Beer Shampoo - I found this online

I can hear your thoughts now “Beer shampoo...why beer?”

I bet you probably think of beer as Saturday afternoon refreshment after a long day of lawn mowing, but if you’ve never thought about using it in your hair I have a little information to share with you.

Beer is actually a very old hair care secret or treatment that people have used over the years.

Here are just a few of the claims made about what it does.

  • Makes hair grow faster.
  • Helps hair to be shiny.
  • Give hair body.
Of course there’s no official study done or scientific claims to back any of this up...but I’m sure you know the old saying ‘belief kills and belief cures’.

Beer is made with Brewer’s Yeast which contains a lot of vitamin B, perhaps that’s why it’s been hailed as a hair growth aid (B vitamins are essential for good hair growth).

Beer Shampoo Recipe


So, how exactly is beer shampoo made and used?
 
Beer shampoo is actually very easy to make so don’t go thinking that you have to go out and set up your own brewery. You can use any brand of beer, cheap or expensive and it can either be fresh or stale, it doesn’t really matter.
 
Here is what you need:
1 cup Beer
1 cup Shampoo
Small Pot
Bottle
 
  1. Put the cup of beer into the small saucepan and boil on low-medium heat until the beer is reduced to a quarter of what you started out with (this gets rid of the alcohol content that can dry your hair out).
  2. Combine the reduced liquid and your cup of regular shampoo in an empty bottle. Mix thoroughly.
 
It’s that simple and you’re ready to use it just as you would any other shampoo. A good time to do that would be right before wet setting since it gives your hair extra body and shine.
 
If nothing else, it’s something to do with beer you would have otherwise thrown out. If you try it, drop me a line and let me know how your hair turns out!
