Homemade Swimmers Shampoo and Eye Drops

My son (13) has started water-polo and needs to get the chemicals out of his hair and eyes. Any suggestions for homemade shampoo or eye drops?

My sons, too, play water polo. I don't recommend making any of the saline recipes you might find on the internet. I'm from Australia & things here cost heaps more than in the US. Still, a 1 litre bottle (about 1 quart US) of saline solution sold at your local optomerist (I don't know what they are called ther - the people who fill prescription eyeglasses & contact lenses) is REALLY cheap. Use a clean or sterilised eyewash cup - available from any chemist / drug-store (if you want to be ultra cautious boil it for 10 mins & seal it in a clean plastic bag), fill with the saline solution & use the saline solution to wash your son's eyes at the end of the game. Actually, plain boiled water will do as good - you just have to wash the chlorine from the eyes. Any shampoo on the market (even the cheapest) should deal with the hair. If he has a particularly sensative scalp, just make sure he goes straight to the showers after a game and washes his hair. Hope that helps, KIM
