Product Overview
Our Summer Rain™ Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) Rinse begins with a base of pure, undiluted raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar—not a water‑first formula.
Because it’s fully concentrated, you can dilute it to the strength your hair prefers, creating a rinse that feels light, fresh, and tailored to your routine.
Each bottle is infused with organic horsetail, rosemary, nettle, burdock root, lavender, and basil. These herbs have long histories in traditional hair care for helping the hair and scalp feel clean, balanced, and refreshed. Their infusion adds a light herbal note that rounds out the natural brightness of apple cider vinegar.
How an ACV Rinse Supports the Hair and Scalp
Apple cider vinegar helps lift away buildup from styling products, hard water, and excess oils, leaving the hair feeling lighter and easier to manage. Its natural acidity helps smooth the hair cuticle, which can reduce tangles and give the hair a softer, more reflective finish. Because it doesn’t weigh the hair down, a vinegar rinse can help curls and waves fall into their natural pattern with more definition.
This rinse pairs beautifully with natural shampoo bars, helping restore balance after cleansing and leaving the hair feeling clean, smooth, and refreshed.
Because the formula contains no added water, you’re getting a pure, customizable rinse that lets you choose the strength that feels best for your hair. Dilute it more for everyday use, or mix a slightly stronger solution when your hair needs a deeper reset.
Essential Oil Blend
You will notice the familiar scent of vinegar at first—that’s simply the sign of a true, undiluted apple cider vinegar rinse. The essential oils don’t mask the vinegar; they add a fresh aromatic layer that complements the natural base.
Our Summer Rain blend combines lavender, rosemary, ylang ylang, and thyme essential oils to create a clean, fresh herbal aroma with soft floral notes—light enough to let the vinegar do its work, yet present enough to make the rinse feel like a quiet moment of care.
The essential oils in our ACV rinses do more than add scent. They are traditionally used in hair care to help keep the scalp feeling balanced, refreshed, and comfortable.
Fresh scalp. Smooth hair. Natural shine.The calm scent after a Summer Rain.

How To Use
How to Use an ACV Hair Rinse
Our herbal vinegar rinse is a concentrate and must be diluted before use.

- After shampooing, pour or spray the diluted rinse through wet hair.
- Massage gently into hair and scalp, and allow it to sit for a minute or two.
- Rinse thoroughly with cool water and towel dry.
The vinegar scent will fade as your hair dries.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why Raw Apple Cider Vinegar?
Why Raw Apple Cider Vinegar for the Hair Rinses?
Although plain white vinegar may work, Apple Cider Vinegar seems to be the favorite hair care vinegar. Some say that wine vinegars may be less drying for those with dry scalp conditions.
The process for making apple cider vinegar begins with the juice of fresh apples. Bacteria and yeast added to the juice begin the fermentation process which breaks down fructose, the naturally occurring fruit sugar, into alcohol.
The alcohol is converted to vinegar (which means “sour wine” in French) by acetic acid-forming bacteria.
The natural raw non-pasteurized vinegar is packed with nutrients. It appears cloudy with stringy stuff and sediment on the bottom due to the "mother" which contains the natural bacteria and enzymes that make this product so wonderful.
We only use organic raw apple cider vinegar with "mother." The difference between raw apple cider vinegar and a commercial clear vinegar brand is that the commercial vinegar is heated, distilled, and clarified. This processing removes much of the naturally occurring bacteria, nutrients, and living enzymes, thus stripping away the natural benefits.

How Often Can I Use An Apple Cider Vinegar Hair Rinse?
Since everyone's hair is unique you must use your own judgment.
Remember--dry hair likes less vinegar and oily hair likes more.
For most people a using a vinegar rinse every day will be quite drying. It is best to restrict use to 1 to 2 times per week.
The amount of water you add to the vinegar, the dilution rate, will also affect how often it can be used as well as whether it is drying to your hair. You will need to experiment to find a dilution that works best for your hair type. Always start with a very dilute rinse in order to find the proper ratio for your hair.
If you like a bit of vinegar with each washing, a spritz with a very dilute rinse may work.
Some Helpful Hints
- While you can use any container to make your vinegar rinse, I like a plastic squirt top bottle. It is easier to squirt it all over my scalp and then massage it through, rather than pouring it all over my head from a cup. Recycle any clean plastic bottle with a squirt top.
- Pouring a cold rinse on your hair may be a more invigorating experience than you would like. (Although if you're feeling brave, the cold water will give your hair added shine.) If you would like a warmer rinse, make it just before you step in the shower using very warm tap water.

What Do Herbs Infused In Vinegar Do?
Why Do We Infuse Herbs Into Our ACV Rinses
Nature's herbs and botanicals have a life force of their own.
The vinegar extracts the healing and soothing phytochemicals from medicinal herbs and botanicals.
Basil, Ocimum basilicum, stimulates hair follicles, increases scalp circulation and promotes hair growth. Basil helps protect hair from breakage, its anti-inflammatory properties help soothe the roots and it adds luster to dull hair.
Burdock, Arctium lappa, nourishes and strengthens hair follicles, to promote healthy hair growth and improve the condition of hair. It helps soothe irritated scalp conditions, decrease breakage and adds sheen, body & luster. The mucilage in burdock root adds “slip” to hair to make detangling easier.
Horsetail, Equisetum arvense, is nourishing and hydrating, stimulates the scalp and has been used for centuries as a hair growth herb. The silica in horsetail helps to keep hair strong and adds shine and luster to hair.
Lavender, Lavendula officinalis, has anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and antifungal properties that may help with irritated scalp conditions and hair loss. It helps balance oil production as is a great herb for all hair types.
Nettle, Urtica dioica, stimulates the scalp, improves circulation, helps decrease breakage and promotes body, bounce, and shine. Nettle hair rinses are an old remedy to help reduce hair loss and encourage hair growth. Nettles balance oil production and help with dandruff.
Rosemary, Rosemarinus officinalis, encourages the growth of strong healthy hair by improving blood flow to the scalp. The stimulating and revitalizing properties of rosemary help increase manageability, add shine, and condition the hair and scalp.

Does Everyone Need To Use A Vinegar Hair Rinse?
Do I Need A Vinegar Rinse When Using a Natural Shampoo Bar?
Whether or not you need to use an apple cider vinegar (ACV) rinse depends on a number of factors.
- Your water: If your hair does not seem to be adjusting to the shampoo bars, it may be due to your water. Hard water makes it more difficult to rinse natural shampoo from your hair.
- Hair length: Many of our male customers and women with short hair have found that they do not need to rinse with vinegar, simply because their hair is short.
- Tangles: ACV rinses often help with tangles.
- Residue: If your hair has residue from previous products or you regularly use conditioners, styling gels etc., our shampoo bars are mild and may not remove residue from your hair like detergent shampoos. ACV rinses help remove build-up and product residue.
- Hair type: Everyone's hair is unique.
Check out our selection of ACV Rinses
I wish I could use an apple cider vinegar (ACV) rinse very day. Besides creating tangle-free locks, I also love the way it makes my hair look and feel. As I have gotten older my hair has become drier and I can only use an ACV rinse 2 or 3 times week.
