my friend's dad told me about apple cider vinegar and how it helps get rid of dandruff while providing smooth healthy hair. I tried it and it worked wonders o.o;;. I'm a guy and i admit i have horrible dry scalp which leads to evil dandruffs, but with this method, i noticed less flakes and my hair felt so much healthier then i thought. I got compliment from my friends that my hair looks really nice and healthy. They would ask me what wax i put in my hair, but i told them i just used apple cider vinegar.

i used about 3/4 of ACV and used cotton pads. I use to the cotton pads to absorb the ACV and rub it in the scalp. The only thing that i can't stand is the smell, but its really worth it once you wash it off. You pretty much leave it on for 15 minutes and then shampoo/conditioner.

I don't know how much i use it per week so i'll be asking my friend's dad about it.

if someone posted this then it can be closed heheh ^^

i gotta try this, my hair is like all dry and damage from all the hair dye

I've been using this for awhile, and I must say I love this. Such a cheap product that works wonder. I am pretty sure not many people can stand the ACV smell. To counter the odor, I usually put in one teaspon of almond or vanilla extract to the ACV mix. From experience, I notice that a prolonged usage of this product makes my hair more brownish, which is pretty cool, since it looks pretty natural and also it makes my hair more shiny. I am not sure it this is one of the side effects of using ACV, but I recently noticed that my hair has become really straight; thus, I no longer need to use a hair straigthener. All in all, I say more people who like to experience with natural organic products, they should give this a try. I also heard that ACV can be used to lighten acne scar. Not sure if that would works.

I heard about that a lot but I never tried it myself....a lot of old ppl talk about cider apple...but what kind do you use.....if u don't mind me asking..... But I've tried the olive oil and it doesn't make my hair less lifeless...it make my hair more smoother...from all the chemical dying. My friend tried mayonaise it works wonder for her..she said it make her hair more smoother and managable.

No no no! D:

Do not put pure ACV on your hair because it's too harsh and drying (but some said it made their hair greasy). You should mix a tablespoon with a LOT of water and then rinse it out well. You don't need to keep it on for 15 minutes because it works straight away. It balances the PH or something.

I do this. I hang around long hair and natural hair forums and sites and was told to try it there.


I do it this way:

1) shampoo
2) ACV rinse
3) conditioner (because the ACV can be drying)

[CtlunatC]

i've done this. after i shampoo i rinse my hair with water first then some ACV and then condition. and when my hair is dry. feels so clean and smooth haha..

[FLY HIGHHH]

it really does make ur hair smooth. id rather smell acv than mayo o_o eck..

[kimmyrout]

Question to those who have tried it: how do you apply the ACV when you're showering? Just dump the bottle onto your head? Lol..

EDIT I also forgot to ask - if you color your hair, would the ACV strip the dye from your hair?

[kimchibabygurl]

i do use ACV too, but i don't know if my hair got shinnier or what.

how often do you all use it anyway? my mother hates the smell, i used to put the bottle of ACV in the cupboard and she thought there was some dead lizard in the cupboard. lol.

[asianx3]

Kimchibabygurl: haha that's so funny about your mom thinking that there's a dead lizard
Anyway, yes I will definately try thisssssssssss.
I've never even had ACV. :/

Sooo .. the real way you should do it is Shampoo, ACV & then conditioner?

Personally I pour a tablespoon of ACV in a big bowl and then fill it up to the top with water. After I shampoo and rinse I pour the bowl of ACV+water over my head. Then I rinse again to get it out. Then condition.

I do this around once a week. Sometimes twice.

I don't know about stripping colour, but I heard it makes blondes darker?

ACV helps to clarify, detangle, balance hair's pH level and seals the cuticles.

I used to do the ACV treatment every week. I stopped because I was too lazy to make mix the vinegar and water before I shower, hehe. But it really did make my hair soft and healthy. As for the smell, if it's too much, you should use less.

Ahhh I see. Very helpful, thanks.

[trishaa01]

it's too harsh and drying (but some said it made their hair greasy).

actually, their scalp was probably too dry, so it made more oil to counteract that ^^;;

[Romancer.]

^ Yeah. I found it made my scalp more greasy, but my ends more dry? That's why I put both greasy and dry lol.

[missyblue]

[kimchi hana]

So you mix it in a bowl. Then when you're in the shower, just dump it is all? o___o
