Yeah, I'm sure you're right. I (probably naively) thought the baking soda/apple cider vinegar routine wouldn't cause buildup. My hair, alas, is not curly, it is straight and shows every iota of grease.
(I, too, use just conditioner between baking soda wash days, so maybe that's what was causing the buildup.)
I, and my meridian-straight fine hair, salute you!
(grin)
I have to use shampoo-plus-light-conditioner like Pert Plus because ANY separate conditioner drags my hair down into a flat, heavy mess. And without a touch of conditioner?
