Today, I tried a new regimen on my hair...and so far I like the results!! I tried the Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) rinse [TUTORIAL HERE] and a honey pre-condition!
**FYI: ACV doesn't smell as bad as I thought it would, and it does NOT linger in your hair! **
Benefits of Ingredients: (accumulated from research on forums and youtube vids):
- Apple Cider Vinegar: The acid is naturally cleansing and is very similar to the natural oils in our hair, so it is very gentle.
- Honey: Helps seal in moisture, and smells nice.
- Carrot Oil: Helps fight breakage and split ends.
- Tea Tree Oil: Cleansing and contains Vitamin E.
- Coconut Oil: Moisturizer, adds sheen to hair.
Here's what I did:
Pre-Condition Products:
- 2 tbsp of Honey
- 4 tbsp of Coconut Oil
- Spray Bottle
- Shower Cap
- Towel
- I mixed the honey and the coconut oil in a small bowl. And put the towel in the dryer on High.
- I microwaved the mixed ingredients for 30 seconds (I recommend 15-20 seconds max).
- I then poured the melted contents into a spray bottle. I sprayed throughout my hair and then put on a plastic shower cap. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
- I then wrapped the, now hot, towel around my head and let it sit for another 15 minutes.
Wash/Shampoo Products:
- Apple Cider Vinger
- Applicaion Bottle
- Taliah Waajid: Black Earth Shampoo
Wash/Shampoo Application:
- Poured 3oz. of ACV and 1 oz. of water into Application. Shake.

- Shampooed with Taliah Waajid Shampoo, and rinsed.
