to rival the old conventional type of lather that a rubber duckie could float on but it will allow you to use the nozzle to evenly dispense the product throughout long or thick hair, and directly onto the scalp without going through half a bottle.
Ok, it’s not rocket science but I bet you hadn’t thought of it yet, had you?!
