Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse

A pH reset that seals the cuticle and dissolves hard-water deposits. A rinse, not a cleanser.

Vegan · pH 3.0–3.5 (diluted) · Best for: After any wash, especially after clay

You need

  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 500 ml cool water

How to

  1. Pour over the scalp after washing.
  2. Leave for 1 minute, then rinse or leave in.

Good to know

  • Not a cleanser on its own — it removes no sebum or dirt.
  • Skip it on rosacea-prone or very sensitive skin, and on broken skin.
