I would use it on my blonde hair, because of all the gorgeous yellow that falls out of it when I handle it. <br /><br />You could simply used the tea/infusion or use a dandelion vinegar rinse. You'd have to wait 4-6 weeks for the vinegar to steep though and then I'd only use it occasionally to strip build up.<br /><br />Let me know if you try it! I may try it this summer to see if it adds some gold to my hair.Ruehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09521209734809361226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1981681052445415624.post-20181404906790848372012-05-15T14:10:22.203-07:002012-05-15T14:10:22.203-07:00Love the idea of dandelion syrup and it's many...Love the idea of dandelion syrup and it's many uses!

I use the syrup on pancakes & waffles, on ice cream & as a sweetener for tea & coffee (I usually use honey in my coffee, so this isn't a stretch.)<br /><br />I am also going to use it to make summer sodas. Some syrup, citrus slices & soda water should make a nice refreshing drink.<br /><br />And yes - finding pesticide- free dandelions is the trick!Ruehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09521209734809361226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1981681052445415624.post-24013125845210839322012-05-09T08:56:04.363-07:002012-05-09T08:56:04.363-07:00Living in the city, the challenge is to find clean...Living in the city, the challenge is to find clean dandylions, which have not been contaminated by pollution or pesticides.

Living in the florida, I don't see near as many dandelions so I'll have to find a field and really hunt for them but by the looks of the syrup it'll be worth it! Before we moved down here, I gathered every single dandelion i could find around my area lol I still have jars of roots, petals and leaves. lolTamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06054135228806005241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1981681052445415624.post-68033618358067391492012-05-09T05:43:19.927-07:002012-05-09T05:43:19.927-07:00And the best thing is -- there's always a mill...And the best thing is -- there's always a million of them and they're free!Debra She Who Seekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01845703092794695023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1981681052445415624.post-58877390774005324772012-05-08T22:07:30.111-07:002012-05-08T22:07:30.111-07:00Yum.Yum.Magaly Guerrerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18295455026184103230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1981681052445415624.post-41561347378210621942012-05-08T21:31:32.986-07:002012-05-08T21:31:32.986-07:00I'm actually still waiting for them to appear....I'm actually still waiting for them to appear....
