How to Make a DIY Silk Apple Cider Vinegar Hair Rinse

[@almondflour4785]

Would love to hear people’s experience using this formula! Marie, we love you so much

[@erinleigh2549]

One of my favorite things I've made so far learning your stuff. I have well water and it takes away the residue. And it silkifies your hair even without the phytokeratin. Thank you!

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Hooray! Thanks for DIYing with me, and happy making :)

[@shelovesbutter3524]

I can't even tell you how much I love your videos and recipes. I get so excited when I see you've posted a new video. I made the Houdini Face Cream the other night and love it. I don't know if it's just a placebo effect, but I swear it's already making my skin clearer. I'll never buy face cream ever, ever again. Thank you for all your hard work.

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thank you so much! I'm so thrilled you're loving the Houdini Face Cream-I love how it smells, and its rather "how did that happen?" purple colour :P

[@dd7leung2002]

Thanks for sharing! Love your videos, clear instructions and lots of useful info! Perhaps a couple of very silly questions, how long should this hair rinse stay in the hair and I suppose we should rinse again with water? And what's the sequence if I want to use a conditioner? 1. Shampoo, 2. this hair rinse, 3. conditioner?

Hi Marie, When I was a kid my mom rinsed my hair with straight apple cider vinegar! Thanks for sharing this recipe as I am a soap maker who uses her own!

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

You're very welcome! Thanks for watching :D

[@raadizon3442]

Marie I would love for you to make beebetter version of this as an oil-free, low viscosity, hair conditioner. 😍

@@HumblebeeAndMe thank you, I will check that out!

[@carlaamaral2448]

Marie thank you for sharing your amazing recipes and your resource list, you are great, I love your videos. I ended up ordering the Keratin and the TRO from that not very recommendable source, and yes they are very bad. Voyageur soap and candle sells the TRO, it is a little bit more pricey, I have never ordered from them but Liza maybe you can give them a try if you really want to get the Turkey oil. Or stick to Marie alternative substitute and save yourself the extra money and work. When I run out of the TRO I have now I will use the alternative.

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience :( That seems to be the norm with them these days, which is a bummer as they used to be a great source for hard-to-find stuff in Canada. Sigh.

[@Najma-n1]

It looks very beautiful bee, I can see it in a salon although unlikely since it's hard to find that kind of stuff in a chemically smoked house! Hehe this so made my day. As usual very inspiring.

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thank you! Happy making and thanks for watching :D

[@ampp3692]

This is wonderful, thank you Marie, I also make my own shampoo bars and needed this, sorry to say I only have half the ingredients, lol

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thanks, Am! You really only need the diluted apple cider vinegar to get the pH correcting effect, everything else is just a lovely bonus ;) I do love this rinse, but even if you don't have all the bits you definitely still want to do a basic acidic rinse so your hair doesn't tie itself in knots.

[@kathryncastanares525]

this is amazing! you are the only person ive seen/heard of to show using the Turkey red oil. i bought it as soon as i seen this video and it will be here next week! im so excited! im mainly excited because every time i have an Ing i want to make something out of i can always count on you for having a recipe to get me started and inspired! i cant wait to try this hair rinse out! other hair acv rinses ive tried from other videos that have not worked out for me. and with all these wonderful ing you use in your recipe seems like it would be a very luxurious hair rinse! will the TRCO work in some type of cream recipe? i was thinking of trying out a leave in hair cream/condtioner with it?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Hey Kat! I hope you enjoy playing with TRO :) Do read up on it in my FAQ, though-it's not useful for much other than incorporating small amounts of oil into large amounts of water (www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/can-use-emulsifying-wax-instead-solubilizer-solubilizer-instead-emulsifying-wax/).

[@kathryncastanares525]

Humblebee & Me oh perfect! i was just looking to see if you had some info on this. is it a super new oil? i cannot find any videos or other info anywhere on this stuff. thank you so much for the link! i had figured it wouldn't be able to emulsify much. i i was just hoping to use it to cut down on the amount of em. needed. well, actually i mostly wanted to use it in my serum base to help incorporate a couple of extracts i wanted to add. i had made this serum base i wanted to make and got my box of ing delivered so i started making it and discovered that they were a different order. so i had to finish it without everything:( i was going to just use some polysorbate until seeing this video and thinking it might be enough to help? idk. we'll see i guess. i will definitely read the bp. and go from there:) thanks again!

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Not at all-according to Wikipedia "It was the first synthetic detergent after ordinary soap." So it can't be new! I'm guessing there are probably just dozens of other better options courtesy of the never-ending march of chemistry and science, so it has fallen out of favour with most large formulators. It doesn't smell awesome, can irritate the skin in high concentrations, and is oily, so it does have limited uses. For anything that won't be heavily diluted (like this rinse or bath products) I would choose Polysorbate 20/80 or olivem300 instead.

[@VocaloidMadness]

After shampooing and using the BASIC needed ingredients of water and ACV only , is a separate conditioner necessary for detangling ? I do not want my hair to be tangled , but I also DO NOT want to use commercial brands of conditioners , bc they all contain Endocrine Disruptors. If a conditioner is necessary for detangle , Do you have a basic recipe for DIY hair conditioner that can be used DAILY in conjunction with the shampoo and apple cider and water rinse ? Thank you sooo very much for sharing your knowledge .

[@naturegirl175]

This is a wonderful rinse. Thanks for the video.

[@1000VC]

Will the condition of water (hard,soft) alter hairs ph, again, after correcting the ph of hair with this rinse?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Yes, that's pretty much inevitable, but it's not something I've ever been particularly fussed with. You could keep some distilled water in the shower if you're concerned about it.

[@tonyacortez5959]

Awesome video and thank you for sharing the links you’re such a lifesaver ❤️

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thanks for watching & happy making!

[@sara2k79]

Thanks Marie. How do you use a hair rinse? How much product do you use for each rinse? Thanks

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I probably use about 1/3-1/2 cup per use; simply pour it over the hair from about the ears down and then rinse it out :)

[@sara2k79]

Humblebee & Me how long do you need to leave it in your hair before rinsing? Thanks.

[@kandelman1]

Is that to keep it off of the scalp? And do you have an itchy scalp product video?

[@denimacaz]

I always enjoy your videos and this one is no exception. Your sparkling personality makes learning fun things even MORE fun! I've noticed in several of your recipes that you use Turkey Red Oil and Guar Gum together. I'm curious...is the guar gum strictly to add some body to the finished product or is it necessary for Turkey Red Oil to do its job of emulsifying oils into the water?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thanks, Denise! The guar gum does have some emulsifying properties, so while the TRO does the bulk of the emulsifying work, the guar gum helps stabilize the emulsion :) I have used plain ol' TRO and it does work, but I find I'm more likely to need to shake the concoction if it sits on a shelf for a while :) We're usually not using enough guar gum to give any noticeable body, so it's mostly a stabilizer. Thanks for watching and happy making!

[@denimacaz]

+Humblebee & Me ...that's great to know, thank you!

[@rahulchintu100]

Can we use castor oil and zanthum gum instead of turkey red oil and guar gum

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

No; neither have any emulsifying properties at all. You can use Polysorbate 80 instead, though!

[@vaishnavivishwanathan6253]

hi, another great video from you :-) thanks.. how to use this rinse and when?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thanks! Use it after you wash your hair with a CP shampoo bar; pour about 1/2 cup over your hair from the ears down and then rinse it out.

[@vaishnavivishwanathan6253]

that's great.. will try it!! thanks :-)

[@vaishnavivishwanathan6253]

could you please do a video on how to make body scrub that is similar to bath and body works or the body shop?? I find aqua is the first ingredient in all these popular brands and I wish I could do something similar to those. I tried following the method of making lotions, adding some Castile liquid soap and added some exfoliant, but hadn't been succeeding till now. could you please help?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Check the blog-there's quite a few scrub recipes up there :)

[@vaishnavivishwanathan6253]

Hi I always check your blog first hand whenever I want to do something new.. but unfortunately I couldn't find any recipe that has water in it n in gel consistency, which could be scooped in a lotion tube :-(

[@nr9269]

If I use the polysorbate 20, can I still add castor oil to the mix and will polysorbate 20 emulsify the entire mixture?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I wouldn't add castor oil to this-it would very likely result in your hair looking much dirtier than it was when you started. You can learn more about different solubilizers here: www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/different-solubilizer-type-things/. Happy making!

[@paolagutierrez1254]

Do u recomend this for a Non high PH shampoo bar? Thank you i love your videos

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

You certainly could use it, but it's not necessary-your hair would likely benefit more from a conditioner :)

[@carolferguson5467]

Can this be made into a bar form? If so, how? Thank you

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

You can try freezing it, I guess.

[@almondflour4785]

Lol!

[@nicolebarbosa571]

Would this rinse be like Dp Hue APV Rinse?? I’ve been using that daily and wondering if this would replace it and still give me similar results. I should probably clarify that I don’t shampoo or use conditioner when using Dp Hue. I only use the rinse and nothing else to wash my hair and it works great. I won’t be washing my hair with shampoo. Also, is guar gum absolutely necessary or can it be skipped? What does the guar gum do and what might happen to this recipe if left out?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

It looks somewhat similar, but it's hard to say much when I only have access to their ingredient list. I would recommend using something like polysorbate 80 or cromollient SCE instead of the guar gum and turkey red oil; they are designed to function as an emulsifier/solubilizer in this formula, but there are better options. You can learn more here: www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/ :)

[@Einstein4palistine]

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

The same as the measurement for the Turkey Red Oil :)

[@marilyn1228]

Thanks so much!!!

[@Sun111ph]

Humblebee & Me Hi Marie, just to check if we sub polysorbate 20 with the measurement of Turkey Red Oil we still put Guar Gum? Love all your diys!!!

[@drg799802]

Could I dry corn silk and grind in a coffee grinder in replace of the silk or phytokeratin?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

No; you need to be using professionally created ingredients for cleanliness, and the proteins need to be hydrolyzed in order to dissolve, which you cannot do at home.

[@noahmcgee178]

Would you use this before or after conditioner?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

After a high pH shampoo, before conditioner :)

[@lotoslotos5844]

Can you tell me how many time after washing my hair i have to put the rinse.also please i have to washing my hair .

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

You would use this rinse after every wash if you are washing with a basic shampoo, like cold processed soap.

[@nerminanumanovic9049]

Can I use xantan gum instead of guar gum? Also, I don't have the red oil, it it essential ingredinet? Can I omit it?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

You are asking about eliminating both of the emulsifiers, which I don't recommend. You can use polysorbate 20 instead if you like :)

[@nerminanumanovic9049]

Ok darling, thanks!

You are the reason I bought red turkey oil. And my silk powder. 🐛 Now I know why. What can you use if you haven't managed to get phytokeratin yet? 👋

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Happy making! You can leave the phytokeratin out if you don't have it, there aren't any good alternatives that I know of (other than straight-up kertain!).

[@lizaryder5219]

Is there a Canadian site for the keratin? And turkey red? Lotion crafter is in the states I won't pay the shipping. Is there a non vegetarian Keratin? Do you know what it's called I am having a hard time finding something

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I have not found a good source for plant based keratin in Canada since New Directions stopped carrying it, sorry, and I really would not recommend the source I purchased the TRO from anymore. You can use polysorbate 80 instead of TRO, though, and that is readily available in Canada from suppliers like Windy Point. Non vegetarian keratin is keratin, but I've never seen it for sale, likely because it's very expensive as it would have to be harvested from animals. There are lots of places to shop listed here: www.humblebeeandme.com/resources/

[@lizaryder5219]

Humblebee & Me good old "they shall not be named" place in Ontario Canada to order supplies. It's really too bad. They have some great stuff.

Hi Marie, can I use red turkey oil for soaping?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I've never tried it, but I found this interesting article on it: edgewatersoaps.blogspot.ca/2010/01/scientific-soapmaking-sulfated-castor.html

[@madremontejerico]

Wow, That`s a pretty good anwer. Any way it seems one has to experiment and find how it comes out. But then if it has the same benefits as regular castor oil, then there is no point. Thanks a lot.

[@zakenda04]

What is the shelf life for this product?

[@PaulSmith-jd6cd]

Can vegetable glycerin be used as the preservative?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Generally no; enough glycerin will make a formula self preserving, but the amounts required are well beyond what would make for a pleasant product.

[@PaulSmith-jd6cd]

Can I use btms50 instead of guar gum ??

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

[@turtles1717]

Thanks for sharing! How many uses does that recipe get? And how do you use it?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

The number of uses will depend on how long your hair is-probably at least 10. To use it, squirt a bit over your hair from the shoulders down (using it on your roots will cause your hair to get dirty faster) after shampooing, and then rinse your hair with some clean water. I have thick hair so I'll usually gather it into a sort-of over the shoulder pony tail, pour some rinse over it, flip it over, and pour some more over it. I don't need all that much-maybe 1/4 cup total each wash?

[@priyadarshiniaswin6997]

Hi your video are awesome. I just loved it. Can we make hair rinse with the help of Apple cider vinegar, hot water and mango butter? If we can then pl tell me how to do it?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

You can use ACV + hot water, but not mango butter. That would require an emulsifier, and even then I think you'd have issues with the mango butter solidifying and separating.
