I did the bs/acv this morning. Mixed vinegar:water ratio of 1:4. Stood under the shower and drained the hot water heater, rinsing (with water) and squeezing each individual dread.

And now I smell like feet.

Ack! Was my ratio wrong?

Did you mix the bs in with your water/acv mixture? From my understanding, the vinegar is to be separate, after the bs/water wash.

I did not mix the bs and acv. I honestly didn't soak for too long, a few minutes each is all.

Nah, I wash about once a week or so.

I did rinse the bs first.

And soak for 10 minutes??? My whole shower doesn't take that long! I guess I'll have to take a tub next time.

As my hair's drying, the feet smell is going away. I had to run to town soon after I showered today, so I pulled my hair back which means my hair doesn't dry at all. As soon as I let it down and it's started to dry, the feet smell is going away...thankfully. lol!

I know. But it's cold here. :P Loose, wet hair on a cold trip to town did not appeal to me.
