- Pour, rinse, and barely repeat with vinegar
Rinsing your hair with vinegar
(specifically Apple Cider Vinegar or white vinegar) may sound like a dreadful
idea, but it can be quite an effective way to treat dandruff because it
actually addresses the root of the problem (pun very much intended).
Put simply,
dandruff is the result of skins cells maturing and dying too fast, building up,
and causing irritation. Vinegar will get rid of the unwanted skin that would
flake off into dandruff, and it won’t clog up your pores or cause more. An
overgrowth of fungus can also cause dandruff, and vinegar acts like a
fungicide. Using it is straightforward, simple, and is probably easier on
your hair than some shampoos out there. Just don’t wash with it before a
business meeting in a stuffy room-the biggest downfall is that your hair will
smell like vinegar until you shower again (but it does go away.)- 1/2 cup warm water
- 1/2 cup ACV or white vinegar
- A cup
Directions
Mix together the warm water and
vinegar in a cup. The total amount may be varied to be more or less depending
on how much hair you have. Pour the mixture over your hair, scrub it around
gently for several minutes, and then rinse it thoroughly with water (only
water!) Wait about 8-12 hours before taking a normal shower. Repeat once every
week or two weeks, depending on how often you feel you need it.
