Small tip! If you want your hair to smell good, rinse with green tea/mint tea/ jasmine tea! 😊

[@paraescucharrap]

Good idea. Thanks

[@latonya._]

yes green tea also promotes hair growth

[@LotusFlowerLife]

That is such a good tip, I gotta try that!

[@fifiooo]

Great tip! At which point in the process? Is it ok to do it at the end?

[@GoOgleAccount-rq7cs]

fifiooo yes that’s what you should do because the Apple cider vinegar has a strong smell that you really do not want in your hair

[@jonbishop1385]

Hi Curlypenny, My daughter shared your video with me, I use Both of the ingredients myself But Can i just bring one thing to your attention that i found out the hard way. In the US you call it baking soda,In the UK its called Bicarbonate of soda, If UK viewers use baking soda it has almost like an acid effect and will no doubt damage peoples hair. I found this out by mistake and done some research. (UK) bicarbonate of soda can be used as a very effective deodorant/antiperspirant and its natural and works much better that all that spray on store bought stuff ! But if you used (UK) baking soda under your arms You're gonna get Very sore Very quickly (as I found out :( They are 2 different things here, I believe one is an acid and the other an alkaline. If somebody already mentioned this I do apologize

[@PennyTovar]

+Jon Bishop wow I didn't know that! Great thing you mentioned it, now other people can know :)

[@jonbishop1385]

By the way I should have mentioned, Your Hair looks amazing ! The fact you use it like you do shows you're having amazing results ! I also take Organic apple cider vinegar both morning and night with 1/4 teaspoon of Bicarbonate soda for health benefits It helps with sleep, digestion,and a whole pile of health benefits too.No wonder your hair looks so healthy ! Take Care and thank You for your video

[@anatolimh4250]

Jon Bishop yes we in Germany have the same problem as I had to find out... the difference is baking soda vs baking powder. baking soda is pure natorn meanwhile baking powder has extra ingredients. it did make my armpits break out... good that I didn't try it on my hair

[@lalaelisha]

CupidusCompanionCube benefits of onions

[@sospeciallyme9096]

Jon Bishop I am in Australia and we have 2 products .. one is actual baking powder and the other is bicarbonated soda. Which is the one i should use please? Your comment caught my eye just as i was heading out to jump in the shower and wash my hair with the baking powder. Gulp!!! The last thing i need is to wash with the wrong ingredients and damage my new hair .. arghhhh. So thanks for this.

[@gabxo9478]

you have my DREAM hair omg

[@TheMISTERLEGACYX]

Gab xo I wish I had straight or wavy hair curly hair sucks, you can never style it, and it's hates humans

[@eypu999]

yourstripperadam why , curly looks so good on people

[@rainyocean7712]

It's soo much too maintain. Really.

[@fabulous2922]

You look like alessia cara I LOVE both of you

[@GrkG63]

ACV removes all the hard water residue from your hair... that's why your hair feels cleaner and softer than compounding the problem of residue from both hair care products AND crappy water. Well done!

[@PennyTovar]

+GrkG63 thanks for the info!

[@sandramelendez413]

would plain white vinegar work too??...its not sold where im from...

[@lelechim]

I think white vinegar would be too strong. Raw, organic, unfiltered apple cider with "The Mother" is the best to use, and it's actually pretty widely available now. CVS has their own store brand, and big box stores like Walmart and Target carry it too. You can even go on their websites to see if there are any in stock at your local store. ACV is so versatile that I actually bought an entire gallon from luckyvitamin.com.

[@Adaunveiled]

Apple Cider Vinegar is LIFE!!! I even use it as a toner for my face and it's worked wonders too!

[@PennyTovar]

I use it as a toner too!

[@Adaunveiled]

You know what's up!!! lol

[@jasminma968]

I think you could wash your hair with sand and it would still look amazing

[@tmsw111]

This is wonderful. My hair is very similar to yours. I'm friggin sick of using store bought product. I recently started making my own hair gel from boiling flax seeds and highly recommend it!

[@fatimaalkooheji5078]

I love how simple and short and to the point yet how detailed this video is. Thank you🙏🏻💕

[@sospeciallyme9096]

Thank you thank you THANK YOU for this video. I needed EXACTLY this information as this is my 3rd week of not washing my hair with anything but water and I am STILL in the 'transition' period so am reeeealllly looking forward to the results you experienced by using these products. By the way I love your hair, it is amazing!!!! Wish I had thick, curly hair like yours however one thing I have found with not washing it with shampoo & conditioner is that my normally verrrry fine, lank (although silky) flyaway frizzy ended hair has all like pulled together as a team (i know it sounds silly but it is true) and my hair is wayyyyy more voluminous and luxuriant in it's feel and look! My only problem is the oily scalp (HOWEVER it is 'meant' (quite literally) to be massaged EXTREMELY well when washed with water, not just a little bit as our head sheds skin cells as well as has oil buildup so we NEED to be (when our hair dries .. never when wet) brushing right down to the scalp and then all the way through to the ends of the hair .. to thoroughly move the oils AND dead skin cells (which is completely normal) and the sebum (natural oils) in our hair, all the way through. Our hair is MEANT to be self cleaning (go see the video of 'The Doctors' episode on my channel 'sospeciallyme' where they explain this, and dr's and specialists in the medical industry also address exactly this topic and all the pro's and con's of the 'no poo' method). This is why a lot of (but not all I guess) women believed in brushing their hair 100 brush strokes every single night. I do even more than that (my hair is about 3 inches below shoulder length now) and then braid my hair before i go to bed as i don't want it to get all knotty overnight .. and that reminds me .. that's another plus of the no poo method .. before i started doing this, i would finger comb my hair out as it just had SO SO MANY KNOTS in it when I used shampoo/conditioner AND I had major hair fall (am 51yo). But after no poo'ing (that still sounds rank lol), I hardly EVER get knots & my hair is literally (apart from the transitioning period which should be over very soon) .. my hair is literally in the best condition of my entire life!! It is thicker, stronger, has hardly any knots & while wet it isn't stretchy and AS easily broken as before, as well as it is just so soft as well and SO easy to style. Hands down the best decision I have made in years!! So thanks again for your video giving AMOUNTS of what was needed. I had heard of what to use but never any amounts and how to apply. So God bless you girl and thanks again. :)

[@elisaelezi3008]

Wow, I tried this and it made a HUGE difference. I have pics and I can't stop looking at them.

[@PennyTovar]

Yay so glad it worked for you!

[@PixelPenguin87212]

You're so naturally pretty :)

[@christinam4822]

Best No Poo Method demo video ever. Thanks Penny, your videos are always super helpful!!

[@PennyTovar]

+Christina M thank you!

[@AR-us9yd]

Thanks. You're very smart and a natural presenter!

[@PennyTovar]

+Greenpooka AR thank you :')

[@sydneyelisabeth7954]

actually, it’s better to mix in some lemon juice into the baking soda, so the pH balance is optimal for your scalp and it will prevent your hair from breaking

[@cialyncamp]

Thanks!

[@jillian3606]

how much lemon juice?

[@lexiecarter2234]

Your hair looks AMAZING! I will definitely try this out

[@Sam88677]

hey Penny, great point at the end. I never knew about the transition stage, and almost gave up cause of the build up. It lasted for almost a month, 😑 until I began adding tea tree in my no sulfate shampoo (and using a shampoo brush). FYI: that would be a great video to make for the newbies. 😉

[@madrobot_malfunction6319]

I really love your hair...so amazing. Thanks for the method in details.

[@maridantascs]

After I start no poo my hair feels so good and smooth I am loving that. But I have never try to wash with baking soda. I love your videos 😘

[@IlseAlcaraz]

I've been looking for a method like this for ages, this is awesome, thanks! ^^

[@sarasvensson3791]

Apple cider vinegar (spelling?) is awesome for irritated scalp and is my go-to dandruff magic-fix. The scalp loves ACV. :)

[@kaitlinwagenknecht6213]

Wow!!!!!!!! Your hair looks amazing!!! I might just have to try this!

[@Archi1789]

Fab video. Informative, not too long, not too short. Well done girlxx

[@stephanievizzi9147]

Your hair looks soooo amazing after this method!! I want to try this since I have rather thin hair and the more volume I can get the better!

[@corneliahanimann2173]

+Stephanie Vizzi please...do a little more research into this before you just put baking soda in your hair, it has dried out the hair of many...

[@stephanievizzi9147]

+Cornelia Hanimann straight up baking soda yes, but extremely diluted in water and followed up with something that replenishes the moisture would most likely not be as damaging. I'm sure many people have had negative results when not using these ingredients properly. THanks for the warning though 😊

[@corneliahanimann2173]

Stephanie Vizzi I'm pretty sure I read a blog where someone put baking soda into water and tested the PH strip with every cup of water she added...she almost never got out of the PH8 area so... I know it sounds so promising but this method tears up hair and baking soda alone isn't damaging...it's actually the mixture with water. I'm just saying it because many have failed with this method. you can still try

[@ccruiz76]

you have gorgeous hair! FYI.....I've done this for years and I also found helpful to put a few drops of olive oil and a few drops of peppermint oil. or your choice of essential oil. Helps moisturize your hair even more and the essential oils adds a great scent.

[@kangel8553]

My sister swears by this method and in all honesty her curls have become so much more defined ever since she started

[@BellaCinco]

Your very eloquent with your word! Love that. No bs. New sub!

[@LeviShmevi]

YOU'RE HAIR LOOKS SO GREAT

[@benjaminwelch2719]

Can U make a video about flakes, dry scalp, and itchy scalp? Cause mine won't go away!

[@benjaminwelch2719]

(also could you do multiple methods?) Thanks

[@maritzaortiz7619]

+Donatello yes I have been suffering with this for years. Please help!

[@corneliahanimann2173]

+Donatello uuuuhm I don't know if this helps because I am not sure if it helped with me... BUT a HUGE difference made a shampoo from aveda...it's expensive and with the right conditioner I haven't had so little problems for years. I used to get pimples on my scalp-sounds gross but it's an issue... and they went away mostly after I started using avedas products-they're pretty much as plant based and useful as you can get. I tried sulfate free shampoos and I would like to say it helped a little but honestly thinking back, I can't but I can definately say that there is improvement with the aveda shampoo. so that might help-at least a little

[@elaineronning3638]

I have the same problem! I second this request.

[@aidabellrohena6272]

she has a video about that

[@zxsoundz]

Yup i definetly saw a diffrence i compared your hair in the beginning of the video and the last of the video i saw it was more fluffy it was a bit longer and your curls showed up beautifully i personally have curly hair that comes 1 inch before my but or maybe 2 and this method definitely helped my hair get less damaged and fluffy and stronger i love your vids so much your the best curly girl that gives actually good advice for curls

[@danimarie9421]

Your hair looks gorgeous!

[@SarcasticQuokka]

My shampoo and conditioner bars have just run out and to save money + have less waste hair routine I've been looking into this. Really informative and I like the little demonstration of where to put each spray :) Really curious if you still use this method 2.5 years later?

[@roystem]

Thanks! This was exactly what I was looking for! Love your hair btw ;)

[@selfsessions3515]

I love how I read this while she said "this might be just what you're looking for" 💯

[@nicolec2713]

I love ur videos soooo much can u do a review and demo on the Shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie 😘💞

[@tessanewson6090]

yep I totally agree. thx again for another amazing video!

[@fizamaqbool8163]

YOUR HAIR ARE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL

[@Hi-mf3dd]

Hi @curlypenny I just watched this video a few hours ago n decided to try it n I must say. WOW!! I followed the instructions n immediately after I started spraying my hair with the baking soda it made it really soft n I've been wearing my hair in an afro all week n it was seriously tangled. My hair now feel soft n I was surprised how soft n light weight it felt while rinsing it out. I'm using this all the time now. Yes girl!!

[@PennyTovar]

so happy for you!

[@Hi-mf3dd]

thanks. 😁

[@pal_pal_]

wow it gave a really nice fluffy look. I wanted to reach out and feel it! :-)

[@Abadiyoutube]

When your hair gets “adjusted” how often should you wash it?

OMG I'm gonna try this!

[@PennyTovar]

Good luck :D

[@yarafarrag4815]

+Abigail Nicole yeah i know thank you

[@sofiad3687]

How did it go?

[@C31iia]

I did this method for a year, although it was nice i noticed my hair started thinning out, but I've heard it works well with others so, pay attention to your hair if you do this method.

[@C31iia]

Also in the first month if you have been using shampoo it will take a while for your hair to get used to this method. But remember this is just what i experienced for my hair :) love your vidddeos penny xx

[@devyn16]

Could you do a video on how to naturally lighten your hair? Btw your channel is so helpful :)

[@brandym7891]

I did this for the first time today. My hair is super voluminous and soft. But my scalp is a little irritated. Depending on your hair type I think once a month as a clarifying wash is good enough. Any more than that will probably damage your hair in the long run.

[@Elisa-Winstonbunbun]

I love using apple cider v once a month it cleans my hair and scalp and it has bounce and shine after.

[@lelechim]

I've used a 50/50 mix of ACV and water in a hair color applicator bottle in place of shampoo, then co-washed. It works pretty well :) Since I have oily roots, I probably would have no success with co-washing if I did not pre-cleanse with ACV. I haven't heard of using it as a conditioner. I don't think it would be moisturizing enough, even though my hair is not particularly dry! I've yet to try baking soda on my hair.

[@tinabird87]

This is Amazing! Thank you!

[@gymnasticsgirl101]

Oh my god! I love your hair!!!

[@MMelanie19fly]

Your hair is beautiful !

[@smithbullock3802]

LOVE UR VIDS. THANKZ 4 THE INFO.

[@martinamartinkova3141]

Hi thank you for this viedo I have never heard about this method but my question is: Can do this every time instead of using shampoo? (sorry for english)

[@coraliepython1291]

I will try it! Do you need to do oil bath for curly hair once a month?

[@KB-pd4vv]

I'm scared to try this since I keep reading ppl comments about don't use baking soda/: ugh. But i want to try so badly for my hair!

[@KB-pd4vv]

I'll try it! thank you :)))

[@Noladawlin]

This method really works best with hair that has African "kink" or is really thick and "ethnic". Black women use moisturizers and oils daily. White and Asian women can not use the same oils and moisturizers b/c oftentimes these same moisturizers and oils are far too heavy or make their hair oily, especially not on a daily basis. I've had very good results with this method and my son's dandruff has disappeared. I do agree with the post above where someone mentioned using a lower ACV ratio to not damage the hair. Instead of half and half, perhaps 1/3 or even 1/4 ACV to the water ratio. Within a week I saw a growth from my crown of 3/4 an inch. Hope this helps.

[@starletjackson5359]

Do this like once a week. So it won't dry your hair out. I usually do this on a Monday. It's great ❤️

[@chemaaLechgar]

It's not the actual banking soda it's bicarbonate of soda

i tried to use AVC as a conditioner and I loved how there was no frizz in my curls, and how tight my curls turned out bc usually they are ruind after showering BUT my roots went really flat. i mean the curls started at my ear length, should I avoid putting it into my scalp or something?

[@lv7925]

How often do you wash your hair? How do you keep the shape of your curls without having oil & etc weigh it down using the no poo method?

[@erinadams4802]

How do you detangle your hair? My daughter has curls like yours, and at 7 I'm still trying to figure out what to do with her hair!

[@renesmaerivera6481]

[@LotusFlowerLife]

I usually just use ACV+Water but I'll def remember to try baking soda for next time😍

How can you store the bottles? Do they need to be kept in the fridge or are they ok in the shower?
