It is advisable to use it once or twice a month at most.\n<li><strong>Hair Type Compatibility: Baking soda is more suitable for those with oily hair types. If you have dry, curly, or brittle hair, it may be too harsh and could worsen dryness.\n<li><strong>Moisture Loss: Always condition your hair regularly, as baking soda can impact moisture balance.\n\n<h3>Conclusion\n</h3><p>A baking soda rinse can be an effective natural way to deeply cleanse the scalp and remove build-up, but it is essential to monitor your hair\u2019s response carefully. Using it sparingly and following up with an apple cider vinegar rinse will help minimize dryness. Consider using this rinse only once or twice a month and ensure you\u2019re hydrating your hair properly.\n</p><div id='\"quads-ad1624\"' class='\"quads-location' quads-ad1624 data-lazydelay='\"0\"'>\n<div id='\"M821028ScriptRootC1341035_12d90\"'>\n<div id='\"AdskeeperComposite1341035_12d90\"'>\n<div>\n<div class='\"mgbox\"'>\n<div class='\"mgheader\"'>\n\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baking soda rinse can be a natural alternative to traditional shampoos, ideal for those looking for a DIY hair care solution.
