SHOULD I RINSE MY AFRO HAIR WITH APPLE CIDER VINEGAR?

  by  Shockingly Tasty

Since I decided to have natural hair, I am constantly looking for tips and suggestions to keep my hair healthy. In the last period, where I wanted to "protect" my hair, I preferred to use my TREsemme conditioner knowing that it wasn't a 100% natural product. Now I am really looking to cleanse and rebalance the PH of my hair.

For this reason, I want to share with you the easiest tip and recipe to clarify hair: the famous apple cider vinegar rinse. The apple cider vinegar -also known as cider vinegar or ACV- is a type of vinegar made from cider and it has a medium to pale amber colour. It closes follicles and removes built-up product on your scalp and your hair. Consequentially your hair will be shinier, with fewer tangles and 100% clean.

INSTRUCTIONS

Use a mixture of 1/3 apple cider vinegar and 2/3 of water. Start applying it on the scalp, massage for a few minutes, and then apply it on the rest of your hair. For an easy application, use an empty spray or applicator bottle. Some prefer to use this rinsing method before shampooing, others after. My suggestion is to try both ways and see which way is best for your own hair. Don't worry about the smell! You're gonna slightly smell the ACV while it's still in your damp hair; once the hair is dry, the smell is gone.

Did you ever try the ACV rinse? What do you think about it? Let me know!
