There’s nothing like soaking your fingers in a bowl of vinegar (white vinegar if possible) for about five minutes. Two-in-one, you soften the cuticles and this will facilitate the work before applying your varnish. Guaranteed result!
Say goodbye to dandruff
White vinegar is often recommended to make hair shine after your usual shampoo. On the other hand, apple cider vinegar can really provide lasting relief if you suffer from itching and dandruff . Two solutions are available to you: you can massage your scalp with cider vinegar and let it sit for a few minutes before shampooing.
Another tip, mix a quarter cup of apple cider vinegar and a quarter cup of water in a bottle with a spray nozzle. Water your scalp then let your hair rest in a towel between fifteen minutes and an hour and do your usual shampoo. Apple cider vinegar is known for its anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Its acidity will change and regulate the pH of your scalp.
An after-shave treatment
We do not forget the gentlemen because, with their daily care, and in particular shaving, they should also resort to vinegar! If your skin is tight or a little irritated, mix a little cider vinegar and jojoba oil , known for its calming and softening properties. For a slightly more pleasant smell, add a few drops of essential oil of cedar, mint or lavender. The latter is ideal for soothing, disinfecting the skin and healing small cuts.

It stings and it heats, it pulls and itches… Don’t panic! Your bottle of apple cider vinegar is not far away.
