Yes, but will it loosen the dreds?

Wow…I'll have to try that out. I do acv shots in the morning for digestion, I never thought to use vinegar in hair.

Thanx for the suggestions. I had used ACV in the past for hair & scalp in general, but it never occurred to me to use it for dreads. Not sure why, but I thought it might hinder locking when I read your post.

I couldn't have been more wrong! I helped lock up some stubborn areas and tighten things up in general. Worked wonders!

Thanx again.

I personally like the smell of apple cider vinegar ... but maybe that's because I lost half my sense of smell years ago. Of course, it's a little unpleasant when you're pouring a large amount over your head -- the fumes are pretty overwhelming, lol. I just tried this a little while ago. It IS great for the scalp!

Okay, if you're thinking about using a plastic grocery bag, don't. Unless it's one without any colorful print... I just tried that and got a giant blue streak across my forehead, haha. It happened RIGHT AWAY, just as I was tying it to my head. It came off easily -- fortunately. Also, when I was scrambling to get another bag from under the bathroom sink and the vinegar was dripping everywhere, the cabinet handle just popped off ... it was humorous.

I'm definitely going to try this again. I'm thinking about buying a spray bottle to put the vinegar in; it'd make applying it a lot easier.

Hello All: Thanks Rootsy for positing info. Tried it for the first time today and my dreads do feel a little bit tighter...I also suggest using Bragg's Organic Apple Cider Vinegar if anybody wanted any recommendations...
