Try dehydrating it or just add glycerol.

Try a product called Certain Dry. You can get it at a local drug store.

You can help yourself by avoiding the use of corrosive shampoos with SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE http://curezone.com/blogs/m.asp?f=235&i=17\nConsider making your own or finding shampoos that do not contain this corrosive detergent in them,\nhttp://curezone.com/blogs/f.asp?f=235\n\nRinse out your hair with apple cider vinegar you get from a store and take one tablespoon of raw apple cider vinegar with a tablespoon of cinnamon for flushing your thyroid, liver, kidneys, and galbladder.\nhttp://curezone.com/blogs/f.asp?f=179&p=1

Everything is in the soap you are using.  Don't go to the drugstore.  Find an artisanal soap store near you.  You will never regret wht you will buy....\n\nGood luck

Mayo!!!!!!!!  It really works.  Put it in your hair and let it sit there for a while then rinse it out.

Depends on the type (and quality) of car wash you wish to make, whether it is a hand wash or "touchless", whether it contains wax or not and how much you want to spend.\n\nFor a simple wash take :\n\nWater                                                                            55%\nSLES 70% (sodium lauryl ethoxy sulphate 70%)               15%\nCDE (Cocodiethanolamine)                                              15%\nCocobetaine 45%                                                            10%\nEDTA                                                                               2%\nSTPP                                                                               3%\nPreservative, colour, pH adjust to suit\n\nYou may need to play with the percentages a little to thicken the product - as a word of advice, for good quality carwashes don't use salt to thicken the anionics (as it promotes rust).

Here are lists of acids.  Most are not practical because they are too weak, too strong, react with the textile, or the biggest reason, they cost too much.  \n\nGive us the criteria for your needed acid and why the acids currently used will not work in your situation.  Your question is not clear.\n\nhttp://www.zirchrom.com/organic.htm\n\nhttp://www.cem.msu.edu/~reusch/VirtualText/acidity2.htm

Usually shampoo is developed for hair, and soap for your body. Try finding a shampoo for your hair, for example, if it is curly, find a curl enhancing shampoo. It will probably be better than using soap.

It really doesn't matter what shampoo you use, it matters what you do after you're done shampooing it.  Just blowdry it with a round brush and apply some shine gel.  You may want to watch someone do it at the salon before giving it a shot yourself--it takes practice and a good blowdryer (or straightening iron).

try a medicated shampoo

The 1 oz. of mixed herbs in the following recipe is non-specified because I have no idea what your hair is like - oily/dry, dark/light, etc. For more specific herbs, email me.\n\nGeneral Shampoo Recipe:\nMakes 8 oz.\n\nPut 1 oz or more of mixed herbs in a nonmetal or enamel pot and add 10 ozs. or a bit more of spring water - or tap water will do. \nBring gently to a boil, lower heat, and gently simmer for 5-10 mins.\nTurn off heat & let infuse for 5-10 minutes longer. Strain off the liquid into another pot that contains 1 oz. of good quality Olive oil castile soap. Stir until the soap melts and add 1 or 2 drops of your favorite essential oil. \n\nNow bottle your genuine herbal shampoo, use sparingly and it will last 1 person from 3-8 weeks.\n\nI have many more recipes at my website.\n\nA good shampoo should contain:\na medicinal or cleansing herb\nan emollient\nan herb for color\nan herb for conditioning\nscent, if you like
