Dr. Bronner's soaps clean your hair and scalp amazingly well, but they can also leave your hair feeling tangly and matted.

Yes, but I would recommend if you're going to use them both (for washing dishes) then I would suggest washing with soap and then dipping into vinegar water as a “rinse” because the soap will get grease, oil, etc off and then the vinegar would kill most germs. But there's no dangerous byproduct of mixing the two.
