Natural Remedies: How to cure dandruff with apple vinegar cider

Are you tired of scratching your hair because of dandruff? Don't think too far, apple cider vinegar can fight off dandruff.

Apple Cider Vinegar is made from apples {healthline}

Although apple cider vinegar is used to cook meals like salads, it is also a valuable home remedy because of its antimicrobial and antioxidant properties.

Apple cider vinegar is gotten from fermented apple juice.

It is made by crushing apples and squeezing out the juice and letting it ferment for three-six weeks. Fermented apple juice then turns into acetic acid, known as vinegar.

Although, you do not have to make it yourself, you can buy it in the supermarket.
