Reetha, Amla & Shikakai Home Made Shampoo - Weekend Experiment

Good Morning Lovelies, I hope your weekend was fun. Mines was, well, ho-hum, but anyways, we are not talking about that here (let’s save that cribbing for twitter).

I have been suffering from quite a bit of hair fall since some time. I have tried changing products to using intensive conditioning and the works. It stops the hair fall for while, but then it rears its ugly head again.

So on lark, & for lack of better things to do, my best friend & I decided to make some Reetha – Amla – Shikakai shampoo at home. This century old ayurvedic herbal concoction is reputed to not only strengthen hair, but also darken it and stop hair fall.

I got the 3 biggies from a local kirana store. All 3 are priced at 15 Rs for 100gms.


Reetha
How to: Soak 5 pieces of Shikakai, 4 balls of Reetha  (Soapnut) & handful of Amla (Indian Gooseberry)  in about 500 ml of water overnight. In the morning, heat the mixture on gas till it just starts to boil. Let it cool, when lukewarm mash all the amla, reetha and Shikakai to a pulp to extract all the “goodness” (a lot of suds & froth is produced at this point).

Strain (don’t skip this or else you’ll end up with bits of shikakai & Amla mesh stuck in your hair – I talk from experience – Don’t ask) and use the liquid to wash your hair.  


Shikakai
The experience is a little different from using a shampoo. The moment the liquid touches your hair, it will seem to go all rough and entangled, the way to use this is to apply the liquid all over the hair and let it soak for 2-4 minutes before washing it all off with water. Don’t try and massage and lather like your shampoo – your hair will just get even more entangled than ever. Just apply the entire 500 ml generously all over wet hair hair and scalp. Let it soak, don’t disturb and wash off.

After 4 minutes, I rinsed very well with water and applied some conditioner to the hair ends.

Caution: Don’t let this enter your eyes – they will STING like nothing else has.

Amla

My experience: I loved it!

Generally when I wash my hair, I end up losing a lot of strands. I hardly lost any hair when I used this. It worked just as well as shampoo and removed all oil and dirt from my hair leaving it squeaky clean. My hair looks healthier, thicker and shiny. It also separates hair strands giving me a lot of volume which I am loving. I am planning to skip using regular shampoo & use only this for the next 2-3 months to see if it helps stop hair fall.


All 3 freshly soaked :)
You may not like this if: You like shampoos that lather, have nice perfumed scent. It also tends to stain a little bit – my hands were a light tinge of indigo after washing – nothing seriously though – a good hand wash will remove it in the first wash. Also it may cause some hair dryness.
 
Also if you are replicating this – please check for allergies by doing a patch test.

Have any of you ever used this? How was your experience?

    1. It really works. I'm shampooing my hair with only Reetha nowadays. I have curly & extremely dry hair & I'm was worried about them. But now, I really love my hair. Reetha is magic.

  3. Tanveer this thing works and so please stick to it until your hair fall stops. Increase the amount of reetha for a lil lather but not like shampoo ofcourse. Thanks a lot for sharing :)

  4. Tanveer! I use this & it really works,but the only thing I don't like is the sting! As for the dryness what i do is , first I apply curd for 30 min before hair wash & then I wash with this reetha mix so this doesn't cause dryness!

  6. I have been using this throughout childhood and college only recently when i started working i switched to commercial shampoos. If reetha quantity is increased and if you are using large berries then each hair separates out.If amla is increased hair becomes incredibly smooth and if shikakai is increased hair will become brownish red and smooth. I don't know if u are an hair oil person but a little oil one hour before bath prevents dryness.

    1. Hy Zee Bee,

      Since you have been using this from childhood, may be you can solve my problem..been a month since I quit my commercial shampoo with ARS..in first 3 weeks, it did wonder for may hairs..I was abs loving it but suddenly, my hairs became greasy after the use..I dont know what went wrong.Changes three shops but stil no sign of improvement..is it the amla thing that is creating prob???? Please guide me

    2. hey hina, do you use whole pods of reetha ,shikakai or market powder? i personally use only whole pods , for convenience i had tried market pwders but it did not work for me. also, there is a threshold point. remember reetha is a natural saponin it does not clean scalp on same principle like soap or shampoo. Also, if you have oily hair you might have to wash every day. Many ppl abandon reetha and shikakai because it doesnt remove oil at one go. for example when i started out i remember only a couple of large reetha berries and 2 shikai pods was sufficient for my waist long unoiled hair....but then when i use south indian reetha variety i have to use a handful. so try changing reetha quantity. try using reetha alone, see if it takes care of greasiness.

      Delete
    3. Hy

      I am using whole pods of Amla reetha and shikakai, I guess, its better since I know these three things are original while they can mix anything in powders..I tried increasing reetha and reducing the amount of Amla..coz someone told me my hairs a bit oily so try not to over condition your hairs with AMLA.. I dont have waist long hairs but still i have to use 7 to 8 reethas, 3 to 4 amlas and 3 to 4 shikakai..now with less amla, my hairs are less oily but somehow there are still traces..so I have decided to oil my hairs once a week..lets see if it works..thanks for the advice!

  9. Great that this worked for you. A few years ago, I had bought all these herbs in powder form & tried using them. It was awful. My hair fall actually increased! Maybe I should have bought the items whole & powdered them myself.

  10. @Anamika: I love this too, it makes my hair so bouncy & it looks healthy too! So glad to know that it worked so well for you, I am hoping it works just as well for me :D.. Yea, I do have to plan in advance coz it takes so long to make, but I think it is totally worth it :)

    @IMW: Thanks! I will keep posting monthly updates on this goes :)

    @BeautyDiva: Hey, thanks for letting me know, I'll def use this now for a long time :)

    @Uz: Glad to know it works so well ya, but ya, one is gotta be careful to avoid the eyes :P

    Thanks for the curd tip - I'll try it out this weekend :)

    @Retnu: I am pretty sure it will after reading all the positive testimonies above :)

    @Zee Bee: hey, thanks for the info. I love the way Reetha separates my hair out - but it still feels smooth & silky! I do like oiling my hair, generally do it on the weekend - I'll do that before my next shampoo with this.

    @Ms. Gayathri: Hmmm, I haven't used this on oiled hair yet, so I can't say. But from what I read in the comments above - it seems like it does remove it.

    @CZ: I had no plans to make this - it was just all my plans for a fun weekend went bust & I was just sitting at home all weekend or else meeting unexpected guests. I have been ignoring this hair fall problem since long actually :P.. hehehhe, I wld have def made a batch for u too if u were closeby :D

  11. @Poohkie: I have seen those powders too, call me paranoid, but I could never get myself to trust them - they all looked the same - dusty brown powders & I got all suspicious. Why use powders when the actual whole herb is available so freely?

    1. I just use it in place of shampoo, so I guess you cld use it whenever your hair feels like it needs cleaning.

      English names, I know that soapnut is either Shikakai or Reetha & Amla is Indian Gooseberry.

  14. my experience was a little different from yours regarding the tangling...I used the reetha-shikakai mix and massaged my hair well...it looked as if it had tangled badly but while combing it took me less time to remove the tangles than with using any shampoo on the hair and I would suggest that you should increase reetha to 7-8 or may be 10....it will remove the oil also well...

    Replies
    1. Preeti, I followed this for about 5 months (nov - apr) and then since I got my hair chemically relaxed I decided to not do this. I found this to be prefect the way it is. I generally avoid henna as it dries out my hair. But I guess you cld add it, there is a comment above on henna.

      Delete
  20. I used this as shampoo for 5 months - from November to April. Once my hair was decently healthy, I then got my hair relaxed and started to use special shampoos & conditioners meant for relaxed hair.

    I personally loved the experience of using this - it made my hair very healthy! :D

  21. @ Tasveer:
    i have bought amla, shikakai from the market but didn't find reetha in any store so i bought nutmeg instead of reetha. Is that okay to use nutmeg instead of reetha? will it effect same as sopanuts? I live in New York and i found reetha every where but didn't find it.do u know any place where i can find and if i can use nutmeg instead of reetha?

    thnkx in advance

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Mona! I don't know if nutmeg is safe for use in hair, as I have never heard about it neither have I used it.

      Reetha gives this mixture the cleansing power it needs, which I am not sure Nutmeg wld be able to provide. I have never even been to NY so I have no idea where you wld get it in NY.

      I wld suggest you don't use nutmeg & use Shikakai & Amla in the ratio 2:1 only.

  22. @ Tanveer
    When we soak amla, reetha, and shikakai in water we have to open the reetha and shikakai and put seeds in water or just put them in water as it is. Because reetha and shikakai have seeds inside??

    1. Hi Vina!

      I hope you like using this!

      I got my hair chemically relaxed, which is straightening. I think it is the same as what you are referring to as rebonding or smoothening. If you are already suffering from hairfall, please consult a hair expert before doing any treatment as it may get worse.

      I got my hair treatment from my regular hair stylist. You can go to any reputed salon like L'oreal for the same. Before you get any treatment, get a complete consultation done on your hair health. You may need some treatment before you can relax your hair.

      And no, you cannot use this amla shampoo once you have relaxed your hair. Relaxed hair is very fragile and needs a very gentle shampoo created specifically for that hair type.

    First I must thank you for sharing tips on how to make this lovely home-made shampoo. After reading your blog, I have been trying this for the last few weeks. The first time it worked great (i did use conditioner to make hair less dry), but the second time onward it wasn't helping much. That is, till I realised that I have not heated the concoction till boiling point as you had mentioned. So re-read it again today and then I felt like thanking you as it is a great saviour of hair.

    well i was thinking for how much days i use this stock before replacing or preparing a new one...any ideas....

    Frustrating from anti-dandruff shampoos...i luckily find your remedy...and all my bet is on this shampoo...as i crossed second stage of hair loss pattern...being a male and a computer engineer you have to sacrifice your hair at around 24 age...which is now a days very common...

    so lets hope this miracle may cure my heredity problem......

    1. Grey hair is caused by excess buildup of peroxide in the hair shaft... essentially oxidative stress. I doubt it is caused by your choice of shampoo or conditioner and may be more driven by your diet and lifestyle. I am not sure using this shampoo will reverse your grey hairs, but you can try.

      For allergies, please do a patch test on your forearm before use.

  60. If our hair is oily, the glands blocked the scalp hole with dust, therefore causing scalp problem like dandruff, scalp psoriasis and the
    oily hair. Sometime it creates an uneasy situation for us. The other problem of oily hair is that sometime smell bed which is embarrassing for us.
