Hello friends,  I have another review for you.  This one is from Maple Holistic and it's the apple cider vinegar shampoo.  We have all heard about the health benefits of apple cider vinegar and that is a totally different post but today we are talking in your shampoo.  The claims--- Remove buildup, restore volume and boost shine with our new, hotly anticipated apple cider vinegar shampoo. One of the most powerful ingredients in personal care, apple cider vinegar provides a variety of benefits for hair and scalp alike. We tap into its full potential in our apple cider vinegar shampoo, providing you with a shampoo that soothes the scalp, removes buildup, clarifies and adds or restores shine. Enriched with natural ingredients like sunflower, argan and jojoba oil, our apple cider vinegar shampoo is sulfate and paraben-free making it great for all hair types, color treated hair, and sensitive skin. Ok so now for my thoughts.  I usually only wash my hair once a week. ...
