You can try rinsing it with diluted apple cider vinegar.

i have read that if you use vinegar solution on your hair before you wash your hair it will come out shiney and healthy. the reason i don't like using the vinegar solution for a rinse is that my girlfriend used to do this and even tho
she rinsed very well she still smelled like a salad!!

Egg shampoos help and so will a clarifying Shampoo. Pantene makes a good one.
Olive oil, coconut oil also help bring out the shine, just use enough to rub your hand together and run through your hair.

I truly care for hair care being a girl and this remedy help me a lot for conditioning my hair.

Beat egg yolk thoroughly to make a frothy solution. Add 1 tsp baby oil and beat again to make a proper mixture. Add water to this mixture and apply it all over your scalp. Once dry, rinse well to get a proper conditioned treatment.

Hello to you am a newbie too in this forum but i decided to say a word on your case and hope it helps you get out these itches.

The best way to have organic control over your hair care routine is by making your own shampoos and conditioners at home.In creating an at home shampoo, many people use a base of castille soap. Now, castille soap is basically a vegetable based oil soap as opposed to most commercial soap bases which use a base of animal fat.

There are many varieties of castile soap that come from the natural oil base that they are made from. The most popular castile soap bases are: Olive oil, Hemp oil, Coconut Oil, Almond oil and Jojoba oil.

You have two options when it comes to building your shampoo from a castille soap base and that is to either to make it from scratch or buy a pre-made base from an organic soap maker.Once you have chosen your castile soap base, you can add your essential and/or fragrance oils to the mixture. Different oils will affect the hair in different ways depending on what you are looking for in a home made shampoo. For instance if you are looking to control dandruff and to sooth an itchy scalp, then you would add Tea Tree oil and Chamomile to your shampoo base. If you wanted to add extra shine to your hair with a great scent, then you would add Lemongrass.
Here are some oil and herb combinations that you can used based on creating a shampoo that begins with 4oz of castile soap for placement in an 8oz bottle.

* Dandruff Control: 1/2oz Tea Tree oil and 2 1/2oz strained Chamomile Tea.
* Extra Shine: 2 1/2 oz strained Lemongrass Tea and 1/2oz Rosemary oil.
* Control Oily Hair: 1/2oz Lavender oil and 2 1/2oz strained Sage tea.
* Thicken Hair: 1oz Rosemary oil and 1/2oz strained Nettles.

Once you have created your at home organic shampoo, you'll want to store the bottle in a cool and dark area. Because you are creating something using natural and organic ingredients, the product must be used and cannot have an indefinite shelf life as the chemical additive shampoos that are on the market today.

Try these remedies
• Use vinegar for your final rinse.
• To bring shine one can use honey to keep your scalp moisturized. You can make honey lotion for your hair by mixing 3 teaspoons of honey for pint of water.
• The use of henna as a natural conditioner proves to be very beneficial for your hair. It helps to bring back the bounce and flair of your hair which has been lacking for quite a while.
• You can add small amount of baking soda in the shampoo which, removes dirt and grease from your hair to give you the shiny look.

You can also make Egg shampoo at home which requires 1 egg, 1 teaspoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon castile soap, 1/2 a cup water or herbal tea and last but not the least 5 drops of essential oils of your choice. Blend all these together to make an Egg shampoo which can bring shine to your hair.

You can use mayonnaise to make you hair shiny. Let it set for 10 to 15 minutes and remember to rinse it thoroughly. Good luck!
