If you prefer using natural products instead of the one that you can buy in the shops you have probably heard about the different uses of apple cider vinegar. Among the numerous uses of ACV is the method of washing your hair with it.
The following are the benefits that you will get if you practice this method:
1. ACV seals the hair cuticle.
Washing your hair with ACV will smooth flyaway ends and make your hear softer and smoother. You will have less split ends and your hair will shine more than ever.
2. ACV stimulates hair growth.
Applying ACV on your hair improves circulation and with that makes hair follicles and roots stronger. This solution removes dead skin cells and cleanses clogged pores, which are the reason for thinning hair.
3. ACV balances the pH of the hair and the scalp.
The good thing about this is that it doesn’t remove the natural oils, while most of the shampoos that can be bought for the hair have ingredients that can damage the pH level of the hair.
4. ACV is good for dry, flaky scalp.
Anytime you have dandruff with rough itchy patches on your scalp we recommend you to use ACV. It will help because it destroys bacteria and fungus which are the main reason for this condition.
You should have in mind that you will need time to switch from your pervious cleaning method to the one that includes ACV. The reason for this is that your scalp needs time to adjust to it.
Shampoos strip the natural oils from your hair and when you stop using them your hair gets oilier. But don’t allow yourself to give up out of this reason as many people do. With the time you hair will begin to balance out and till then you can wear your hair back.
The essential thing that you should do to make this method work properly is find proper apple cider vinegar. ACV is a clear, light brown with residue in the bottom of the bottle. Before using it, shake the bottle so that you get some of this residue, which is called the “mother.” This has enzymes, bacteria and minerals to strengthen your hair.
Make a solution with one part vinegar and five parts water. Soak your hair with this and leave it like that for several minutes for it to work out, after that rinse your hair thoroughly. Repeat this for several weeks and you will see that your hair will be silky smooth and not oily.
