DIY Horse Shampoo (For Greys)

Hello! I'm going to try and teach you how to make your own horse shampoo!
(This is just a suggestion and I'm sure everyone has their own concoction! Also, you want to patch test this on your horse to make sure that they aren't allergic to any of the contents.)

What you will need:
  • Blue washing up liquid (Sainsbury's) (If you don't have a grey just use a standard clear washing up liquid)
  • Human shampoo (Herbal essences)
  • Human 2 in 1 shampoo/conditioner (Tresemme)
  • An empty bottle (I used an old radox showel gel bottle)
Obviously, you do not need to use these exact brands but these are the ones which I find good.


Now this can get a little messy so I suggest putting a towel down or doing it in a bath. 

1. Firstly, take the empty bottle and take the cap off.
2. Add around 180mls of the washing up liquid.
3. Then add 50mls of the shampoo.
4. Finally, add 40mls of 2 in 1 shampoo/conditioner.
5. Optional - I added more washing up liquid to fill the bottle (around 40mls). 
6. Then you need to shake! And shake! And shake! (Like seriously!) If you have a wide necked bottle I would suggest whisking it with a spoon or fork.

Now, lastly, you may want to label your bottle of new shampoo. And then you are good to go!
