give it a shot, you have nothing to loose!

two fun finds: 



1.Adding baking soda to your shampoo
Did you know by adding baking soda to your shampoo 2-3 times a month is good for it? Me neither! Baking Soda hair wash method is a woman's best friend when it comes to hair care. A baking soda hair wash will clean out the excess product, remove impurities, and clean your hair better then any expensive product on the market.  I gave this little anomaly a try and I was very happy with the results.
what I did:  sprinkle a dash of baking soda into your palm and mix with your shampoo. Rinse and condition as usual.  try this out a few times a month to get rid of hairspray build up!  On a complete side note...imagine my husbands reaction when he sees me heading to the shower with a bath towel and a box of baking soda! :-)  source



2. Lemonade packet


Original purpose: Quenching your thirst.
 Aha! use: Cleaning lime deposits and iron stains inside the dishwasher. Pour a packet of lemonade Kool-Aid (the only flavor that works) into the detergent cup and run the (empty) dishwasher.
 Reward: Citric acid in the mix wipes out stains; you don't have to.tried this too..it really worked.  pretty cool, huh?  source






Do you have any others that might be interesting?

A little trick I learned... When cleaning glass or windows use newspaper to wipe after you spray glass cleaner. It doesn't leave hardly any streaks. Really works well and a good way to use up those old newspapers instead of just throwing them away!

you can also rinse your hair with apple cider vinegar once in a while to strip buildup and make your scalp feel extra-clean! :)

But never, ever confuse these two tips! You don't want to dye your hair with Kool-aid!!
