How to Make Lemon Juice Shampoo

Things You'll Need: 

* 1/4 cup liquid vegetable-based soap 
* 2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 
* 1/4 cup water 
* 1 lemon 
* Grater 
* Sauce pan 
* Spoon 
* Strainer 
* Plastic shampoo bottle 
* Mixing bowl 


Step 1 

Grate the outside of the lemon's skin until you have a teaspoon of the yellow part of the rind. This is called lemon zest. 

Step 2 
Heat the soap, lemon juice, lemon zest and water in the sauce pan for two minutes. Do not allow the mixture to hiss or boil. Use medium heat. 
 
Step 3 
Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. This will probably take about 10 minutes. 

Step 4 
Strain out the lemon zest. You can catch the shampoo in the mixing bowl. 

Step 5 
Store your homemade lemon shampoo in the plastic shampoo bottle. You can use this shampoo every day. Rinse thoroughly after every use.
