I Followed a Real 1800s Hair Care Routine |1811 Recipes|

  • This shampoo recipe comes from the 1811 book Mirror of The Graces. "This is a cleanser and brightener of the head and hair, and should be applied in the morning.
    Beat up the whites of six eggs into a froth, and with that annoint the head close to the roots of the hair. Leave it to dry on; then wash the head and hair thoroughly with a mixture of rum and rose-water in equal quantities."
    Please turn on subtitles for the full shampoo recipe. Hair was only intended to be washed once a month which is why it was acceptable to wash one's hair with alcohol. I would not recommend doing this on a frequent basis as it may dry out your hair. However, this method is still far more agreeable to the scalp and hair than soap.
