INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you take a shower everyday, you're not alone. However, most of the time, you don't need to shower that often to stay clean. Try reducing the number of showers you take until you reach an equilibrium of taking fewer showers and still staying relatively clean. Sometimes, showering every other day will do, and some people even shower once a week. These shower heads use less water per minute, so you're saving water while using them. Most of the time, you won't even be able to tell the difference between a low-flow shower head and normal shower head. It also helps not to turn the water on full-blast. You can find these at most home improvement stores. Typically, the run about the same price or a little more than a conventional shower head. Most of the time, you can install them yourself. Another option is to just try to shorten your shower as much as possible. While a hot shower feels great on your muscles, it wastes a lot of water. Try to take a shower as fast as you can. Start by timing yourself, and then try to reduce your shower by 30 seconds every day. Filling up a bathtub takes a lot more water than simply taking a quick shower. When you can, opt for a shower instead. When you need to take a bath, only fill it up about a quarter of the way. You and your partner can hop into the bath or shower together rather than using twice the water to bathe separately. Kids can also share one bath, helping to save water. Of course, if you're kids aren't comfortable bathing together, it's not a good idea to force them. You could also let them wear bathing suits for privacy.

SUMMARY: Reduce the number of showers you take. Opt for a low-flow shower head. Take shorter showers. Shower instead of taking a bath. Share a bath.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: To mix the hair protectant spray, add cup (118.5 ml) of distilled water to a spray bottle. Make sure that the bottle can hold at least 10-ounces (296 ml) so there's room to add the rest of the ingredients. Because the hair protectant spray contains essential oils, use a glass spray bottle to hold it. Essential oils can break down more quickly in a plastic container. With half of the water in the spray bottle, mix in 1 teaspoon (4.5 g) of fractionated coconut oil, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of sweet almond oil, and 2 teaspoons (10 g) of hair conditioner. Next, add 5 drops of clary sage essential oil and 5 drops of geranium essential oil. You can use whatever conditioner you usually use on your hair. With all of the other ingredients in the spray bottle, add the remaining cup (118.5 ml) of distilled water. Shake the bottle well to blend all of the ingredients. Shake the hair protectant spray before each use in case the oils have separated from the water. To use the spray, apply one spray to your hair. Use your fingers or a comb to work it through your tresses until all of your hair is coated. Style your hair with your curling iron, flat iron, or blow dryer as usual.

SUMMARY:
Pour half of the water into a spray bottle. Add all of the remaining ingredients. Top the mixture off with remaining water and shake well. Spritz your hair with the spray and work it through.
