How do you use your Dr. Bronner's soap? I just bought some 18-in-1 liquid soap (the tea tree kind) thinking I could use it as shampoo (I no-poo) until I read that it needs to be diluted 0.5-oz soap/2 gal water (??) This seems like crazy dilution to me.

I also thought I could use it for diapers.... anyone else use it for that? Just curious b/c it was expensive and I"d like to get my money's worth!

I used mine up by filling up a foaming soap dispenser with like a quarter soap and the rest water. I also added it to a spray bottle of vinegar and water to make a little surface cleaner. I used way more soap to water though than 0.5 oz to 2 gal. I wonder if I should cut back.:think

I use it for shampoo. I have an old 16 ounce bottle that I use. I put a squirt in there and fill it up with water the rest of the way.

You have to dilute the stuff. It's way too strong. Really you have to figure out what works best for you.

I sometimes use it full strength on stubborn spots like tub ring.

I just use a squirt in a bucket for cleaning the rest of the stuff.
