Mini Setback| My experience with white vinegar

Hi hairlistas!!! This post describes a mini setback I’ve just experienced. I call it mini; you’ll see why.
So, shortly before Easter, I was grocery shopping and I spotted white vinegar while grabbing some ketchup. If you’re not new to the hair care world, you’ll probably heard (or read) about vinegar, particularly Apple cider vinegar (ACV) being used for hair (Google it). It is known to remove build-up, reduce itchy, flaky scalp and add shine and bounce to hair. You see, before I started my hair journey, I battled with dandruff and itchy scalp. When I began my hhj, the dandruff disappeared but the itchy scalp persisted, though not as bad as before. I read about ladies using ACV to get rid of itchiness and I longed to try it. Unfortunately, finding ACV is quite difficult in Naija. After reading that white vinegar is just as good, I decided it give it a whirl. So I mixed equal part vinegar with equal part water and used as a final rinse after rinsing off my DC. The itchiness reduced drastically!!! Boy was I pleased. But that’s not the end of the tale.

Wash day | Bantu knots

Hey everyone!!! How we all doing????
This post is two weeks late and I apologise for that.
Here’s how my wash day went:
- DCed on dry hair with Profectiv Mega growth Detangling Conditioner for 20 minutes with heat. This conditioner’s slip is amazing and my pre-wash detangling session went smooth.
- Co washed with VO5 Kiwi and Lime squeeze Clarifying Conditioner.
- Wrapped a T-shirt around my hair to absorb the extra water.
- Applied my leave-ins: Motions CPR leave-in conditioner and ORS Humidity control serum, detangled and air-dried.
