Apple Cider Vinegar For Hair Loss

Make a hair rinse by mixing apple cider vinegar and water in a one-to-one ratio. If you have an empty 16 oz plastic bottle, for instance, use it to store a mixture of one cup of ACV and one cup of water. Then your vinegar rinse will always be handy and ready to use when you are in the shower.

Apply the ACV rinse to your scalp after shampooing. Rub it in gently, giving your scalp a good massage while you are it. Leave it on for at least five minutes. Rinse with water. Alternately, you can leave it in your hair for extra conditioning.

The Right Apple Cider Vinegar For Hair Loss
Before you run out to the store to grab a bottle of the wonder vinegar not all apple cider vinegar is created equally. To reap its many benefits you have to get unfiltered, unpasteurized, organic apple cider vinegar with what is called the “mother.” The mother is a stringy substance formed during the last stage of fermentation, and is the part with the most healing properties. This vinegar is cloudy and should be shaken before you use it to get all the good bits that settle at the bottom. The most commonly available organic ACV is Bragg’s brand. It used to be you had to order it online or get it at a natural foods store. But I have found the economical gallon jugs of the apple cider vinegar in vitamin stores and quart size bottles at the regular supermarket.

Remember, because hair grows about half an inch a month, more or less, it will take two months or so to really see any results.
