Found this from Ginagirl while searching on Borax the other day, tried it, great results! Thanks Ginagirl!
ccing and pasting:
Tried it as a shampoo yet ? just mix saturated borax water(1 tablespoon to 1 quart warm water) 50-50 with your ordinary shampoo + a few drops of iodine=
shiny hair; it is a promise.
