: I use vinegar as a rinse before I do any color to roughen up the
: hair's mantle-(open the 'pores').
I don't get this - vinegar is supposed to close the cuticle, not open it?

: From what I understand, henna is better if used with an acid ph and
: indigo is better with an alkaline ph.

will have to do something with this. not with opening the cuticle.
