How to Make an Apple Cider Vinegar Treatment for Dandruff

Work an apple cider vinegar rinse into your hair to fight dandruff.

A gentle apple cider vinegar rinse treatment helps remove dandruff from the scalp. A homemade rinse also helps to restore the scalp's natural pH balance. Try using an apple cider vinegar treatment for dandruff once or twice per month. If you have more severe dandruff, you can treat it once or twice per week until you achieve your desired results.

Things You'll Need

• 1 cup raw apple cider vinegar
• Mixing bowl
• 1 tbsp. rosemary
• 1 tbsp. lavender
• 1 tsp. witch hazel
• Comb

Instructions

1. Pour the raw apple cider vinegar and witch hazel into a small mixing bowl, and whisk together gently. Add in the rosemary oil and lavender oil and continue whisking.

2. Rinse your scalp with warm water, then pour the mixture over the scalp and through the hair.

3. Massage the mixture into the scalp and comb some of the liquid through the hair. If you prefer, you can put on a shower comb afterward, or pile the hair in a loose bun.

4. Wait for 20 to 30 minutes, then rinse the hair thoroughly with cool water.
