Title: Sunshine Shampoo
Categories: Shampoo *
Yield: 4 Ounces

1/4	c	Basic Shampoo or liquid soap
2	tb	Fresh lemon juice
1/4	c	Water
1/2	ts	Dried citrus peel or 1 tb fresh citrus zest

This recipe contains fresh lemon juice, which can have a mild bleaching effect on the hair. If you have light-colored hair, it is the perfect shampoo to use during the summer months when your hair is highlighted by the sun. This recipe is also good for oily hair.

Mix together all ingredients. Heat the mixture gently. Do not boil. Cool the mixture completely and strain out the citrus zest. Pour the citrus shampoo into a clean bottle with a tight-fitting lid. Shampoo as you normally would and rinse well with cool water.
