If it doesn't feel like the baking soda has dissolved, it hasn't coated the hair and broken up the excess oil it. If you find your baking soda never dissolves, you can be using too much or it could be the baking soda is too old and you need a new box. Working it through your hair with your hands helps to dissolve it, as does partially dissolving it in your hand before you even put it in your hair. Hope this helps! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18444788544505046358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8295653876722778018.post-4505416257744568152014-01-08T18:21:35.820-05:002014-01-08T18:21:35.820-05:00ACV is best because it gives the best results but ...ACV is best because it gives the best results but white will work as well.

Dandruff and that itchy feeling come from a too dry/irritated scalp and too much baking soda can do that. If you find that spacing them out causes your hair to become too oily, you can sprinkle dry shampoo on your roots and use a boar bristle brush to battle that. If that still doesn't work for you, you can premix your baking soda with water in a squeeze bottle and that could alleviate it. Hope this helps!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18444788544505046358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8295653876722778018.post-75769364503407333592014-01-07T18:35:05.114-05:002014-01-07T18:35:05.114-05:00So to wash your hair with this method you do it on...So to wash your hair with this method you do it once a week?? what do you do every other day when you shower just get it wet with no product or do this method everyday?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18444788544505046358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8295653876722778018.post-5336030088274925242014-01-07T14:56:52.448-05:002014-01-07T14:56:52.448-05:00Awesome!Awesome!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18444788544505046358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8295653876722778018.post-58007141769291424352014-01-07T14:55:42.294-05:002014-01-07T14:55:42.294-05:00Thanks!Thanks!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18444788544505046358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8295653876722778018.post-13063917322260515012014-01-06T10:12:38.477-05:002014-01-06T10:12:38.477-05:00I don't understand the whole slippery feeling?...I don't understand the whole slippery feeling?

Usually dandruff is caused by a dry and irritated scalp. Baking soda is gentle on your hair and will keep all of your healthy sebum on the scalp to keep dandruff from forming.

You do want your hand wet when you reach into the baking soda because that's what will stick it to your fingers and start dissolving it. I just meant that I choose to keep mine in this container to keep steam from clumping it every time someone takes a shower. If dipping your hands in there wets any more baking soda than what you're using and that causes it to clump, shake the container and it will break up any clumps; that's not a big deal. You don't have to use this container, it just makes it easier for me than having a soggy cardboard box.

But my hair is soft and looks clean, and it's saving me a ton of time in the morning as it seems like it takes half the time to blow dry it (another bonus...less heat-related stress on the hair!)<br /><br />One question though...since it's January, and I live in DC, staticy hair is a real thing. And since I'm not using regular conditioner, I feel like my hair has way more static than every before. Am I just using too much baking soda? Or is there another way to add moisture? It doesn't seem to get any better even after a few days of not cleaning it, which I thought it would because of the oil in my hair. Any suggestions?<br /><br />Thanks again! You're amazing :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18444788544505046358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8295653876722778018.post-48366691179716808072014-01-01T01:40:31.824-05:002014-01-01T01:40:31.824-05:00my hair still felt a bit itchy at first when i rin...my hair still felt a bit itchy at first when i rinsed off the baking soda but now after i finished washing it feels good!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18444788544505046358noreply@blogger.com
