Due to its acidic pH apple, cider, vinegar, helps tighten or close the cuticle layers of your hair. Amongst other benefits, a conditioner is supposed to have an acetic pH, so it can tighten your cuticles back up and leave your hair, shiny and more manageable, but most conditioners out there don't do a really good job at this. So after conditioner is rinsed out an apple cider, vinegar, rinse is used to ensure your cuticles are nice and flat. If you want to use apple, cider, vinegar a few times a year to revive your hair, you can get away with increasing the pH to just a three mix: one ounce of apple cider, vinegar to 7 ounces of distilled water. But if you plan on using apple cider, vinegar more often it's best to increase the pH to about a four mix, one teaspoon of apple cider, vinegar with eight ounces of distilled water.
Comments
Mutale Mwansa: And that ladies is our chemistry class for today. The pH of a hair product matters ☝
MissSunnieBunnie: Thank you for the exact measurements. (Mine was definitely too strong.)
VelvetPanther: What happens if tap water is used instead of distilled water?
AJ Easmon: Thanks for the info, very helpful. I've heard Some people rinse their conditioners with ACV is that safe/good way of doing it or too strong as you've mentioned the acidic side of conditioners (which I never knew before, no wonder there's no difference lol)
Michele Smith: How long do you keep the apple cidar vinegar in the hair before rinsing it out?
Lisa Marie: What about using ACV as a clarifying rinse before cowash to get everything off/out my hair before using my cowash? Is that a bad thing to do please?
