Our plant-based granules and powders provide you with the foundation to create your own personalized shampoo, conditioner, and styler, tailored to your specific hair needs. With a few simple steps, you'll be able to create your own products in the comfort of your home by adding the most important ingredient. Water. Here's how to get started:

 

Shampoo

1. In a jar, mix packet of salonsolids shampoo granules with 9 oz of hot water. Alternatively, your choice of tea. Stir until the granules have fully dissolved.

2. Pour the mixture into a reusable bottle or you can store granules in jar.

3. To use, wet hair thoroughly, then apply the shampoo to your scalp, add a bit more water to activate lather and massage in circular motions where cleansing is needed. Approximately 1/2 tsp emulsified with water in hands per use when mixing directly in hands. Adding more water to head in shower will help to distribute natural lather.

4. Optional: Use scalp massager. Rinse with warm water. Alternatively, you can make a clarifying shampoo and or increase lather by adding sodium bicarbonate to granules and make creamy paste directly in your hand. 

Conditioner

1. In a jar, mix packet of salonsolids conditioner granules with 9 oz of hot water. Alternatively, your choice of tea. Stir until the granules have fully dissolved.

2. Add 1-3 tsp of your preferred oil (such as olive for dry/coarse hair, broccoli seed for fine hair, or coconut oil for porous hair). Stir to combine.

3. Pour the mixture into a reusable bottle or you can store granules in jar.

4. To use, before shampooing, apply the conditioner to the length of your hair, avoiding the roots. Will act as a protector to more porous or dry ends. Leave on for 2-3 minutes, then rinse with cool water. Alternatively, conditioner can be used as co-wash, after shampooing, or as a leave-in. Approximately 1/2 tsp emulsified with water in hands per use when mixing directly in hands. 

Styler

1. In a jar, mix packet of salonsolids styler granules with 9 oz of hot water. Alternatively, your choice of tea. Stir until the granules have fully dissolved.
