Cornstarch for cleansing?

[terica]

Okay, I don't post much because I usually find my answers just lurking, but I thought I'd throw this out there. I have a book called "Vinegar, Duct Tape, Milk Jugs & More". It's about using common household items to repair, restore, revive and replace. Anyway . . .

In the section about hair it says for a quick fix shampoo, sprinkle some cornstarch into your hands, vigorously rub it into your hair, and brush. The cornstarch will absorb the dirt and oils so that you can brush them right out.

Interesting huh?

I just got an Affirm relaxer after 11 weeks and my hair turned out great

, but I think I'll increase my biotin intake.

I think that is something white folks can benefit from not us.

I agree, I've heard people using baby powder as well!
