The following are some of the products that I have on hand at all times in my kitchen because they serve so many different functions. Not only are they inexpensive but they WORK. Most, if not every single one, of these is already in your home. This is definitely not an exhaustive list of the products I use but if you’re trying to take a step in the direction of improving your fiscal as well as overall health, these products are good for both your body and your budget.
Apple Cider Vinegar
I’ll bet you didn’t know that one of the best things you can do for your hair is to incorporate apple cider vinegar rinses into your hair routine. I personally only use Bragg’s ACV because it has the “Mother” (that stuff that settles at the bottom and makes it cloudy). I like to use this rinse before washing, if I have a lot of product build up or between shampooing and conditioning if my hair is fairly “gunk free”. Depending on how much hair you have, I suggest using anywhere from 8 to 12 oz. of warm water and I like to use 3 parts water to 1 part ACV. Not only is it a natural conditioner but there are enzymes in the acid of ACV which kill the bacteria that causes dandruff. Used regularly ACV keeps your hair soft, shiny, and flake free.
