Chamomile Shampoo Recipe 1
Chamomile makes a mild shampoo that is gentle to the hair and the pocketbook. You need only one tablespoon for one wash. Use leftover pieces of pure soap instead of soap flakes, if you prefer.

• 1 handful fresh or dried chamomile flowers
• 1 1/4 cup boiling water
• 3 tablespoons pure soap flakes
• 1 tablespoon glycerin
• 5 drops yellow food coloring

You will need 2 heatproof bowls, a sieve, a wooden spoon, and a clean 14 ounce bottle with tight-fitting cover. 1. Place the flowers in a bowl and add the boiling water. Let stand for 15 minutes, then strain into the other bowl. 2. Clean the first bowl. Combine the soap flakes and hot infusion in it. Let stand until the soap softens -- a few minutes. Beat in glycerin and food coloring until well blended. 3. Pour the mixture into the bottle. Keep in a cool, dark place.

Chamomile Shampoo Recipe 2

• 4 tablespoons pure soap flakes
• 4 bags of Chamomile tea
• 1 1/2 tablespoons glycerin

Let the tea bags steep in 1 1/2 cups of boiled water for 10 minutes. Remove the tea bags and with the remaining liquid add the soap flakes. Let stand until the soap softens. Stir in glycerin until mixture is well blended. Pour into a bottle. Keep in a dark, cool place.
