Many people have tried to get rid of dandruff with apple cider vinegar, but does it really work?
Apple cider vinegar is a strong acid, and people use it on their hair and scalp to balance the pH.
The idea is that this will protect them against the microbe that causes dandruff, Malassezia globosa.
But it doesn't work.
It alters the pH of the scalp, but only for a short time. The pH level of the scalp varies so frequently that any change apple cider vinegar manages to produce will be quickly reversed.
Instead, use a shampoo with an active ingredient that combats the root cause of the problem.
Head & Shoulders shampoos contain zinc pyrithione, which has been proven effective against the Malassezia globosa microbe time and again by numerous regulatory bodies around the world.
Plus, the delicious fragrances of shampoos like Apple Fresh will make your hair smell fantastic (unlike vinegar!).
