    Dear Joyce,
    Depending on the length of your hair use about 2-3 tsp of baking soda and add enough water to make a soft paste. If you have long hair you may need more.
    Vinegar and water is 1 to 3 ratio. Again depending on the length of your hair use about 1/2 cup of vinegar and 1 1/2 cup water.
    Hope this helps.
