Apple Cider Vinegar


Unfiltered raw apple cider vinegar contains the “mother of vinegar.” The mother occurs naturally as strand-like enzymes of connected protein molecules and is a rich source of probiotics. Vinegars containing the mother contain enzymes and minerals that other vinegars probably do not contain due to overprocessing, filtration and overheating....vinegar works to restore luster by removing build up from other hair products. It leaves hair smooth and silky and is said by many to remove tangles. Depending on your hair type, you may want to use it once weekly, or as often as three times weekly. It may cause minimal dryness to hair, so some people like to condition first, then use a vinegar rinse. To make a vinegar rinse, add 1 cup vinegar to 2 cups warm water, add a a drop of essential oil if you like, and work into hair....make sure u do a final rinse, so ur not left with *vinegar smelling hair*...To clean your scalp, improve its health, and fight dandruff, rinse with a solution of ½ cup vinegar mixed with 2 cups of warm water after shampooing. You can add a few drops of sage oil, & you can also leave the rinse on for up to 30 minutes. A scalp rinse can be done daily, and should be done at least once a week....u can find (ACV) @ walmart for about $2 buckz....itz also @ ur local market, the vitamin shoppe, & health food storez....i usually do thiz about once a month or maybe more...just dependz on what type of mood im n...im sooo lazy itz ridiculouz....i have yet 2 c thiz *shine* that folkz rave about, but i shall continue 2 use thiz product & keep hope alive.
