When you use apple cider vinegar, the water is never going to look clear like straight up water. Your hair was likely extremely clean by bath #7.

[@babidavi6910]

She compared a cup of the solution to what it looked like after she used it and bath #7 was the closest to the original but it was still dark compared to it. It probably looked a lot worse in person too.

[@keilah4039]

Heyyy Lydia! Good to see that you're well. 😊 That ACV soak is the truth! A tip for your future loc baths: keep a coffee/tea mug close by, so that when the solution is cool enough, you can pour over the parts of your hair that the mixture cannot reach, namely the crown of your head. I also try to pour it directly on my scalp to dislodge any stuff there. Big up to Whitney's new Melanin hair care line! Now you got me interested in trying it out.

[@lhamilt]

Hey girl hayyyyyyy! Good call on the cup once the temp comes down. Whitney’s oil is delightful! Nice size for the price

[@katiecusick9173]

Rinsing your hair in between each bath would have helped with the water staying so dark each round..if you would have rinsed you would have probably only done 3 or 4 soaks but either way you got it clean!

[@lhamilt]

I agree!

[@kelseymccollam5148]

[@natedizzy4939]

if you do the baking soda first and then do the acv after it will help prevent you from getting that over stripped dry feeling in your hair. they counteract eachother to a degree as one is a base and one is an acid. they dont fully neutralize when mixed but they are definitely better used separately. nice video though!

[@MrsKFP]

Thank you for the tips!! I've been wanting to try an ACV wash, but I don't have your length. Trying to figure out how to pull it off without scalding myself.🤔

[@lhamilt]

Paula I think it’s totally doable with a shorter length! If you spritzed the warm solution on your locs until they’re sopping wet and let it sit and then wash out, it could have a very similar effect. It’s not exactly submerging the hair, but letting the solution sit in it for sure could help!

[@MrsKFP]

@@lhamilt never would have thought of that. I have a continuous spray bottle that should do the trick!!

[@meganyoumad]

Did it help clear your scalp at all? I’m curious if ACV would clear my dry scalp

[@lhamilt]

It definitely cleansed my scalp, but the dry scalp for me is remedied *for me* by using light oil.

[@lynnie5551]

Depending on your scalp type, witch hazel does a great job cleansing the scalp. If you have very dry scalp though, it might over dry since it is a natural astringent. Plus, it is very hard to find it w/o added alcohol.

[@JahleeyahKalonji]

Ihamilt, great video, I did this once myself and it does work, didn't do it as intensive as you though. I recently tried a bentonite clay cleanse and OMG, my locs are sooo much lighter/cleaner/softer. Just light and fluffy, lol, it did pull up lots of build up/lint to the surface though. Very noticeable, so that's something to be aware of. Best treatment I've done. I would say this should be done on mature locs because it does go really deep. It pulled apart some of the locs that was combined for years. Not totally but you could see it was combined. I made mine with coconut vinegar and ACV, warmed it up and made the mixture. I made mine way more watery when compared to most YT videos I've seen. Worked incredibly well though. I had to rinse, rinse, rinse and repeat, lol to get the water clear though. The clay wasn't hard to wash out, it's just that it's pulls up EVERYTHING, so lots of rinsing before you get clear water lol. I love how light a free my locs are. Whatever method is used, a locs detox/cleanse/bathe is a must on mature locs. I would say once or twice a year for sure.

[@lhamilt]

Ooh I may need to try the clay in the future! Thank you for sharing. I was so shocked by the amount that came out

I really like that you added hot water and clear shampoo too the water plus you dunked your head inside the solution more then once. If I do this every 3 months do you think that is too often to do this bath once every season 😊

[@lhamilt]

Hot water and clear shampoo is key to see the dirt in my opinion! I wouldn’t do more than 2x a year, it’s kinda harsh and possibly drying.

Omg do you realize how much money you could make doing audio books, speaking on commercials, infomercials, self help tapes. Your voice is AMAZINGLY SOOTHING 😍 and comforting (if that makes sense)... Ps for the sake of your back and neck go on amazon and get the inflatable basin for the tub or you can lay in the living room, watch some tv and soak. I got one for my daughter ACV washes its so helpful. And Maybe increase the amount of the ingredients it will pull more out in one bath. I usually only do 2 for my daughter and it works 🤷🏾.
