my goodness!!! who knew acv had so many great uses. it's always the natural stuff that does the most good. i think i will have to go and get some acv this week and test out the theory.

The doctor told me to drink that too, that is because I have gallstones, just when it s an emergency because its devastating for the teeth.

I have sensitive enamel and that's why i've never consumed the stuff. It just didn't sound good for my teeth. That's why I try to stay away from lemons too. But I still love using acv on my face!!

I can't believe that people wouldn't put a natural remedy like ACV on their face, but will put on various chemicals and synthetic stuff without care. I've been simplifying my skincare routine lately and I started using Bragg's ACV about 6 wks ago and my skin has never looked so clear! I don't have bad skin to begin with, but the ACV really cleanses out my pores and gets rid of all the dirt on my face. I use this once a day before I go to bed - and, call me weird, but I actually LIKE the smell of the vinegar! I only use it as a toner right now though, but reading about its other uses makes me want to try it out! I have this huge bottle that I can't possibly use up as toner alone.

my scalp gets alot of bulid up- i've tried regular vinegar with okay results. does it have to be apple cider vinegar? does that work the best?

I believe it is better - I am not sure what it is about it, but I have always gotten better results with ACV. Seems to dissolve all the junk better for some reason. Maybe it is more acidic/maybe the acid is a little different.

amarock, you should put acv in your hair and then rinse it out, and shampoo, and condition. This makes hair sooooo shiny. I even read this in allure once, and it's safe for color treated hair!!!

Do you use it on your hair straight from the bottle or diluted? Also, does it leave your scalp feeling dry or itchy after?

My scalp is never dry or itchy after I use it - I use it both diluted or neat on wet hair (but I don't have very sensitive skin)- I don't do it very frequently because my hairstylist told me that it would be to harsh. I have never used it more than once or twice per month. Make sure to rinse it out well, and you should avoid any skin irritation - (ACV doesn't really dry the skin, but because it is an acid it could cause irritation so proceed carefully until you know how your skin will react to it), What ACV will do is dissolve buildup and solidified skin oils enabling the skin on your scalp to "breathe" and your natural oils to work into your hair. Hope this helps.

Wow that's crazy. That stuff is awesome for pretty much everything. I am going to try it

where can u get Apple Cider Vinegar?(sorri if this was already mentioned in the post)

seshiru · 10-07-2005, 03:08 AM

Does it have any difference on what brand you use? I am using Heinz ACV, and I am using it for 12 days already and so far so good.. I love it a lot!!! The smell is tolerable (you'll get use to it) and taste like wine or beer for me... hehehe.. reply is very much appreciated
