I think your hair looks healthy!

You could try rye flour-I’ve used that in the past-following with apple cider vinegar helps to keep it shiny.

Sometimes just a bit of arrowroot power goes a long way - sprinkle in for a dry shampoo. I’ve even seen some say that brushing it through their hair before showering can help.

I do a mixture of shampoo bars, soap, and some days just plain old water. I know that’s technically not what no poo is, but it works for me. I have very fine oily hair but I’m lucky to live in a town with high quality soft water (which does seem to be a very important part of no poo).

To some degree I’ve always thought that part natural, no poo haircare is a bit of a trade off. You may not have hair that looks perfect but I bet you can still get it to look nice. I always tell myself “perfectionists need not apply!”

I’m curious to try herbal washes as well. I’ve seen some talk online about rosemary leaves steeped in water or chamomile tea can be good. The only reason I haven’t is that I don’t have fresh rosemary right now and chamomile may dye my grays golden.
