the softest hair you've ever had

You may be wondering what this bottle of liquid on my head is. If you guessed pee, you're wrong. If you guessed Apple Juice, you're wrong too but it's still a better guess than pee. It's Apple Cider Vinegar and it's the greatest hair conditioner that you will ever try! As you may know, I'm slowly purging my daily routine of all of those unnecessary chemicals. I started using henna to color my hair, I traded my overpriced shampoo for Castile Soap and now I finally found my conditioner! Does anybody else agree with me that it's ridiculous how much money women are willing to spend on their hair to get it smooth and silky? I once saw a bottle of conditioner for $63. Sick! Do you know how many Chipotle burritos you could eat for that? Apple Cider vinegar is inexpensive and you probably have a bottle of it in your pantry right now!

Before you jump in the shower, pour some of the vinegar into the bottom of a cup. It doesn't matter how much you use, as long as there is room to add twice that amount of water. I've heard that warm tap water works best but I like to use cold water on my hair because I find that it helps me with the frizz and adds a little bit of shine. After shampooing and rinsing your hair, pour the vinegar and water over your head. I use about half of it and then I soak my ends in the rest of it. Also, don't worry, because as soon as your hair dries, the vinegar smell will go away completely! (Although I find that it goes away as soon as I rinse it out.) Leave it for a few minutes before rinsing. Your hair will instantly feel smoother and softer. Who could have thought that smooth and silky hair was only a couple of tablespoons of vinegar away?
