Baking soda shampoo
Mix 1 part of baking soda and 3 parts of water in a small squeeze bottle. You can adjust the dosing depending on your hair length, for instance, in case of shoulder length hair, mix 2 to 3 tablespoons of baking soda and 3 times that amount of water.
Apply the shampoo on wet or dry hair, starting at the roots and working your way down to the ends. Leave it on for 1-3 minutes and rinse. It may be weird washing the hair without shampoo foam at the beginning but you’ll get used to it. After you see the final results you’ll wish you’d started this sooner. Use warm water to rinse it all off your hair.
Afterwards rinse your hair with ACV. Mix 1 part of ACV with 4 parts of water and if you don’t like the smell you can add a few drops of your favorite essential oil. You can make this rinse beforehand and keep it in a squeeze bottle it the bathroom. Tilt your head backwards and make sure you don’t get any of the vinegar in your eyes
Then, tilt the head back and close your eyes, to avoid the possibility of getting some of the vinegar mixture into your eyes. Apply the ACV rinse on your entire hair length and that’s it.
After a few treatments you’ll see how healthy, shiny and strong your hair looks!
