What’s used as a deodorizer and foot soak, a tub and shower cleaner, a mouth-watering salad-dressing ingredient and a mean meat marinade, a remedy against colds and an overall wellness drink that might lower blood-sugar levels* and now is said to even help restore the shine to your lackluster locks?
Did the title give it away? Sounds pretty far out, right? You might say almost miraculous. But that’s exactly what apple cider vinegar seems to be, or ACV as it’s casually called on social media.
The miracles of apple cider vinegar are forever being discovered. Vinegars, such as apple cider, grape and date palm, have been used as pickling agents for the last 7,000 years, and ever since Hippocrates, the ancient Greek physician, mixed ACV with honey to use as medicine for coughs and colds, it’s been a stalwart staple of home remedy cabinets everywhere. ACV’s versatility goes beyond the realm of old wives’ tales; it even has scientific backing. One of its more recent applications is to help restore a healthy, brilliant look to hair.
The magic of apple cider vinegar comes from the fermentation process. The juice of ripe apples is fermented into cider with the help of yeast, then good bacteria in the air converts the cider into acetic acid, or what we’d call vinegar. Pungent and sour, acetic acid has a low pH (between 2 and 3) and can help balance out-of-whack pH levels of scalps that experience dandruff, dullness and hair breakage.
The acidity of apple cider vinegar helps to flatten the hair cuticle, making tangles easier to comb through without damaging your strands.
Elle magazine’s website even reports that a smooth cuticle not only means shinier hair but can also help preserve hair color. Some of the other hair benefits ACV fans claim are that it cleanses the hair of oil and product buildup, relieves itch and dandruff, and is even known to help promote hair growth.
But don’t get burned. Using straight supermarket ACV from the bottle, as many users swear by, doesn’t come without its risks. Applying straight apple cider vinegar to the skin and scalp can cause chemical burns in some people,* especially those with sensitive skin and prolonged contact. ACV needs to be properly diluted. This is why using a brand like Organist Apple Cider Vinegar is your safest and best option. Not only has the vinegary smell of bottled ACV been neutralized, but only safely diluted amounts of apple cider vinegar are used in its collection, assuring gentle yet effective results that can restore life to your locks.
