Instead of pouring stale beer down the drain, put it on your head! The protein, B vitamins, and sugar will give your hair unbeatable body and shine.

To complete this How-To you will need:

1 to 2 bottles beer
A large bowl
A spray bottle
Essential oil, such as rosemary, lemon, or calendula
Chamomile tea

Step 1: Pour beer into bowl

Pour beer into a bowl large enough to fit your head.

Tip: Wait until it's flat and warm. Flat beer doesn't smell of alcohol.

Step 2: Soak

Place the bowl in the sink or shower area. Soak your hair in the beer for five minutes, working it through your hair with your hands.

Tip: Add a few drops of essential oils for extra conditioning and shine, and for great-smelling hair

Step 3: Rinse, shampoo, condition

Rinse off the beer with warm water and condition your hair as usual.

Tip: To avoid any residual beer smell, rinse with cool chamomile tea.

Step 4: Spritz and style

Use a spray bottle and spritz beer onto damp hair before blow-drying and styling. It will give your 'do hold and shine.
