NATURAL SHAMPOOS: SOAPWORT AND ELDER SHAMPOO

 





 

 


Soapwort (Saponaria officinalis) is rich in saponins, which produce much foam in contact with water. Soapwort has been used as an organic soap for a long time, hence the name. It helps to clean your hair without damaging its structure.

Elder ( Sambucus nigra) besides having bactericidal properties, possesses anti-baldness properties so it can help stop hair fall.
