Been there done, that will never do it again. I ruined my hair and it took a while for me to bring it back to life not to mention having to re-color my hair which was a double whammy. I still keep hearing my sister, saying what did you expect? that is what you use to clean out the drain.elijahboy said:from experience vinegar and baking soda will strip away any dye you put in your hair in no time flat

Probably the combination of chemicals from the dye, plus the vinegar and baking soda that really killed your hair. I've used the BS and ACV now for going on 2 years and my hair is healthier than it has ever been before.

How much of the baking soda and ACV do you use per no-poo shampoo?

To be completely honest, the soap I make tastes pretty damn good. It has a nice sweet taste to it, lol. I don't think I could punish my kids by washing their mouths out with it.
As for your hair being nasty with it, you really do need an adjustment period to get your hair back to normal. I was using Pantene Pro V (a client gave me two HUGE bottles of it, I sure as heck wouldn't pay those prices!) and then switched over to White Rain (got it for like $5 for I think 28 of the 18oz bottles) and at first I thought "oh, what a HUGE mistake that purchase was, my hair is like straw!" I was too cheap to buy new stuff, so I cut back washing to like twice a week, and then it got back to the condition it was in when I was using the Pantene, and I'm back to my usual schedule of washings.
