Vinegar will make your hair shine! Mix 1/2 cup in a cup of warm water, rub through hair and then rinse. The vinegar will clean your hair of product build ups. I found out Fit Vegetable Spray has the same ingredients (except fragrance) that the very expensive salon clarifier has.

Way back in the dark ages, I would put vinegar in my babies diapers (this of course was before disposals) to make sure all soap residue was out to prevent diaper rash. It really works great.

Ok silly question. If the vinegar removes soap don't it stop the detergent from working? do you put it in the rinse??

k - you put it in the rinse cycle. I used it for my children's cloth diapers. And yes, that has only been 2 years ago. Some still use cloth diapers and save the difference!

I used cloth 21 years ago.

I use it in my towels. Also read that you can put it in your dishwasher where you put your rinse aid instead of using the rinse aid.
