Why is apple cider vinegar used for hair fall?

Apple cider vinegar is useful for natural alopecia treatment. The administration of this solution can treat many kinds of scalp and hair problems like split ends, hair breakage, hair damage, and hair fall.

• pH level regulation:

  Apple cider vinegar possesses a host of different organic acids like acetic acid, citric acid, and lactic acid which contribute to the maintenance of the pH level of the scalp. The preservation of pH balance is essential for the prevention of hair fall and the treatment of dandruff scalp and lice.

   

• Chemical buildup elimination:

  Modern hair care products tend to cause a buildup of chemical residue on the scalp. This combines with sebum secreted by the scalp and causes hair fall and hair damage. When apple cider vinegar is applied on the scalp topically, it helps in the removal of this residue. It does this without losing the natural oils and sebum. Thus, this prevents the dryness of the scalp and hair fall.

   

• Scalp hydration:

  When you apply watered-down apple cider vinegar topically, it helps hydrate the scalp, treat any dry blisters and dandruff that causes hair loss.
