Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is valued for its acidic nature, primarily due to acetic acid, which helps balance scalp pH. It’s rich in B vitamins, vitamin C, and minerals that promote hair health. ACV also has “antimicrobial properties, which can help combat scalp infections and dandruff.”
To prepare for an overnight hair treatment, mix one part ACV with two parts water to avoid irritation. Apply the solution to the scalp, ensuring even coverage. Let it sit overnight, protecting your pillow with a towel. Rinse thoroughly in the morning.
This method is believed to address issues like dandruff and improve scalp health, but results can vary. Always patch-test to check for sensitivity before full application.
