I use an old ketchup bottle to mix 2 TBS soda to 1 cup water and spray that. on my hair after wetting. I massage it in and follow with a cider vinegar rinse (and NO my hair does NOT smell like vinegar :p) I have been using baking soda to wash my hair for the last year and it has never been healthier!

I have been doing this for a couple of years now. I try to re-purpose as much as possible and I use them for baking items as well. http://koreamom.blogspot.com/2008/03/repurposing-grated-cheese-containers.html It is nice to put small amounts of sugar, corn starch etc and not have to drag out the big containers when you only need a little of something!

You can also freshen kids' stuffed animals by tossing them in a pillowcase with baking soda and shaking them around for awhile. Gets rid of those un-fresh smells from toys that can't be cleaned otherwise. Here is a msg that I got from someone else about using baking soda:
