Several months back I was having a problem with my hair falling out
and I had a rash on my head really bad,
not just your normal shedding, lots of hair coming out when I would wash
my hair in the shower my hair was coming out by the hand fulls( I am
wishing now that I had taken some before and after photos), I was
getting to
wear I was afraid that soon I wasn't going to have any hair left, and
the rash would itch like CRAZY!! sometime the rash would get really bad
and would crack and bleed :( no fun :(
So
I started to do some research and I found where a lot of people who's
hair was falling out it was a reaction to their shampoos and
conditioners or at least to what was in them. They all had found that
once they switched over to this method that I going to tell you
about,that their hair started to grow back, either to the way it was or
more than what they had, had before. Now that I am using this method
that I am going to tell you about, my hair is now longer than I have
ever been able to keep it without
looking to scraggly, thin, and messy all the time, the ends don't split
as fast
and I don't have as many fly-away hairs. My hair even has a nice sheen
to it that last from freshly grown hair, that use to fade and get dull
very quickly and the rash is totally gone!!
The method that I am talking about is the
vinegar and
baking soda
method. I will stress for the first month (they say it is different
for each person) I wasn't sure if it was going to work, because my hair
was getting more and more greasy each time I would wash it, and I was
having to use more and more
baking soda
just to soak up the oils from my head, but they said to hang in there
that this was called the detox stage and that it would pass. I had seen
where it took one lady almost 6 months before she made it through the
detox stage, she said she almost gave up because of how long it was
taking, but she said she is now glad she hung in there. Well so I hung
in there and after almost 2 months it passed and I don't have to use
hardly any
baking soda and just a little bit of
vinegar.
When I first start by washing my hair with
baking soda,
I use between a 1 -3 tablespoons depending on how greasy my hair is, I
also will add 1 -3 drops of my favorite essential oils. I use
vinegar as my conditioner. I use a ratio 1 part
vinegar to 1 part water. The amount of
vinegar you use is depending on how long and thick your hair is. I have found now that I have to use a little more
vinegar than I use to, because of how long it is getting. A lot of people don't like the smell of
vinegar, if you don't like the smell of the
vinegar, you can add a drop or 2 of your favorite essential oils to help with the scent, although the
vinegar smell will dissipate fairly quickly after washing even without the essential oils added.
Tip: When washing my hair with the
baking soda and
vinegar,
I put my head upside down and work from the back of my neck to roots,
forward to the front of my head and I find that I don't have to use as
much
baking soda and
vinegar that way and it seems to stimulate the blood flow to my head and help with faster hair growth.
sorry
for all the rambling, but I wanted to share my story with you all, and
hope it helps someone with the same problem I was having.
