Hey love, Chemist here and I wanted to give some friendly insight on your struggle to find the perfect balance of ACV to water ratio. You actually hit the nail on the head with the whole pH of your shower discussion and that's the reason why all of the ratios were different-everybody's water will have a different pH. So, considering that there's a universal, nominal pH we want the ACV rinse to be, we would have to dilute our ACV with water to be that pH (and everybody's ratios would be different since our taps give us different pHs of water). On the off chance you wanted an easy scientific way to do this at home, you can get some pH test trips and start with a small ratio of water to ACV and test the pH little by little, adding more water every time to make the pH go up. Obviously, this would only need to be done once and you would need to keep track of how much water to ACV you're making for future reference. I just found you and I'm in love! I've recently decided to get my hair under control once and for all! I greatly appreciate all of your hard work, dedication, and honesty!
@@athanasiatzr385 Scientist? There's a huge difference between someone who just does some reading and writes video essays vs. a SCIENTIST. Being a research oriented person is not the same as a scientist.
Well probably your hair is dry and your sculpt oily/greasy. This always gets mixed up. Your hair type doesn’t have to be the same as your sculpt type but both play a big role when it comes to hair care. You should look into it 👀
When she used the silk cap and woke up like that I kinda got emotional. I’ve been watching this process from the start and I’m getting so excited for your progress
To jump straight to the good stuff and why you clicked - content starts at 4:10 Not at all to discourage anyone! She got a great sponsor for the first part of the video that she deserves credit for. But, if you’re short on time, hope that helps!
silk is made from silk bugs, they are being boiled alive so that humans can take the silk strings out of their bodies :( please take that in consideration before you buy silk products
@@earthlingel.2238 A good replacement is a satin weaved fabric. The easiest satin to get hold of is polyester, it works almost as good as silk and def much better than regular cotton :)
Isabella Demarko, girl you changed my life! My hair struggle has been so similar to yours. I felt like I was doing all the "right" things: never using heat, washing less frequently, rarely using a hair brush and finger combing instead, using a microfiber wrap instead of a bath towel to dry it... My hair just kept getting more and more dry, frizzy, and tangley. And then I saw this video, and then all the pieces came together... My tap water reeks of chlorine! And there are definitely hard minerals in it based on the build-up on my shower head. I just did an ACV rinse and brought jars of filtered water into the shower to rinse between shampoo and conditioner and everything... And my hair feels like my old hair again! It's soft and manageable, just like that. So thankful to you!!!
Satin bonnets and scarves have been the key to black girls hair for ages 😂 honestly I think a lot of our natural hair tips would do wonders on your hair 🤷🏾♀️
Acv actually removes remains of chlorine from your hair after swimming pools as the chlorine still remains in your hair even after shampooing it so I recommend using the acv rinse after swimming
As someone on swim team I need to try this! I use oils and serums and wet m6 hair before swimming and wear a swim cap, but you can never be too careful.
Ive been using ACV on my hair for years now. Everytime I feel like my hair needs softness or my scalp starts to itch I use it as a rinse. Love it and I mostly use it instead of conditioner. A great idea is also putting in different herbs like rosemary, sage (caureful makes hair little darker) or calendula for extra nutrition. Just fill a mason jar with the herbs/flowers and pour in the ACV. Close the jar and let it soak at least 1 week. I have mine in my cupboard for a year already and it still works awesome! Hove you all have a great day!
@@user-kg7bo1go7x Oh and I dip my hair ends in first and let it sit for a few seconds and then rinse over my head and massage it into my scalp. It really helps with itchy skin and dandruff.
I've been doing ACV rinses for about half a year now. I use it whenever i feel like it, but i learned right away to use filtered water. My hair grows faster in the fall/winter but I've noticed it's been growing a lot faster since using ACVs. You can also add herbs to your rinses, let them sit for a week and you have an even better rinse. Holistic Habits discusses this in her video about it. In terms of the amount of acv i use, i can just eyeball it. My scalp gets oily rather quickly while my ends are on the dry side.. However. During my time on the long hair community forums someone told me to try kombucha in place of the acv (or with it) It has a slightly higher pH level i think? So it may be better for certain hair types. Just something to think about trying i suppose! It's pretty annoying tho how none of the articles tell you that filtered/distilled water is the best? they don't mention it at all.. like lol?
Do you shampoo, condition and then pour the ACV on? Also do you rinse it out after you've poured it on, or leave it in like she mentioned in the video? Thankss!
@@pandaabearr I shampoo and condition it yes. However I still use it even if I dint shampoo my roots and it's still works really well. Always always always let it stay in your hair. Air dry or use a fan to help it dry. Then I apply some hair oils. I made my oil which includes seabuckthorn oil, castor oil and a carrier oil of olive or coconut. Acvs are best used when you've done an oil treatment on dirty hair. Always pour it over cold, use filtered
@@emotionallyunstable619 no, it just depends on what you use. My hair likes oils so it enhances my results, it's a matter of what your hair takes to and can withstand. Its basically like feeding your hair at the end of the day lol
I have to say you changed my life... literally. I rinsed my hair yesterday the way you told in your video. The first time in about 2 years I love my hair without styling it. I have literally the same hair structure as you. And the difference is breathtaking. THANK YOU SO MUCH 💙
I just stumbled across one of her hair videos today and found myself binge watching the rest...she really had done her research, all the videos are very educational and I also found them to be very entertaining...new subscriber today 😌
I honestly have no idea why I'm watching this since I've never given two hoots about what my hair looks like beyond like "is it a mess" and "is it clean", but this is just... so fascinating. As a scientist myself I have to say I am very impressed with this (maybe it's a scientist thing? It's an interesting question I've never considered investigating). Your background research makes a genuine effort to be neutral and cover multiple sources, you acknowledge the lack of consensus in the area and include relevant background information about hair type and water type and pH. Not to mention the end where you acknowledge your sources of error and how they influence your results... girl if I could get my second year bio students to approach their lab reports with this level of critical thinking! Assuming you have no scientific background (I could be wrong tbh, I don't know you), the research, proposal, experimental design, and presentation of results are really well done! Just wanted to let you know. Looking forward to further videos! I really enjoy your style of making them.
You can tell there was SO much effort put into this, you are the freaking BEST and fans like me can see how much passion you put into your videos. Pleeeeasssseee keep them coming!!!!! Love ya !!!💙💙💙
I’ve been using the ACV rinse treatment for a year or so now for whenever I feel like my oily hair needs a good “reset” and omg I’m so happy I found out about it. My hair always feels so nice after I do it.
Isabella! I have never said this to anyone or any platform ever. I love you and it’s love at first sight or sorry, love at first watch. Now, you’d be mine for keeps. Well done on your researches and excellent delivery. Salut!
@@malakkhaled5329 It is still working really well, I use shampoo once a month (more or less) and the frizz in my hair has been amazingly reduced, you have to be careful with which kind of shampoo you wash your hair, but I believe it will work anyway. Another thing I've been trying out this last few weeks are natural hair masks, there are a lot of examples here in UA-cam and my hair is even better thanks to them
I have extremely hard water in my city. I always had problems with scalp itching and seborrheic scalp. It was pretty bad, and still when I went to places with soft water the itch wouldnt come back. When I picked up on this I started ACVing my hair (and rinsing it) and the itch and seborrhea got under control! Finally I can live with my hair and scalp, I tried so many ways and shampoos but the problem was in water and not shampoos and ACV saved me definitely. Even if u rinse the acv rinse it works, (I leave it for a few mins while shaving/and I put conditioner on my ends while having acv on my scalp.. Really works wonders.
This totally makes sense considering when my hair stated getting damaged, frizzy and brittle, and it was after we moved to a place with veeery hard water. Thank you very much for sharing your research, I will try this since I have a Brita and can buy ACV.
I love that you to so many articles. I wonder, if the primary benefit is the pH, why is it recommended that ACV with the mother is important. I feel like it would still work with regular vinegar, with the proper ratio to get the desired pH.
Huge news for saving money and reducing waste!!You can use charcoal sticks to filter your water. It’s one time buy. Water filters have charcoal sticks inside the plastic component but instead of throwing it out you can boil the charcoal stick and use it over and over again.
I know this is last minute, but I recently started having extremely similar hair issues to yours and I started using plain rose water in a spray bottle after washing my hair and has significantly decreased my frizz and has increased my shine! Also, rose water’s PH is from 4-4.5. Hope this helps :).
I have hair issues *very* similar to yours, so decided to give this ago - who cares about smelling like a chippy during lockdown? And oh my gosh, my hair is so soft and so shiny, I can't stop stroking it! I invested in a Brita filter and pretty much followed exactly what you did - 1:8 ratio of ACV to filtered water, rinsed with filtered water first, added some lavender oil too, clipped my hair up afterwards. Going to try doing it once a week for a while to see what happens. Thank you so much for your very thorough videos :)
i find it astonishing that you put so much effort into making these videos. you could make them so much more simple but we can tell your editing and research explanations make the biggest difference. its so so so thoughtful of you to make all this extra effort to put out such great content. i see you, girl! thank you so much for your commitment! 🖤
i have naturaly straight hair but my best friend is struggling with extreme frizzy and damaged hair...this really helped me benefit her with her journey thank you so much!!!❤️
Wow! I've spent so many years hating my brittle and dry frizzy hair (literally feels like hay sometimes) and have tried every oil imaginable, including coconut. I could have sworn it made my hair worse, and thought I must be crazy considering what everyone else was saying, so kept on trying it anyway! Then I stumbled upon your other video about cracking the frizzy hair mystery, and it just made so so much sense compared to everything else I've ever heard. So I tried your apple cider rinse as shown in the video, and my goodness, I have never woken up with such soft hair! It's still far from perfect (I have quite a lot of curly hair, but each strand is really thin), but this is the most amazing result I've ever had. Thank you so much for your video. I will keep trying this! ❤❤
I’m just super amused on how much effort you put into your videos , from the images to the funny videos and the huge amount of research. I truly appreciate all of this and I enjoyed every second its not boring at all like most videos about hair . Love love love your channel and I wish you all the best
@Isabella Demarko PLEASE test out the rice water thing. I am testing it out, but your ACV video was so danggggggg helpful (Seriously my hair looks FRICKING BOMB) I Have heard only good things about this so it would be AWESOME if you did a video on this. I have the same dreams as you concerning hair and I am trying to take care of it better so your channel is PERFECT for me right now. Love you and thank you!
No matter what products I use during the shampooing or conditioning, I always notice that the after care matters the most for me. Using oil for my ends as leave-in, wrapping my hair in a t-shirt instead of a towel... andddd letting my hair air dry like 80% and then wrapping it with same style as you do. That is what gives me the non-frizzy look.
@Isabella Demarko I just wanted to let you know I have a lot of respect for you hon. I am a teenager and have not had long hair since I was 12. I had the exact same dreams as you and had grown it out to my waist, (My vision was rapunzel hair.) but I had a ton of breakage, so much that it was pointed at the end, almost like the letter V. My hair would come out so much and it was super obnoxious. My hair was not thick or shiny and I didn't know how to style it. It had some strange waves and was wispy. It took an hour to blow dry, so I never did. I had no self-awareness, however, and did not care how it looked, I only cared about convenience. Whenever I did my hair in the morning, my only thought was "How can I put my hair up so it doesn't get caught in my backpack straps?" I never cut my hair unless my mom made me and it took a huge argument to get me to do it. It only happened about once every 6 months. I had split ends and breakage constantly. One night in January of 2018, I was reading and I had the spontaneous thought to cut my hair. My mom booked me an appointment with a lady from my church who had done an amazing job on other girl's hair. I took a picture right before I cut it, and the longest part of it (The point of the V) barely touched my butt. I got about 15 inches cut off, and after that, it was shiny and smooth. It ended right at my shoulders and I was very pleased with it. I still am. It is very sleek and shiny and high quality. I hardly ever have split ends. About a month ago, I saw your hir story video. It made me want to grow my hair out again, but this time, I would take care of it. I started my brand new hair journey on October 7th. I got my hair cut that day and I measured my hair (I start at about my sideburns) and it was at 7.25 inches. I measured it on November 7th, after ACV rinses, using lower heat (I am not skilled enough to do good no heat hairstyles), washing my hair upside down, and using the Inversion Method. My hair had grown 3/4 of an inch, which is huge for me. HUGE. it took me 4 YEARS to get to waist length before. 4 YEARS. Now, I have 3/4 of an inch in a month. I have been using your tips and other tips that I have done heavy research on. Your ACV video, in particular, was very helpful. My hair is now mega sleek and shiny and I LOVE IT. Anyway, I wanted to tell you my personal hair story, and I admire you for the passion you have for your hair. I have that passion as well and I respect you for it. Love ya!
how would we do it, those methods require it to be in a solution and how could we dissolve hair??? I want to know too! but for now, i'm using my ph meter to take a look at my water, and all hair products definitely!
I am amazed. I have had such a similar journey to this girl. My hair type is also similarly. For me the curly hair method ruined it. Buildup does not do good to semi wavy, thin hair. It got super crunchy Currently I'm in such a better place. Here's what I did: 1) Washing with inversion method 2) Washing with a 5.5 shampoo bar. If you can't find it, use baby dove soap at least it's pH neutral (7) which is better than most shampoos 3) A silicone free conditioner. 4) And then a rinse with ACV rinse. Except I add tea tree oil instead of lavender oil. I am doing 1 cup water + 1 TSP ACV, + 4 drops tea tree. I use this after every wash on my scalp. 5) On my ends I do the same mix but i also add 6 drops of almond oil because I want my ends to be a bit more oiled than my scalp. 6) Once in 10 days I apply a scalp exfoliating shampoo that has salicylic acid and piroctone (I have struggles with itchy, oily scalp). But I don't apply it to my lengths, just roots with a bowl and brush. Tea tree oil helps with sebbhoreac dermatitis, and demodex infestation which I suspect I had. I also did a lot of research like her and I'm actually a medical doctor too
Back when I was anti-silicone and using only natural ingredients on my hair, I would use half ACV and half water as a leave in conditioner after I washed my hair. The reason I didn't use silicone products is because ACV can remove build up so it would dry out my hair and remove the siliconey conditioner. I haven't used ACV in my hair care in years tho and I definitely want to bring it back. As for it removing hair dye, I totally think it does. Whenever I would use ACV my hair would definitely fade and change the color of the water. I even use the "no poo" method (baking soda as shampoo, ACV as conditioner) to remove hair dye when I want to change my color! Works like a charm.
Hey so 1) if you're so curious about PH thingy, i would recommend you to go to the drug store and buy ph strips for urine and saliva testing, you can measure your scincare products with it as well. 2) I preferably sleep with french braid or just braid, sometimes i add a little protection with ribbon. It's not as expensive as pure-silk-cap for girls who can't allow expensive purchases, but it also protects hair wery well, i usually don't need a hairbrush after braid overnight and also my hair is curlier in a pretty way.
I appreciate the efforts you're making with your hair series. I still think you can try and give going curly a try since you have waves, but I'm also happy to see that you are implementing tips that curly girls swear by! I do an ACV rinse and use bonnets
I did a rosemary rinse with acv today for the first time, and daaaang guurl, my hear never looked that shiny and felt that smooth before! You should definitely give it a try! I had the "recipe" from holistichabits channel, you just bring water to a boil on a stove and add some fresh rosemary (dried rosemary or rosemary oil/essence will surely do it as well) and let it simmer for around 20-30 minutes. Let the water-rosemary-mixture cool down, put a littlebit of acv in it and dump it over your hair after shampooing it just like a normal acv rinse! Ofc you can dilute the mixture with water as well to save some for future hairwashes. Hope you see my comment and that I can help you!
In some pet stores they sell ph level testers (because some fish need a certain ph level om the water) so maybe you can use that to try the ph on your shower water :)
I been using a silk hair cap for a year now and I have straight hair, it’s amazing and helps with frizz, split ends, and traps in moisture as well as keeping it smooth
I just want to say that I have watched SOOOO many hair care videos and so many people half-explain things leaving me overwhelmed and confused. This video was so beautifully made with the all of the research and the visuals and just the honesty I wanna cry euhfadkjdkvbdsv
Very well done video!!! You explain things in such a way that they become easy to understand and I saw a huge difference in the quality of your hair after the rinse! I’m going to try it.
SO HAPPY I FOUND THIS. Everybody keeps commenting I have dry hair... but I don't. It's just frizzy because I live in the tropics. (I don't have split ends since I always get a trim). I was about to buy a one-step hairdryer to tame the frizziness... but I'm glad to have seen this before ordering online. I'm gonna buy a silk cap instead and do this rinse. Sending my love to you from the Philippines.
Damn gurl this is one wholesome video. I never thought of a hair care this massive. I MEAN- THIS IS AN EYE-OPENER FOR ME!! I didnt know it was this complicated but i really really appreciate how much u care about hair and sharing ur knowledge to other people ♥️ i wanna try this one
I LOVED your video bc you did exactly what I did, RESEARCHING. This is the only way to know the correct way of doing things, the miths and facts, so thank you for sharing this with us !!
Thank you for sharing! I personal feel like using less products is the key to healthy hair and a healthy body in general. Also using self made products is so good not only for the ingredients but also the process of making something good for you is healing as well. It is like cooking a healthy, delicious meal. Big love - from a tiny tiny youtuber
Big shout to all my Ebony Queen's whom been wearing silk bonnet, protective styling and curly gal-method since the began of time.P.S. You're welcome my Ivory Sista's
Azbibby, it does need to be said that if we white girls would have taken the advice of our black sisters decades ago, we would have much nicer hair! Instead, we believed advertisements by companies wanting to sell us stuff. I really believe that racism and the false belief that there is nothing similar in our slightly different hair types blocks white girls from the best advice out there.
Yeah, pretty much all the best hair care videos on youtube Ive seen are from black women, its clear that they have tons of knowledge (lots of which seems to be common knowledge within black community)
Well,, Miss D, you're obviously doing a good job for haters to have started appearing on your comments! Great going. I make natural products at home, with everything but essential oils straight from the kitchen, and your videos have been a great help. I also understand the emotions related to hair - for women and men alike - so, thank you for your vulnerability and please carry on the good work! All the best!
Woah, I haven't thought about not rinsing out the apple cider vinegar. I can't put up in a protective style (crushes the delicate curls and turns in to frizz), but I want that silk cap. Warning, essential oils can make your skin unhappy (breakouts and rashes), so make sure to rinse or cover skin in that area.
@@kenyett7 Yep, my skin is usually good with tea tree and lavender, just saying if you do this and notice any irritation it might be the essential oils, not the ACV. Especially if the oils get on your skin with no carrier oil to dilute.
@@WafflesOinc Actually, no. It's very toxic if you consume the oil. Lavender is a common oil that people develop an allergy to. That's why if you do continue to put an oil, find one that isn't likely to give you an allergy.
I use a lot of essential oils and I love them. But: before using an essential oil you've never used before always do a test first, so you're sure you aren't allergic !!! Put a drop inside on the skin inside your elbow (very delicate skin) and wait 24h. If there's nothing and it's not itchy you're good. And always read the directions about each essential oils (with some you can't put it directly on the skin, with other you can't go under the sun with it (because they can cause photosensitivity etc)). They are great and useful but they can be very very dangerous.
literally everything about you makes me WANT to hear every single word you are saying lmaooo i just found your videos and i am in loveeee~~~ thank you so much for this
Hi, I didn't know my hair type until an aunt told me "I only comb my hair in the shower with conditioner and when it's wet after the shower". I do that and use a styling cream, like a conditioner but no-rinse, roll it and press upwards with my hand until it unrolls and let it dry like that. I discovered that sometimes I have waves and other times curls, but I NEVER comb or brush when dry.Not even with my fingers. Been doing this for years now. Hope this helps someone!
Isabella Thank you so very much for sharing this video, I watched this today & tried it & it worked wonders for my hair, it has been sooooo tangled and knotty,,,I used 2T vinegar 1cup water 2 bottles of distilled water.. I love it, I had no tangles or knots.....I'm grateful to you & I used 5 drops of the oil ....
A hint from me: It takes a few weeks (about 2) of use every second day until the apple vinegar really gives you a shine. Just do it once a week after that and your hair will do great! If you had short hair I'd suggest not washing your hair for a week since a natural oil treatment can really repair your hair (especially after bleaching)! But with yours... it'd take months for the natural oils to flow to the ends of the strands and...yeah...no.
Hey Isabella! I moved to LA (with some epic hard water) two years ago and my hair took a hit (dullness and hair loss); this helped so much! My hair hasn't been so soft or shiny in a while - and no lingering smell! Thank you very much for sharing the knowledge!❤❤❤
I dont think Brad Mondo knows anything about hair growth, i think hes just a haidresser. he doesnt know much about color theory either imo. He uses outdated methods...
Ok I tried this, using filtered cold water as last rinse and air dried. It has been a while since I have seen my hair not frizzy and shiny. I will keep doing it weekly. I didn't have the ACV with the mother, I suppose it is working well enough. Edit: 4 weeks later I improved my hair care routine, and the ACV definitely contributes to it as well. I cut my hair, now all the dry parts are gone. I use clarifying shampoo once a week (I have oily scalp), do light oil treatment before wash, and do the last rinse with the ACV (this whole routine is for every other wash, once a week). I use coconut milk based shampoo for the other wash. I also blow dry my hair (as opposed to air dry it, since I learned air drying it make the hair prone to breakage) with the lowest setting and at least 6 inches away. I bought silk pillowcase. No more frizz, my hair looks the healthiest as long as I can remember, slight improvement on hair fall, my seborrheic dermatitis improved, easier to manage, and I am way happier. I still need to flat iron it if I want a smooth finish, but I try to do it in low heat and section my hair, so each strand gets maximum heat as much as the low setting allows and I don't have to go over it twice. Also, use heat protector. I recommend Trav White's channel as well. He does long hair tips for men, but women can benefit as well.

Isabella Demarko, girl you changed my life! My hair struggle has been so similar to yours. I felt like I was doing all the "right" things: never using heat, washing less frequently, rarely using a hair brush and finger combing instead, using a microfiber wrap instead of a bath towel to dry it... My hair just kept getting more and more dry, frizzy, and tangley. And then I saw this video, and then all the pieces came together... My tap water reeks of chlorine! And there are definitely hard minerals in it based on the build-up on my shower head. I just did an ACV rinse and brought jars of filtered water into the shower to rinse between shampoo and conditioner and everything... And my hair feels like my old hair again! It's soft and manageable, just like that. So thankful to you!!!

Acv actually removes remains of chlorine from your hair after swimming pools as the chlorine still remains in your hair even after shampooing it so I recommend using the acv rinse after swimming
As someone on swim team I need to try this! I use oils and serums and wet m6 hair before swimming and wear a swim cap, but you can never be too careful.
Can we talk about how this video is put together so well? This is the content I signed up for.
Ive been using ACV on my hair for years now. Everytime I feel like my hair needs softness or my scalp starts to itch I use it as a rinse. Love it and I mostly use it instead of conditioner. A great idea is also putting in different herbs like rosemary, sage (caureful makes hair little darker) or calendula for extra nutrition. Just fill a mason jar with the herbs/flowers and pour in the ACV. Close the jar and let it soak at least 1 week. I have mine in my cupboard for a year already and it still works awesome!
Hove you all have a great day!
Hey this sounds very good!
Can you tell me how are you using it? How often, how much, do you rince with water after, etc.
@@user-kg7bo1go7x Oh and I dip my hair ends in first and let it sit for a few seconds and then rinse over my head and massage it into my scalp. It really helps with itchy skin and dandruff.
@@nico-1553 does apple cider vinegar help with greasy hair? X
Acv works as a preservative? Or you keep this in fridge?
@@Anamaria2301 I keep it in a cool place like the normal ACV :)
I’m so proud of her hair journey she’s come so far
the way her accent changed when she said “ooohhh damn gurlll”
She was feeling herself 😂😂😂
I've been doing ACV rinses for about half a year now. I use it whenever i feel like it, but i learned right away to use filtered water. My hair grows faster in the fall/winter but I've noticed it's been growing a lot faster since using ACVs. You can also add herbs to your rinses, let them sit for a week and you have an even better rinse. Holistic Habits discusses this in her video about it.
In terms of the amount of acv i use, i can just eyeball it. My scalp gets oily rather quickly while my ends are on the dry side.. However. During my time on the long hair community forums someone told me to try kombucha in place of the acv (or with it) It has a slightly higher pH level i think? So it may be better for certain hair types. Just something to think about trying i suppose!
It's pretty annoying tho how none of the articles tell you that filtered/distilled water is the best? they don't mention it at all.. like lol?
Do you shampoo, condition and then pour the ACV on? Also do you rinse it out after you've poured it on, or leave it in like she mentioned in the video? Thankss!
Do you use it in your scalp too??
Do you think that using products after the avc rinse will affect the results?
@@pandaabearr I shampoo and condition it yes. However I still use it even if I dint shampoo my roots and it's still works really well. Always always always let it stay in your hair. Air dry or use a fan to help it dry. Then I apply some hair oils. I made my oil which includes seabuckthorn oil, castor oil and a carrier oil of olive or coconut. Acvs are best used when you've done an oil treatment on dirty hair. Always pour it over cold, use filtered
@@emotionallyunstable619 no, it just depends on what you use. My hair likes oils so it enhances my results, it's a matter of what your hair takes to and can withstand. Its basically like feeding your hair at the end of the day lol
Love how much care, effort and research you have put into this video and topic. You have gained a new subscriber ❤
I haven’t heard of a silk cap I’m going to add that to amazon shopping cart 😂 looks like it does wonders
It's a curly/afro hair care secret. Get your hair popping ♨️😂
Sarah Yoongi silk is being made from animals suffering real pain. Please consider that when you are buying it
“Animals” b they made from nasty bugs. If u care about them so much then you should let them live in your home
Jordan Jones just go watch how they are treated. They are burning alive and shit
Krr Brr ok I’ll look more into the company I’m buying it from thanks
I have to say you changed my life... literally. I rinsed my hair yesterday the way you told in your video. The first time in about 2 years I love my hair without styling it. I have literally the same hair structure as you. And the difference is breathtaking. THANK YOU SO MUCH 💙
THANK YOU FOR USING REPUTABLE PEER-REVIEWED JOURNAL ARTICLES! Finalllllllyyyyy someone on the internet knows how to actually research lmao!!
Why do I feel like your success is a personal victory for me (???)
Your hair is looking so great!
Videos that actually have so much effort and thought put into them instead of just making a claim are so refreshing these days. Thank u for this 🙏🙏
I just stumbled across one of her hair videos today and found myself binge watching the rest...she really had done her research, all the videos are very educational and I also found them to be very entertaining...new subscriber today 😌
I honestly have no idea why I'm watching this since I've never given two hoots about what my hair looks like beyond like "is it a mess" and "is it clean", but this is just... so fascinating.
As a scientist myself I have to say I am very impressed with this (maybe it's a scientist thing? It's an interesting question I've never considered investigating). Your background research makes a genuine effort to be neutral and cover multiple sources, you acknowledge the lack of consensus in the area and include relevant background information about hair type and water type and pH. Not to mention the end where you acknowledge your sources of error and how they influence your results... girl if I could get my second year bio students to approach their lab reports with this level of critical thinking! Assuming you have no scientific background (I could be wrong tbh, I don't know you), the research, proposal, experimental design, and presentation of results are really well done! Just wanted to let you know.
Looking forward to further videos! I really enjoy your style of making them.
Why is she the best person I've ever watched for hair help? Like nobody else on yt is an in depth as she is and is HONEST about hair struggles
You can tell there was SO much effort put into this, you are the freaking BEST and fans like me can see how much passion you put into your videos. Pleeeeasssseee keep them coming!!!!! Love ya !!!💙💙💙
aw thank you that means so much! x
Watched this near the end of my shower and so glad I did. I was able to follow your steps in real time. Thanks for doing this exploration for us.
I’ve been using the ACV rinse treatment for a year or so now for whenever I feel like my oily hair needs a good “reset” and omg I’m so happy I found out about it. My hair always feels so nice after I do it.
FINALLY the best video explaining what everybody does and I don't know why. Scienfic explanations are what we need. Thank you so much
I'm so happy for you!!! Honestly, I've been skeptical about ACV, but after seeing what it did to your hair, I think I might try that sometime soon.
Isabella! I have never said this to anyone or any platform ever. I love you and it’s love at first sight or sorry, love at first watch. Now, you’d be mine for keeps. Well done on your researches and excellent delivery. Salut!
I love how high-quality your videos are! ❤
Doing your final rinse with cold water is easy whenever you’ve used up all the hot water 👍🏻
girl you’re so smart! keep posting these, love ya x
thank you!
The best video on youtube on ACV for hair! Congratulations!!
I wash my hair once a week and every time I wash it, I use the rinse, I don't use shampoo and I love the results it's giving me!!!
So is it working well???? And did u change anything??? But like if I use a shampoo is it still gonna give me good results??
@@malakkhaled5329 It is still working really well, I use shampoo once a month (more or less) and the frizz in my hair has been amazingly reduced, you have to be careful with which kind of shampoo you wash your hair, but I believe it will work anyway.
Another thing I've been trying out this last few weeks are natural hair masks, there are a lot of examples here in UA-cam and my hair is even better thanks to them
The only video on this topic that is informative, to the point, and without anecdotes. Thank you! ❤
I have extremely hard water in my city. I always had problems with scalp itching and seborrheic scalp. It was pretty bad, and still when I went to places with soft water the itch wouldnt come back. When I picked up on this I started ACVing my hair (and rinsing it) and the itch and seborrhea got under control! Finally I can live with my hair and scalp, I tried so many ways and shampoos but the problem was in water and not shampoos and ACV saved me definitely. Even if u rinse the acv rinse it works, (I leave it for a few mins while shaving/and I put conditioner on my ends while having acv on my scalp..
Really works wonders.
Omg my scalp itches will bad and I get bumps sometimes as well... I’m definitely trying this!
Have you tried using a shower filter?
same problem here, my head is falling apart :( which ratio did you use?
This totally makes sense considering when my hair stated getting damaged, frizzy and brittle, and it was after we moved to a place with veeery hard water. Thank you very much for sharing your research, I will try this since I have a Brita and can buy ACV.
I love that you to so many articles. I wonder, if the primary benefit is the pH, why is it recommended that ACV with the mother is important. I feel like it would still work with regular vinegar, with the proper ratio to get the desired pH.
Huge news for saving money and reducing waste!!You can use charcoal sticks to filter your water. It’s one time buy. Water filters have charcoal sticks inside the plastic component but instead of throwing it out you can boil the charcoal stick and use it over and over again.
I usually skip the sponsor clip at the start of sponsored videos, but I felt so intrigued by this art company. Loved it.
I love watching your videos while doing homework they are calming and chill but also give my information about hair
I know this is last minute, but I recently started having extremely similar hair issues to yours and I started using plain rose water in a spray bottle after washing my hair and has significantly decreased my frizz and has increased my shine! Also, rose water’s PH is from 4-4.5. Hope this helps :).
I have hair issues *very* similar to yours, so decided to give this ago - who cares about smelling like a chippy during lockdown? And oh my gosh, my hair is so soft and so shiny, I can't stop stroking it! I invested in a Brita filter and pretty much followed exactly what you did - 1:8 ratio of ACV to filtered water, rinsed with filtered water first, added some lavender oil too, clipped my hair up afterwards. Going to try doing it once a week for a while to see what happens. Thank you so much for your very thorough videos :)
i find it astonishing that you put so much effort into making these videos. you could make them so much more simple but we can tell your editing and research explanations make the biggest difference. its so so so thoughtful of you to make all this extra effort to put out such great content. i see you, girl! thank you so much for your commitment! 🖤
i have naturaly straight hair but my best friend is struggling with extreme frizzy and damaged hair...this really helped me benefit her with her journey thank you so much!!!❤️
Wow! I've spent so many years hating my brittle and dry frizzy hair (literally feels like hay sometimes) and have tried every oil imaginable, including coconut. I could have sworn it made my hair worse, and thought I must be crazy considering what everyone else was saying, so kept on trying it anyway! Then I stumbled upon your other video about cracking the frizzy hair mystery, and it just made so so much sense compared to everything else I've ever heard. So I tried your apple cider rinse as shown in the video, and my goodness, I have never woken up with such soft hair! It's still far from perfect (I have quite a lot of curly hair, but each strand is really thin), but this is the most amazing result I've ever had. Thank you so much for your video. I will keep trying this! ❤❤
U need to water ur hair first before using things like coconut oil.
Use a satin silk bonnet also❤
I’m just super amused on how much effort you put into your videos , from the images to the funny videos and the huge amount of research. I truly appreciate all of this and I enjoyed every second its not boring at all like most videos about hair . Love love love your channel and I wish you all the best
I have a friend whose hair texture changes when she goes on/off the pill because of the hormones. Maybe you are experiencing something similar?
@Isabella Demarko PLEASE test out the rice water thing. I am testing it out, but your ACV video was so danggggggg helpful (Seriously my hair looks FRICKING BOMB) I Have heard only good things about this so it would be AWESOME if you did a video on this. I have the same dreams as you concerning hair and I am trying to take care of it better so your channel is PERFECT for me right now. Love you and thank you!
No matter what products I use during the shampooing or conditioning, I always notice that the after care matters the most for me. Using oil for my ends as leave-in, wrapping my hair in a t-shirt instead of a towel... andddd letting my hair air dry like 80% and then wrapping it with same style as you do. That is what gives me the non-frizzy look.
@Isabella Demarko I just wanted to let you know I have a lot of respect for you hon. I am a teenager and have not had long hair since I was 12. I had the exact same dreams as you and had grown it out to my waist, (My vision was rapunzel hair.) but I had a ton of breakage, so much that it was pointed at the end, almost like the letter V. My hair would come out so much and it was super obnoxious. My hair was not thick or shiny and I didn't know how to style it. It had some strange waves and was wispy. It took an hour to blow dry, so I never did. I had no self-awareness, however, and did not care how it looked, I only cared about convenience. Whenever I did my hair in the morning, my only thought was "How can I put my hair up so it doesn't get caught in my backpack straps?" I never cut my hair unless my mom made me and it took a huge argument to get me to do it. It only happened about once every 6 months. I had split ends and breakage constantly. One night in January of 2018, I was reading and I had the spontaneous thought to cut my hair. My mom booked me an appointment with a lady from my church who had done an amazing job on other girl's hair. I took a picture right before I cut it, and the longest part of it (The point of the V) barely touched my butt. I got about 15 inches cut off, and after that, it was shiny and smooth. It ended right at my shoulders and I was very pleased with it. I still am. It is very sleek and shiny and high quality. I hardly ever have split ends. About a month ago, I saw your hir story video. It made me want to grow my hair out again, but this time, I would take care of it. I started my brand new hair journey on October 7th. I got my hair cut that day and I measured my hair (I start at about my sideburns) and it was at 7.25 inches. I measured it on November 7th, after ACV rinses, using lower heat (I am not skilled enough to do good no heat hairstyles), washing my hair upside down, and using the Inversion Method. My hair had grown 3/4 of an inch, which is huge for me. HUGE. it took me 4 YEARS to get to waist length before. 4 YEARS. Now, I have 3/4 of an inch in a month. I have been using your tips and other tips that I have done heavy research on. Your ACV video, in particular, was very helpful. My hair is now mega sleek and shiny and I LOVE IT. Anyway, I wanted to tell you my personal hair story, and I admire you for the passion you have for your hair. I have that passion as well and I respect you for it. Love ya!
Tip for finding your pH: stores that sell fish supplies should also sell pH strips or test kits!
how would we do it, those methods require it to be in a solution and how could we dissolve hair??? I want to know too! but for now, i'm using my ph meter to take a look at my water, and all hair products definitely!
@@priscilamorales6997 For testing your tap water...
Your the only UA-camr I never get sick of your so amazing
pls continue this hair series cos im livin for itttttttt
I am amazed. I have had such a similar journey to this girl. My hair type is also similarly.
For me the curly hair method ruined it. Buildup does not do good to semi wavy, thin hair. It got super crunchy
Currently I'm in such a better place. Here's what I did:
1) Washing with inversion method
2) Washing with a 5.5 shampoo bar. If you can't find it, use baby dove soap at least it's pH neutral (7) which is better than most shampoos
3) A silicone free conditioner.
4) And then a rinse with ACV rinse. Except I add tea tree oil instead of lavender oil. I am doing 1 cup water + 1 TSP ACV, + 4 drops tea tree. I use this after every wash on my scalp.
5) On my ends I do the same mix but i also add 6 drops of almond oil because I want my ends to be a bit more oiled than my scalp.
6) Once in 10 days I apply a scalp exfoliating shampoo that has salicylic acid and piroctone (I have struggles with itchy, oily scalp). But I don't apply it to my lengths, just roots with a bowl and brush.
Tea tree oil helps with sebbhoreac dermatitis, and demodex infestation which I suspect I had.
I also did a lot of research like her and I'm actually a medical doctor too
I actually love doing acv rinses. my hair loves acv, and it surprisingly makes it so soft!
Wow! Your hair looks so much better after that treatment. So much more shiny and sleek!
Back when I was anti-silicone and using only natural ingredients on my hair, I would use half ACV and half water as a leave in conditioner after I washed my hair. The reason I didn't use silicone products is because ACV can remove build up so it would dry out my hair and remove the siliconey conditioner. I haven't used ACV in my hair care in years tho and I definitely want to bring it back.
As for it removing hair dye, I totally think it does. Whenever I would use ACV my hair would definitely fade and change the color of the water. I even use the "no poo" method (baking soda as shampoo, ACV as conditioner) to remove hair dye when I want to change my color! Works like a charm.
Hey so 1) if you're so curious about PH thingy, i would recommend you to go to the drug store and buy ph strips for urine and saliva testing, you can measure your scincare products with it as well.
2) I preferably sleep with french braid or just braid, sometimes i add a little protection with ribbon. It's not as expensive as pure-silk-cap for girls who can't allow expensive purchases, but it also protects hair wery well, i usually don't need a hairbrush after braid overnight and also my hair is curlier in a pretty way.
I love how much you dedicated yourself to this. You go girl go and get that pretty hair!
I like that idea of distilled water. I will try that bottle of cider vinegar I bought 6 months ago. You helped me feel more confident about using it.
I appreciate the efforts you're making with your hair series. I still think you can try and give going curly a try since you have waves, but I'm also happy to see that you are implementing tips that curly girls swear by! I do an ACV rinse and use bonnets
I did a rosemary rinse with acv today for the first time, and daaaang guurl, my hear never looked that shiny and felt that smooth before! You should definitely give it a try! I had the "recipe" from holistichabits channel, you just bring water to a boil on a stove and add some fresh rosemary (dried rosemary or rosemary oil/essence will surely do it as well) and let it simmer for around 20-30 minutes. Let the water-rosemary-mixture cool down, put a littlebit of acv in it and dump it over your hair after shampooing it just like a normal acv rinse! Ofc you can dilute the mixture with water as well to save some for future hairwashes. Hope you see my comment and that I can help you!
Daemonenkoenigin13 hey.... after using acv wash then I should wash with plane water.. ...
@@vivekxyzgupta You can leave it in, no need to wash it out :)
I just did that and my head stinks of acv, tips??
@@annadiezz4895 use an essential oil of your choosing and add 3-5 drops of it in the rinse. :) lavender and mint are the best smelling in my opinion
I found u so honest as u placed yourself before us..u experimented n den let us know..thanku dear💜
In some pet stores they sell ph level testers (because some fish need a certain ph level om the water) so maybe you can use that to try the ph on your shower water :)
I been using a silk hair cap for a year now and I have straight hair, it’s amazing and helps with frizz, split ends, and traps in moisture as well as keeping it smooth
I just want to say that I have watched SOOOO many hair care videos and so many people half-explain things leaving me overwhelmed and confused. This video was so beautifully made with the all of the research and the visuals and just the honesty I wanna cry euhfadkjdkvbdsv
literally. it’s so refreshing
Very well done video!!! You explain things in such a way that they become easy to understand and I saw a huge difference in the quality of your hair after the rinse! I’m going to try it.
So glad I have a shower filter. Its a great investment especially if you have scalp and skin issues
Love how you’ve done proper scientific research and experimentation there, really great vid!
maybe to counter the oil stripping effects of the acv you should use a light oil after you get out of the shower as after care
SO HAPPY I FOUND THIS. Everybody keeps commenting I have dry hair... but I don't. It's just frizzy because I live in the tropics. (I don't have split ends since I always get a trim). I was about to buy a one-step hairdryer to tame the frizziness... but I'm glad to have seen this before ordering online. I'm gonna buy a silk cap instead and do this rinse. Sending my love to you from the Philippines.
Damn gurl this is one wholesome video. I never thought of a hair care this massive. I MEAN- THIS IS AN EYE-OPENER FOR ME!! I didnt know it was this complicated but i really really appreciate how much u care about hair and sharing ur knowledge to other people ♥️ i wanna try this one
I LOVED your video bc you did exactly what I did, RESEARCHING. This is the only way to know the correct way of doing things, the miths and facts, so thank you for sharing this with us !!
I love these hair videos! Looking forward to seeing more. 🥰
The details and research in this wonderful video really impressed me. Thank you for all your hard work and research!
I think I really like the sponsor for this video I’m currently transforming my room in new house.
that's great! thank you for being supportive about it! x :)
Thank you for sharing! I personal feel like using less products is the key to healthy hair and a healthy body in general. Also using self made products is so good not only for the ingredients but also the process of making something good for you is healing as well. It is like cooking a healthy, delicious meal.
Big love

Big shout to all my Ebony Queen's whom been wearing silk bonnet, protective styling and curly gal-method since the began of time.P.S. You're welcome my Ivory Sista's
Azbibby, it does need to be said that if we white girls would have taken the advice of our black sisters decades ago, we would have much nicer hair! Instead, we believed advertisements by companies wanting to sell us stuff. I really believe that racism and the false belief that there is nothing similar in our slightly different hair types blocks white girls from the best advice out there.
Dude /yes/ going to the hair products for black girls sections has changed my LIFE. Thank you omg
This comment is so wholesome
Yeah, pretty much all the best hair care videos on youtube Ive seen are from black women, its clear that they have tons of knowledge (lots of which seems to be common knowledge within black community)
Babbbyyyy yes I was like oh boy you just stepped into the Queen’s hair palace 😂
Your editing!!! Chef's kiss!!!
when you keep touching your hair, you’re separating the strands that naturally clump together and it causes frizz
Well,, Miss D, you're obviously doing a good job for haters to have started appearing on your comments! Great going. I make natural products at home, with everything but essential oils straight from the kitchen, and your videos have been a great help.
I also understand the emotions related to hair - for women and men alike - so, thank you for your vulnerability and please carry on the good work!
All the best!
Woah, I haven't thought about not rinsing out the apple cider vinegar. I can't put up in a protective style (crushes the delicate curls and turns in to frizz), but I want that silk cap. Warning, essential oils can make your skin unhappy (breakouts and rashes), so make sure to rinse or cover skin in that area.
Tea tree, eucalyptus, rosehip seed and cedar wood oils don't break me out and my skin is SENSATIVE 😩
@@kenyett7 Yep, my skin is usually good with tea tree and lavender, just saying if you do this and notice any irritation it might be the essential oils, not the ACV. Especially if the oils get on your skin with no carrier oil to dilute.
Lavender is safe
@@WafflesOinc Actually, no. It's very toxic if you consume the oil. Lavender is a common oil that people develop an allergy to. That's why if you do continue to put an oil, find one that isn't likely to give you an allergy.
I use a lot of essential oils and I love them. But: before using an essential oil you've never used before always do a test first, so you're sure you aren't allergic !!! Put a drop inside on the skin inside your elbow (very delicate skin) and wait 24h. If there's nothing and it's not itchy you're good. And always read the directions about each essential oils (with some you can't put it directly on the skin, with other you can't go under the sun with it (because they can cause photosensitivity etc)). They are great and useful but they can be very very dangerous.
literally everything about you makes me WANT to hear every single word you are saying lmaooo i just found your videos and i am in loveeee~~~ thank you so much for this
Hey first view! Good luck on your hair journey love!
As a cosmetology student I am very impressed with what you know! Very accurate information
Hi, I didn't know my hair type until an aunt told me "I only comb my hair in the shower with conditioner and when it's wet after the shower". I do that and use a styling cream, like a conditioner but no-rinse, roll it and press upwards with my hand until it unrolls and let it dry like that. I discovered that sometimes I have waves and other times curls, but I NEVER comb or brush when dry.Not even with my fingers. Been doing this for years now. Hope this helps someone!
Isabella Thank you so very much for sharing this video, I watched this today & tried it & it worked wonders for my hair, it has been sooooo tangled and knotty,,,I used 2T vinegar 1cup water 2 bottles of distilled water..
I love it, I had no tangles or knots.....I'm grateful to you & I used 5 drops of the oil ....
A hint from me: It takes a few weeks (about 2) of use every second day until the apple vinegar really gives you a shine. Just do it once a week after that and your hair will do great!
If you had short hair I'd suggest not washing your hair for a week since a natural oil treatment can really repair your hair (especially after bleaching)! But with yours... it'd take months for the natural oils to flow to the ends of the strands and...yeah...no.
Hey Isabella! I moved to LA (with some epic hard water) two years ago and my hair took a hit (dullness and hair loss); this helped so much! My hair hasn't been so soft or shiny in a while - and no lingering smell! Thank you very much for sharing the knowledge!❤❤❤
I just want Brad Mondo to react to this
I dont think Brad Mondo knows anything about hair growth, i think hes just a haidresser. he doesnt know much about color theory either imo. He uses outdated methods...
Brad Mondo is a hack
Yes plse !
OMG SAMEEEEE
sofsof 18 I think brad mondo will be able to help her cause even though he is a hairdresser he must know at least something that will help isabella
Ok I tried this, using filtered cold water as last rinse and air dried. It has been a while since I have seen my hair not frizzy and shiny. I will keep doing it weekly. I didn't have the ACV with the mother, I suppose it is working well enough.
Edit: 4 weeks later I improved my hair care routine, and the ACV definitely contributes to it as well. I cut my hair, now all the dry parts are gone. I use clarifying shampoo once a week (I have oily scalp), do light oil treatment before wash, and do the last rinse with the ACV (this whole routine is for every other wash, once a week). I use coconut milk based shampoo for the other wash. I also blow dry my hair (as opposed to air dry it, since I learned air drying it make the hair prone to breakage) with the lowest setting and at least 6 inches away. I bought silk pillowcase.
No more frizz, my hair looks the healthiest as long as I can remember, slight improvement on hair fall, my seborrheic dermatitis improved, easier to manage, and I am way happier. I still need to flat iron it if I want a smooth finish, but I try to do it in low heat and section my hair, so each strand gets maximum heat as much as the low setting allows and I don't have to go over it twice. Also, use heat protector. I recommend Trav White's channel as well. He does long hair tips for men, but women can benefit as well.
