Abbienikol (I'm probably spelling that wrong, sorry!) was curious as to how my hair looks washing with baking soda so I thought I'd make a thread.
I just took these pictures. I haven't washed my hair today.
I already had very healthy normal hair because I don't blow dry or straighten or use gels or anything and have never washed my hair every day but I still saw an improvement once I switched. My hair is shinier... I didn't know my hair could be shiny, but it kinda is now!
I use 2tbsp on baking soda in 1 cup of water and then I use 2tbsp on apple cider vinegar in 1 cup of water. Some people use different amounts. This works for meI let the baking soda sit in my hair while I shave and then let the acv sit in my hair while I wash my face (My body gets washed last because I use a sugar scrub that I don't want in my hair.) I rub both in very well before letting it sit and while rinsing out. I rinse out VERY well. You need to or you smell like vinegar! So long as you rinse well, there should be no vinegar smell.
I didn't have the typical transition period. No greasiness or anything. I am very glad I decided to do this! It is easy, CHEAP, and good for my health and the earth's. The crap is shampoo is so icky!
