Apple cider vinegar (ACV) has excellent benefits for the hair:
ACV-
Helps remove build up or hard water
Balances the pH of the hair
Balances the scalp and helps with dandruff and itching
Smooths and closes cuticle
Conditions the hair
Dilute it 1-2 TBS per 1 cup of water.
Try it before cowashing or after low poo, let soak a couple minutes, rinse, then condition and style as usual. Do NOT use baking soda with curly hair, except diluted with a tiny amount if you have severe build up once in a while to clarify because it is too abrasiveness on curly hair and dry it out. The pH is also too high and can damage the hair over time.
Used on the hair, apple cider vinegar can smooth the cuticle, making your hair appear smoother and shinier. It does this by balancing pH levels unlike commercial shampoos that strip the hair and leave it looking rough, dry or dull. It also removes buildup and can help with dandruff and an itchy scalp.
Simply use ACV as a rinse. Dilute it and dump over your head while in the shower. Give it a moment to sink in before rinsing.
One of the biggest hang-ups people have about using ACV is the smell. Yes, this is a vinegar so it does smell a little like a salad or pickles. But that smell quickly dissipates.
