DIY NATURAL SHAMPOO RECIPE (Shikakai, Reetha, Amla, Fenugreek) | Healthy Haircare 

I am from India and I am proud of my ancestors that there remedies is being used by the whole world . Keep going and keep makin such videos.. god bless you !!

When you have all the ingredients and you feel like a boss 😎

Its amazing how God provides everything we need for our bodies and self care in nature.

She actually has the hair they show in hair care advertisements, the ones that are strong and look stunning 😍

As an Indian my mum used to put all that in my hair when I was a kid and I still use it sometimes now. It totally works!

You can boil the remaining stuff again, and you'll have another bottle of shampoo! In India, we either boil it again or dry it in the sun to use it later. Just a tip so that you get the most out of it :)

As an Indian my self I was shocked when I saw words like shikakai, reetha and amla in title ..i thought how does she know about all this ...trust me these are the miracle ingredients and my grandma, mom and I use these and have a beautiful hair,,,, also MEETHI in coconut and castor oil will make your hair thick ...

My mom always used to say old traditions are better. And now as an 18 yr old I agree with her. 1 yr of using this as a shampoo and I swear my hair look way healthier than before. It also doesn't harm the nature much.!!! A win-win!!🤗❤

Honestly of all the long hair I've ever seen ... her's is the best!!

Guys im telling you this recipe works wonders. I am pakistani and i have been using it for a while now. I used to have really bad hairfall but ever since i switched to this herbal shampoo, it has reduced significantly. One day my dad even asked me if i was wearing extensions. Kindly do give it a try. Its so worth it. P.s sorry for my english. Its not my first language.

I am an indian, so proud of ayurveda. the whole world is pursuing our recipes for ayurvedic herbs. if you do it in iron pot it will increase the benefits

I'm from India ,,, but in India we first blend all the jadibuti (herbs) together and store it into a jar ,,,so whenever we need it we take two tbs of that mixture with one cup water then we boil it until it reduced to half then we keep it over night and then in the morning we do the straining Proses and then we use it directly,,,so as I said we put it overnight ,so the reason behind is the herbs get extracted really well ,,,so ,,your shampoo is too runny in consistency ,,,bcs u didn't reduced it ,,,we'll keep growing love from India...

In india we have been using it since ages..but due to westernisation we kind of lost into the world of chemicals..however people in rural areas still use this recipe as shampoo..and they have really great hair..thank you for making this video..its a great inspiration

I've been using this for 3 months now. When I shampoo with dove shampoo I loose 50-100 strands, but when I use this my diy shampoo I lose only 10-15strands. One more recipe: Take hibiscus flower or tea, brew 5 flower or 2 tea bags add 10 pods of shikakai, and leave it overnight. Use this as a shampoo it won't darken the hair.

It's been around 3-5 months since I started using it. I can't emphasize on how amazing it's been for me. I would lose a lot, LIKE A LOT of hair and using this, it's been a blessing.

I'm an spanish woman and I'm learning tresures from indian people,about Ayurveda ,natural remedy,spirituality and more.there so much knowledge in India. I love you guys

THISSSS is what i was looking for with 100% natural hair products… not the fake natural. what a blessing you are thankyou so much for sharing your knowledge

Herbal Shampoo: 7-8 pieces Shikakai 7-8 Areetha (without seeds) Handful of Amla 1-2 tbsp Methi seeds Soak overnight in 3 cups of water. Cook it to a boil, then simmer for 10 mins. Cool. Mash herbs with hands and strain through nut bag. Put in a squeeze bottle. Can be used upto a week in a fridge. Apply shampoo to dry scalp and hair. Massage that in leave it on hair for 3-5 mins.

Wow, this video took me back to my childhood, this was our Sunday morning routine ! My mom used to make this for us but we never realized importance and abundance of natural herbs back then ! Now after settling in US, I have started valuing it , but it’s not so easily available! Anyways thanks a lot for making this video, you really are blessed with most beautiful healthy hair 👌🏽🥰

Proud to be an Indian that whole world is turning towards herbal remedies and these were used by Indians for centuries and thanks to our ancestors for figuring out these medicinal properties in the herbs...

This is literally the best shikakai shampoo tutorial that exists on RU-vid. Great job Sarah!

I use the same recipe with aloevera gel and curry leaves....nd i have 60 inches long hairs....yes im indian🇮🇳

I am from India and my mom has strictly not allowed me to use commercial shampoo because of all the toxic chemicals in it. So she made shikakai at home and istg it’s so much better. It washes your hair better, it leaves that natural shine, and it smells so amazing! Proud of my culture!

When I was in 10th my mum started this and then for next two years I was the girl with longest thickest and best hair in my entire school until one day I decided to chop them up and went ahead with market products now I have grey hair, think and falling hair. This video remind me to what now I should do go back to roots.

Being an INDIAN I already knew this!! And i am using this since years And yeah it really works!do try!

can we appreciate her narration in her videos, so soothing 😍

Your videos really calm me down when I’m sad or mad, I juste come here and it allows me to calm myself and think more about my actions, thank you! You’re really talented!

Your voice and the whole video is so calming, I love the soft but clear tone of your voice. Most influencers yell or talk too much, unnecesary stuff. You have reached just the perfect way! Thank you, I have also subscribed.

Now I can see many proud Indians in the comment section. I always thought why this never came up in your channel and finally you did. I’m always thankful for your wonderful channel , the info you’ve shared so far on this channel were much needed and have changed my life.

She has such an aesthetic prettiness and she always boosts my mood🌱✨

Recently I have seen that my hair has been thinning. I've tried some natural remedies but have seen little change. I will buy all these ingredients and try this out. I remember going to India and saw a lot of women having beautiful long hair! I really admire their culture and for all the amazing herbs and natural remedies that they have. EDIT: SO ... after so long and procrastinating on getting the ingredients I finally made it and will try to update in the next 2 weeks on my experience. My hair has been thinning even more for some reason. So Im ready to start and see a natural difference in my hair :)

Have been using this remedy since childhood. Its a chemical free blessing for hairs. Thanks for considering our ancient practices. Much love from India😘😘💙💚💛💜

Love this channel!! Something about it is just so relaxing in these crazy times. Getting alot of great tips!!

I have used this for months now. This works! My hair is touching my bottom now! Even if one just uses The soap nuts and water alone it works. Boil it for 15-20min let cool and use---non stripping. Love it

Wow!How calming her voice is!! It's too relaxing.

This is exactly what all Indian grandmothers used...and their hair were amazing and never greyed.....Love from India♥️♥️♥️

You are so not kidding me I've been looking this for soooooooooooooooooooo long and the notification just popped up thank you so much sarah love you 😘♥️♥️💕

This is my childhood! When my mum used to wash my hair and I loved the feeling shikakai on my hair.

Proud to say that I've been using the same shampooing technique for 2 years now, I can say that my hair which had a brownish shade is all black and thick now, and the conditioning this shampoo does is amazing. Definitely the best for people with thinner hair or hair fall issues, which in my case I have hypothyroidism and thin hair(used to have, but it's definitely better now)and I swear by this shampoo my whole life. Bit time and effort consuming but definitely gives you positive result overtime with consistent use.

You can just grind the residual part and apply it as hair mask...also a bit of lemon and yoghurt... Love from India

And it makes your hair MORE beautiful, Sarah. 😍💓

your voice make me relaxed it's like meditation every time I want to relax I go see your videos so lovely have you here ✨

In India we use this remedy since vedic period as ayurvedic remedy thank-you for spreading this ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you for this lovely video and your wonderful presentation! How delighted I am as an Indian to see you use these ancient Ayurvedic herbs to wash your hair. Though I was raised around these, I found myself instead using a whole lot of bottled products with fancy labels. Now after suffering hair damage from anti frizz chemically filled products and counter shampoos with impressive labels that did no good, I’ve turned back to all of these herbs and also add neem and hibiscus flowers to this diy shampoo. I use the powders not seeds. Hope this restores my hair to the long thick hair I had. I’m sure it takes patience and time. Your cascade of hair is truly beautiful. I hope this shampoo made a big difference to you. 🙏🏾❤️🌹

we still use this methods in india as the best natural shampoo. I personally use this natural shampoo.This is all our granny's methods but still used by people of india and people all around the world. Really proud of our "Rishi munni"in order to give us such a Excellent methods for keeping our hair healthy. Your hairs are so beautiful really love it and the amount efforts you put in. God bless you pretty girl lots of love.

Perfect timing! I just bought fenugreek powder and Amla powder 💕

I’ve tried it with just powder of those herbs and it worked wonders, my hair was clean, shiny and silky. I was amazed

Using this from childhood...makes hair long healthy and beautiful...love from India.

Let me start off by saying how healthy and gorgeous your hair looks. It's beautiful. And you take such wonderful care of it. Thank you for explaining all of it so wonderfully. In my family, we have been using these powders for as long as I can remember. It has been passed down for generations in our house. Another thing we use along with all those you have mentioned, especially for children, since shikakhai can be quite unforgiving on the eye, is skip it altogether and use the leaves or powder of a tree called albizia amara. It's like the soap nut and very gooey but doesn't sting at all. We also add fresh or powdered curry leaves and hibiscus. It might sound like it's a lot, but we get fresh ingredients, dry them during summer and powder them to last a few months.

Love 'home remedies' and natural ways to treat the body, mind and spirit! Thanks for that. I would also love to see what you usually eat? You speak often of the gut-mind connection and i completely agree and i am trying to work on that myself but would love to get some inspirations from you. Thanks a lot Sarah. Hope you are your loved ones are well. Take care. Love. Z.

One commenter suggested first massaging scalp with oil(s) before using this shampoo. That reminds me of something I've been thinking about which is: in skincare it's often recommended to double-cleanse, which means oil or oil-based cleanser first (to remove grime, well especially sunscreen and makeup) - THEN a water-based cleanser which truly removes the oil along with the grime. (Plus if I'm understanding this right, plant-based oils are emollients which is a barrier that both seals in any moisture already there and prevents good products from absorbing in, so I imagine leaving on oils that aren't washed off is best as a last step after all products and moisturizers). So it makes sense to me to first oil-massage scalp (also for the massage therapy/reflexology benefits plus different oils help balance different Ayurvedic doshas such as sesame oil calms/grounds Vata...could stand on towel or sit to not slip or even get full-body oil massage before shower) then use a gentle, water-based shampoo (such as perhaps this video's recipe which looks so fun). Especially if someone uses hair products, sweats, or gets dirty. And double-cleanse helps remove bacteria, odor, and old skin cells. As for nourishing, strengthening, softening, smoothing, shine, volumizing, defining, and hydrating ingredients, I'd think the most important place for those and spending much money (for hair or skin) is as a leave-on step after the double-cleanse since it'll have such longer contact with body than a quickly washed-off cleanser. Such as in a leave-in conditioner or deep conditioner or protein mask or well-formulated gels/creams/milks/mousses/sprays/whatnots for hair (or serums and moisturizer for skin). Then maybe seal and smooth it all up last with a little oil (probably better than silicone)? Disclaimer: I'm no scientist or hair expert, just trying to logically put together guesses and pieces of things I've learned from a zillion videos (and used to work in massage). Please everyone always do your own research and consult experts! I'm very open to feedback and continual learning! Also: great video! I'm curious how the gorgeous footage at the end was filmed! Edit: After writing all this I watched the video again. Whoops, it says leave this shampoo on 2-5 minutes (so guess it is on long enough for ingredients to have an effect). And it does mention oil as a first step but says it doesn't remove oil so there is another shampoo suggested for that. Cool!

Being Indian i m proud of my ancestors for such natural remedies love from india keep growing

Everything was amazing about this video. The music and scenery were lovely as was your hair. The explanations were perfect and thanks for showing how to make it with the powders as those whole ingredients are hard to find. I usually put a lot of oil in my hair but I'm interested in trying this anyways. Thanks for sharing!!!

The first time I used it, I couldn't believe how good the result was. My hair was voluminous, clean, soft !!! I didn't tell anyone cause MI Familia likes store-bought shampoos with sls and stuff. So happy I saw your video!

Wow...it's a very nice video. I am an Indian and I just love the fact that people from different countries also trying these things . Nice video .😊

I am from India and i feel so proud that people outside india are using the remedies suggested by our ancestors 😍😍❤❤

To all those who doubt if it works I would say this method is a tried and tested one for ages in India. If you are the one who loves everything clean and organic. Give this a try! Soapnuts need to be slightly less in quantity than Shikakai as it can be a bit drying. It may take a little getting used to initially as it doesn't lather much like store bought shampoos. You need to wash twice if you oil your hair before wash. But the result will be clean and lustrous looking hair for sure.

Can you do a whole Video on how to cut split ends Because I’m still confused on what they even are and how to cut😩? Like so she sees😁

A great tip - don't throw away the residue. One just needs to remove seeds if any, and then grind the residue (add some water if required) and use that paste as well. It's just same / even better than using plain boiled water

Omg this is fascinating. I totally believe this is the way to go. I use as natural shampoo and conditioner as possible (in natural hair care section) but I’m thinking this is THE GOAL!!!

This is exactly what I needed! I am trying the "No Poo" method and wanted a gentle hair cleanser to use. I think I will try this!

Your hair is soo beautiful, thank you so much for this recipe, I’m definitely going to try it :)

I can attest to the fact that amla and amla oil is excellent for the hair. I've been using it for a few years and my hair is much stronger than it used to be.

I started following your shampoo recipe and it's really awesome. My complete family uses this. Love from India ❤️

Her hair is goalllsss But she invests so much time and money to the products she uses Even the essential oils are sooo expensive Like whaaatt

Girl I used to watch you all the time, you’re the reason I bought a wooden brush and seep with protective hairstyles 🤍 I want to do this sooo bad and I want to follow your skincare routine !!

I’ve made this with the addition of Flaxseeds and Seamoss and the baby version of Castile Soap, no African Black Soap Turned out Amazing, use it every week myself.

You have a very soothing and calm voice!! Thank you for showing how to use this!

Hi... I'm from Bharath too & I'm pretty Sure it Lather. Tip: use it when it is little bit hotter than Luke warm after oil massaging your Scalp. ( Adding Hibiscus leaves , neem leaves & indigo leaves along with the ingredients you are using is kinda original recipe we use here... )Lots of love from Bharath ♥️

You have helped my skin and hair glow!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank God I belong to eastern country. These ingredients are easily available. Gonna try this today.😍 love from Pakistan.🇵🇰

you are such a gentle person :) i really like your voice and thanks for sharing!

Thanks for making this video, I'll definitely try that and see if it has any positive effect on my psoriasis !

Thank you for letting us know about this herbal diy shampoo. I made it and used it. My hairfall has reduced, dandruff is gone, my frizzy hair has moisture now and it shines too. Overall it's an amazing creation for hair problems. I used the paste as a hair mask and it worked well for my short hair. Thank you soooooooo much!

We r luckiest that we have all these herbs alhamdulillah. Im from Pakistan and my ansastrs using these herbs fr a long time still these r precious fr us there is no comparison of naturopathy

Do I have been using this shampoo for a few months now and I can see a huge difference in my hair! It is healthier and my scalp feels amazing! Thank you!

I have started using shikakai and amla and methi as shampoo,yes darlings I have stopped using store bought shampoo altogether and my hair feels and looks amazing. And I have used it only for a month.

You are so amazing, and such an inspiration to me!!!!!

I just bought an Ayurvedic shampoo with all natural ingredients from an Indian shop! Today was my first day using it and it was lovely! I incorporate these powders into my conditioners and I use the fenugreek seeds in my spray bottle ( I boil it like tea) And my hair has been thriving! I will try this recipe once I run out of shampoo ^^

I use this shampoo everyweek bcz i am indian.... Proud to see u... Best shampoo ever... ❤...

If you want it raw, you could try crushing/grinding it with a mortar and pestle to get it really concentrated, and strain through a nut milk bag. It would capture much more of the compounds in the ingredients.

I can say that the method you mentioned are absolutely perfect, am from India....I don't use bottled store bought shampoo or conditioner but rather make my own at home, it's a bit of hardwork but it's worth it guys ....it's not like I've been using it from childhood, I really had good hair while in school then in college my hair got real bad, bcoz I didn't care enough, also started using shampoo and conditioner which I thought were doing good but it was not, it got so frizzy and dry, also so much hairfall....then I tried to stay away from these chemicals loaded shampoo for a long time....then started making these shampoo at home..... let me tell you guys I have been using this natural methods since like almost 4 yrs and hairfall has reduced and it's gentle andd doesn't wash away the good oils from the scalp, you don't even need conditioner atleast I don't use it.... sometimes u feel dry then may be just a pump or two of oil at the hairtips and just leave it like that it will get absorbed and condition your hair well, also one good thing is I have never ever used dryer or blower to dry my hair, it was always air drying, here in India most of us do air drying only and hair is very much sensitive to heat so no heat goes into hair.....I just love how people are starting to recognise the methods we have in our country since ages and transitioning to this method was the best I made for my hair. Have a good hair day 😉

This video is perfect example of how informative RU-vid video should be. All aspects covered. All alternative methods covered. All info rightly explained. 👍👍

I make this herbal shampoo for my hair love it. I can't use anything else on my hair other store bought shampoo makes my hair itch. Thanks for this reciepe love it❤

I am from Bangladesh and proud to say that my ancestors had been using these methods for a long time. Specifically Amla , methi, aloe Vera and coconut oil and trust me this works extremely well.

I'm Indian and have been using this for years. I always get compliments for thick hairs☺

What a great week! I will be making this in the New Year, when all my products start running out. I tested out cornstarch for dry shampoo and I love it because it doesn't give me a headache. I made flaxseed gel for work days and it worked better than most of the store-bought products I have tried. I'm probably going to make hairspray out of sugar and water next.

im from Pakistan and my father used to tell us same ingredients for hair growth. amazing n lots of love thanks for sharing this shampoo ❤💗💓💖

Even I used have hair just like her straight bouncy and little wavy when I was in 7th standard . I never have split ends because of thick hair,my braids looks thicker then but as a teen I didn't take a good hair care and now I'll starting loosing my thick hair and it's not re growing.now I start to losing my confidence but honestly you'll have to a good genes if you want her's type of hair .

Genetics is the most important factor forgotten by everyone

Hibiscus flower is added to the shikakai reetha alma mix before grinding it down. It gives the red colour and a BEAUTUFUL perfume. But it's boiled 1st then sat overnight and added befire processing into paste.

Methi dana (seeds) are so good for health. You can also use them in food, esp. when cooking indian vegetable stew. Beside their nutritional benefits, these seeds give amazing flavor in food. You must try it! I never know methi dana can also be applied to hair. Amazing! thanks

This is Indian method, these gifts of nature have been used by Indians since a very very long time. I feel so elated to see foreigners using and praising our things.

Indian trust things more when they are taught about it by Non Indians who actually believe without prejudice and really give it a chance. Thanks a lot for this Video Ma'am.

Indian 🇮🇳 here. Ive used thiss for soooo longggg !!!! I RECOMMEND

so fun to see reminds me at home in pakistan grandmother making this shampoo and do our hair in childhood she 2o7ld handgrind the ingredients first before boiling also added green tea powdered thank you bringing me back in time

Hi, I'm from India, thanks for sharing this video. We hv been using this from childhood by our ancestors and its passed on to us. Don't believe in chemical shampoos, but give this a try and you will love this shampoo and forget the chemical shampoo. God bless you all..

You can use conditioner for the paste. I always add 2 tbl into the paste and you'll have a gloss. I just add in henna or cassia and it's easy to rinse out and leaves no mess :) Soothing and beautiful video as always

Thank you for this! works super duper well

I’ve made this shampoo but using Henna, Bhringraj and Fenugreek powders. A few drops of an essential oil and I’m loving it. Cuts my time washing my hair in half. (Usually takes 15 minutes).
