Lol, people who are going crazzy about baking soda, lets stop and think for a moment. We use water in our hair faithfully (I would assume) and water has a pH level of 7. Baking soda, which is sodium bicarbonate has a pH of 8.4-8.5 MAX...So now lets think; you mean to tell me that from something like water that I use everyday with a pH of 7 to baking soda with a pH of 8.5 MAX one is "frying" or "killing" their hair?? :/ 1.5 difference at most is not going to make nobody's "blow up kit" haha.

@naturalbygolly LOL so funny and so true. LOL

Baking soda is chemically similar to using a relaxer, just a lighter strength. You are basically texturizing your hair. Like a blow up kit.

Are you still using these treatments? I've been getting mixed reviews. Only thing I didn't see if you rinsed w/ACV after. Having difficulty w/ low porosity and found info on using baking soda. I wanna try but I also wanted your honest opinion on it. Thanks

Some people should really do their research before commenting on videos.

Baking soda does not alter your hair texture - and if a person's hair is dry - it's because they forgot to add in their moisture.

Most naturals use baking soda in their co-washes too. Baking soda is more beneficial than using shampoo. smh - the things some people say.

I would never do this to my hair you should stop your hair looks extra dry
