    Acidity refers to the level of acid in a substance, typically measured by the pH scale, where lower values indicate higher acidity. In the context of hair and scalp health, maintaining a balanced pH is crucial as excessive acidity or alkalinity can lead to issues like dryness, irritation, or even hair loss.
