Apple Cider Vinegar for Itchy Scalp

by Pat

French translation

I have been weaving my hair for years now.

Recently I took my weave out and noticed that my scalp had black spots and lesions, and was really itchy.

I started applying ACV directly to my scalp with a toothpick and immediately the itchy, fiery feeling stopped. The next morning that I woke up I was pleasantly surprised.

I continued doing the same for two more days and then made the ACV rinse, and washed my hair with it (no shampoo). My scalp literally feels invigorated and the lesions are almost gone.

This is just within a few days which is absolutely amazing!

Thanks so much for posting this info on your site. I've just made another tonic with marigold leaves from my garden and can hardly wait to try it! God bless...

ACV and my itches
by: Mary Chi

I like the vinegar rinse 1-2 times per week. Just 2 TBS into 2 CUPS of water after shampooing, then I let it sit for 3-5 minutes and rinse. It does calm down my scalp and gives me the SHINIEST hair ever. I highly recommend it.

AND, for those who still get itchy scalp like me – reactive, itchy scalp – I HIGHLY recommend Free and Clear shampoo and conditioner. I do not work for them, I swear.

I am an allergy patient who once had a reaction so badly to shampoos and conditioners that I was only cured by this shampoo and conditioner after 2 weeks. It is recommended by dermatologists, hypoallergenic, has no dyes, fragrance, parabens, or lots of other bad stuff. Skin Deep Cosmetics Database rates it a 1 for excellent skin safety. My hair feels clean and soft - a little dry after use sometimes - and it does not lather a lot since there is no lathering agent in it (to my knowledge), but it’s not too bad.
