Give thanks
Now when jessep86 says "no toxic chemicals" and Jahcub I says "there is natural ways of using and extracting chemicals; without the synthetic and artifical extractions" what do you think about washing I locs with the apple cider vinegar and baking soda? I normally do aloe wash, but I think baking soda / vinegar washing gets all the dirt out of I locs and that's why I like to use it infrequently.
If we research pure baking soda it contains natron
"Natron is a naturally occurring mixture of sodium carbonate decahydrate (Na2CO3ยท10H2O, a kind of soda ash) and around 17% sodium bicarbonate (also called baking soda, NaHCO3) along with small quantities of sodium chloride and sodium sulfate."
"Sodium carbonate is the inorganic compound with the formula Na2CO3 and its various hydrates. All forms are white, water-soluble salts. All forms have a strongly alkaline taste and give moderately alkaline solutions in water. Historically it was extracted from the ashes of plants growing in sodium-rich soils. Because the ashes of these sodium-rich plants were noticeably different from ashes of wood (once used to produce potash), sodium carbonate became known as "soda ash".
At the same time I do not see it as toxic as I don't know how it should affect I locs. Zayloc is a rasta and he use it too. But I still wa fi get your opinion on baking soda
